CARE Certification

CARE stands for Children and Adults in a Responsible Environment. We love our kids and want you to know that we take good care of them! All of our children's workers are CARE certified, which means they've had background checks, interviews and undergo yearly training on child safety and security policies.

Nursery

Nursery is available for children ages birth through 4 years old. Wondering what goes on in our nurseries? Here's some of what we do:

• We pray for our children
• We sing with our children
• For older children we offer snacks
• When the weather is nice the older children play on the playground

Elementary Sunday School

On Sunday mornings we offer Sunday school classes for elementary age children during both the 9:45 and 11:15 services. We encourage children ages 5 and up to sit with their families in the worship service, although we do offer Children's Church for 5-7 year olds.

Pioneer Clubs

On Wednesdays during the school year we have Pioneer Clubs which allow children to learn about God and build relationships with loving and caring adults as well as other children. They make crafts, memorize Scripture, learn songs and much more. You can get more info here. Or click here to register.

Children's Choirs

After Pioneers on Wednesday nights we have children's choirs for 5-12 year olds. This year we are offering two choirs:

• Children's Choir for 5-8 year olds
• Junior Choir for 9-12 year olds

Typically one of our children's choirs sings once a month, September through March, in addition to special performances the first Sunday of Advent and Palm Sunday.

Summer Camps

In addition to our regular weekly events we have some great summer camps for our kids as well, including:

• Victory Soccer Camp
• Arts and Science Camp
• Vacation Bible School

Special Needs

We have a class available specifically for children with special needs, and we have very capable and dedicated volunteers to help children with special needs in any of our regular children's classes. If you need more information about how we can help with children with special needs, please contact Linda Cain at the church office.
