Children's Church - 10:45am Service

Children's Church is a special time every Sunday for children ages 4 to 10 years old during the 10:45am Worship Services. The children start out with their families during the beginning of the 10:45am Worship Service. Then, after the Praise Music portion of the Worship Service (about 15-20 minutes into the service), the worship leader announces that it's time for Children's Church to start. At that time the Children's Church teachers lead the children from the Worship Service to one of two age-specific Children's Church services: children ages 4 through 6 are in Room 6, and children ages 7 thru 10 are in Room 5.

Nursery Care

Nursery care is offered during the 9AM Worship Service in Room 5 from 9am to 10am, and again at the 10:45am Worship Service following the Praise Music until the conclusion of the service.

Upon arrival at the Nursery, please sign-in and make sure you have labeled your belongings.  If you have not registered your child before, you will be asked to fill out a registration form. This form ensures that we have all the necessary information regarding your child's needs and preferences, including any food allergies.

If your child has any special needs, please inform the nursery attendant when you sign in.

The Peanut Gallery - 10:45am Service

The Peanut Gallery is a room that is offered for parents who wish to remain with their child during 10:45am service. The Peanut Gallery has large windows looking out to the Worship Center which allows you to view our Celebration Service, and we have installed speakers so you also can hear the entire service.
