CHILDREN


If you will be bringing children with you, here is what you can expect:
Children age 6 and older join us in the Theater for the worship service at 9:30 am.
Otherwise, if your children are:

Age 0-24 months: We provide two fully staffed Nursery classrooms. Once you’ve entered the main lobby of the Theater, turn to your left and pass through the glass doors. There you will find a sign-in table for Nursery 1 and Nursery 2. Sign-in begins at 9:15 am. Please sign your child in and follow directions to the appropriate classroom.

Age 2-5 years: We provide three fully staffed Worship Training classrooms. Immediately after you enter the main lobby of the Theater look to your left and you will see the sign-in table for Worship Training. Sign-in begins at 9:15 am and the classes will follow this pattern:

Worship Training 1: For all 2 year olds who will go directly to their classroom after sign-in.

Worship Training 2: For all 3 year olds who will go directly to their classroom after sign-in.

Worship Training 3: For all 4-5 year olds. After sign-in, parents will take these children in for the early elements of the Worship Service at 9:30 am. Then they will be dismissed at 9:50 am to follow leaders to their class.

As parents we love our children, but we must admit that children make things difficult. They make it difficult to come to church, sit down, take a deep breath, and focus our attention. We were all made to worship, but we don’t know how until someone shows us. With this in mind, we seek to train our children to worship God. Our goal is to prepare them to enter into the “big” Worship Service with their parents, better able to listen and engage with the liturgy as they grow in maturity. In Worship Training, leaders guide the children in singing, prayer, and a curriculum lesson with age appropriate activities. This is a time of engagement with leaders to help our young ones focus on their purpose which is to worship their Creator, Redeemer and King.

Parents are asked to pick up their children immediately following the service. Then you are welcome to return to the lobby or the Theater for conversation and fellowship.

For those who prefer, children of all ages are welcome in the Worship Service. We do ask that you transition your children into the Worship Service by the age of 6.
