Our Mission
We are honored to partner with you as you introduce your children to God’s unconditional love. Our goal is to challenge every child to grow in their love for Him and for others through foundational spiritual formation created specifically with them in mind.
Our Programs
J.A.M.
Nursery & Preschool
In J.A.M., we provide a safe, nurturing environment where our youngest members begin their journey of faith. Through play, story, and song, we focus on the foundational truth of God’s unconditional love.
KidzConnection
Kindergarten - 5th grade
Elementary students dive deeper into God's Big Story using the WonderInk Curriculum. This engaging program takes kids on a journey of Curiosity, Belief, Faith, and Identity each week, helping them understand they are:
- Known by God
- Loved by Jesus
- Led by the Holy Spirit
Family Worship Sundays (Once a Month):
One Sunday of every month, our KidzConnection students join the "big church" for service. We believe it's vital for children to see their parents and community worshiping together. Check the calendar to see when our Family Sundays occur.
Safety and Security
Your child’s safety is our top priority so that you can worship with peace of mind.
- Secure Check-In: We use ChurchTrac for a secure, streamlined check-in process. Every child receives an ID sticker, and parents receive a matching security pickup label.
- Trusted Volunteers: Every volunteer in our children's ministry has undergone a thorough background check and screening process.
- Instant Communication: If your child needs you during the service, we can notify you instantly via text message.
Year Round Fun and Growth
We love to laugh, play, and serve together through special events throughout the year:
- Vacation Bible School: A high-energy week in the summer filled with games, crafts, and deep-dives into the Bible.
- Summer Church Camp: A dedicated time for our K-5th graders to build lifelong friendships and grow their faith in the great outdoors.
- Special Events: From our annual Easter Egg Hunt to our Family Park nights, we create spaces for families to connect and have fun.
- Community Outreach: We teach children to love "His people" through hands-on service projects, such as our annual Backpack Giveaway or Beautiful Feet events or participating in other mission projects.
What to Expect
We want your first morning to be as smooth as possible! Since our children’s programs are located in dedicated spaces separate from the main sanctuary, here is how to find us:
- Head to the Kids' Buildings: Follow the signs to Building 2 (J.A.M. Preschool) or Building 3 (KidzConnection Elementary).
- Convenient Check-In: You’ll find our check-in kiosks right inside the entrance of each building. A friendly volunteer will be there to help you register your family and print your security tags.
- Straight to Class: Because check-in happens right where the classrooms are, your child’s teacher will be there to welcome them immediately!
- Worship & Pickup: Once your child is settled, you can head over to the main building for service. After service, simply return to the kids' building and show your matching security tag for a safe checkout.
We would love for your children to check out the fun, as they laugh, play, and learn more and more about God's incredible love for their lives!
