For our Children
As a community, we cherish children not just because they are the future of our church; we cherish them because they are a full part of our community right here and right now. We are delighted to offer numerous ways for our children to connect - with one another, with those in our church, and with God.

Each Sunday in 10am Worship
Children are always welcome in our worship services, with their wiggles, giggles and all!
Worship bags filled with coloring sheets, manipulatives, and more are available for all children when they enter the sanctuary. There is also a shelf of books children may choose from to bring into worship. Children are invited to the front of the Sanctuary during the Time for Children near the beginning of the service. Please be aware that if you do not want your child to be on the live-stream of the service, they need to sit down at the bottom of the stairs. After the Time for Children, children are escorted to the Children's Wing for Godly Play. Outdoor play will be also available when the weather permits. Nursery care for infants and toddlers is available each Sunday from 9:45 to 11:15am. Special note: On the first Sunday of the month, childcare for all ages is available from 8:30-9:15am for those parents who wish to attend the 8:30am Service (held outdoors on the 1st Sunday of the month when weather permits). |
Each Sunday: Worship and Wonder
The four rooms in our Children's Wing are clean and bright and always ready to welcome the creativity and curiosity of children!

Second Sunday Socials
Each month, we create a time of fellowship and fun for folks in our church. We call this our "Second Sunday Socials" and most often we meet up at Aviator Pizza and Drafthouse (just down the road from the church at 4005 W. Parmer Ln.) to enjoy lunch and time together. The restaurant has a playground and is very kid-friendly. Sometimes we plan an on-campus event on the second Sunday. This time gives everyone, especially our young families, an opportunity to visit and connect beyond our normal offerings.
Upcoming:
May 14: No Second Sunday Social due to Mother's Day
