Worship

Sundays at 11:00! Children begin in the front pew in worship.  Listening to the first few songs and hearing The Word directly for them, children then proceed with trained leaders to learn and experience The Bible “Buzz”!  Kids learn in different ways. Every lesson with Buzz provides a unique learning experience using 4-5 of the 8 multiple intelligences. Kids will understand and remember the lesson topics better because they will be engaged in experiences in which they feel gifted. Buzz has a unique theme every quarter that teaches a mix of classic and uncommon Bible stories that kids haven’t heard before–which impacts their faith and changes their lives. This evolves, enhances, supports, and enlarges the quality of relationships in other activities for children and their families.  Join us at 11:00 every Sunday.

Discipleship

Sunday school for Children isn’t like the days past, we don’t sit at desks to learn. NO..we stand, we march, we touch and smell and listen.  It’s Hands On…What if Jesus taught your kids? How would he do it? What tools would he use? What would he want them to learn and remember?  The Bible gives us lots of examples of how Jesus did it 2,000 years ago. He used everyday objects like coins, fish, and plants to help people remember the truths he shared with them.  Hands-On Bible Curriculum does the same thing. We call them “gizmos,” and they serve the same purpose: to help kids understand important Bible truths. It worked for Jesus, and it still works today. Join us at 9:45 every Sunday and jump into the fun of learning about Jesus, God and our Bible.  
We have two Nursery Ministry staff who care for our Infants through Pre-school, in addition to a wonderful group of volunteers.  Nursery (Newborn through two years) and our Preschool (3-5 years old) is available at 9:30 am through all Worship services on Sundays.  We also offer Nursery Ministry at different events, Wednesday Night Live, special worship services and much more.  Our Nursery Ministry is located on the first level of the building, near our playground. Parents must remain on the premises when their children are in the care of the Nursery staff.
Our Children’s Committee wants to honor our families and volunteers and encourage our families to worship together several time a year.  As such, we use the Fifth Sundays as Worship with your Family Sundays.  We do not hold Sunday School nor Children’s Church, instead we have a Worship Activity Center available in the Narthex for 8:30 and 11:00 worship and in the hallway near the restrooms for The Mount. Included in the Worship Activity Centers are Children’s Worship Bulletins and Sermon Notes, plus several fun things do keep fingers engaged!  Please stop by and pick-up a few items to borrow and return for worship!

We have a Check in process for all Children, Infant through 5th grade. Please stop by the Check-in Kiosk and register your children.  First time visitors will be asked to complete a registration form.  We strive to provide a safe, engaging environment for all events. We will require all children to wash their hands and/or hand sanitize their hands before entering the classroom.  All children must have a name tag from the Children’s Check-in Station prior to entering the classroom.  Children dropped off for Nursery through Fifth grade will also have their temperatures taken prior to entering the room.  All our Nursery workers are required (during Covid19) to wear a mask and gloves. Nursery workers and Children’s Sunday School Teachers will be cleared for any temperature prior to working on Sunday morning. Our Check-in process is one of our best practices for a Safe Sanctuary.
