Our Mission
Partnering with parents, we strive to help kids know and love Jesus, become more like Him, and share Him with others.
First Visit with the Kids
Take advantage of one or all of these offerings on your first visit. Here's what you can expect when visiting KidZone with your kids:
Kids’ Church 9:50ish-10:40ish: Kids 4 years thru 4th Grade
Before going to ‘Big Church’ with you at 9:30 am, stop at the Kids’ Check-in Table to check in your child. Affix the label to your child and save the pick-up portion to get your child after Kids’ Church. They will be dismissed to Kids’ Church about 9:50 am, and can be picked up after 'Big Church,' if your child is 2nd Grade or younger.
Cookie Time… 10:40 am-11:00 am: Coffee and cookies for all in the lobby upstairs!
All-Church Come for More Groups 11:00 am-11:45 am: 45 minutes of age-specific learning of God’s Word and its application to their lives. Kids meet downstairs in KidZone. 2's & 3's are in the Nursery
We pause the Sunday before Memorial Day and resume the Sunday after Labor Day.
Details
Kids' Church…9:50ish-10:40ish
- Your child will join you in ‘Big Church’ until about 9:50 am and then be dismissed to Kids’ Church.
- Accompanied by an adult Leader and at least one Youth Assistant, they will head down to the KidZone for Kids’ Church. (The kids will be checked to ensure they have a check-in label before going down, so don’t skip the check-in part!)
- To pick them up after the service, take a left at the bottom of the stairs in the KidZone. All kids through 2nd Grade must be picked up by a parent or guardian with their pick-up tag.
Cookie Time…10:40am-11:00am
Hangin’ out time in the lobby. Get to know somebody after the service. Help yourself to a great cup of coffee and yummy cookies, and be sure your kids get some! A restroom break is also a great idea for the little ones before Growth Groups.
Come for More Groups… 11:00 am - 11:45 am
(Note: We pause the Sunday before Memorial Day and resume the Sunday after Labor Day.)
Our Kids’ and Youth classes are:
Preschool 2- and 3-year-olds: Northwoods Nursery

A Kids’ Ministry Leader will be in the KidZone helping you find a room if you need help.
All kids through 2nd Grade should be escorted to and from their Sunday School class.
You are absolutely welcome to attend any session on any Sunday with your kids.
