OUR CHILDREN are a vital part of the church. They are not an inconvenience to be “watched” while we do church; they are the church, a precious responsibility and privilege, the future of the church, the city and the world.
We are committed to supporting families in raising their children. We believe this is best done in community by exposing children to diverse relationships of all ages, which happens primarily through City Groups. In addition, we equip parents to raise thier kids through gospel-centered teaching and training, as well as by developing teachers to provide great, age-focused Kids Life ministry during our Sunday gatherings.

Sundays About our classes
We offer classes for babies through 5th grade. When you arrive, visit our hospitality room to register your children using our digital check in system. From there, our volunteers will direct you toward your child’s classroom. Each classroom will have at least two teachers (one of whom is female, in accordance with our Child Protection Policy) to welcome your children.

Safety About our Child Protection Policy
Our Child Protection Policy is in place to keep our kids safe. This means we do everything from background checking all caregivers and keeping careful classroom adult to child ratios, to enforcing healthy-child guidelines to asking to see identification when you pick up after service. When you check your child into their class, an alphanumeric label will print with their nametags. Please save this and present it to your child(ren)’s teachers at the end of the service.
F.A.Q.
The last Sunday of each month* is 'Family Worship'. We will only have Kids Life services for infants and toddlers these days and are excited to welcome the older children into our main gathering.
