Kids + Youth

Welcome, families!

We're so glad you're here.

We believe faith is first formed at home — and we want to come alongside you in that, not replace it. Whether your family has been part of a church for years or you're walking through these doors for the first time, our hope is the same: that every child and student who spends time with us would know, deeply, that they are loved by God and cared for by a real community.

Our environments are welcoming, age-appropriate, and led by trusted, vetted volunteers and staff who care about your child's growth — not just for an hour on Sunday, but for the long road of who they're becoming.

What we offer:

  • Sundays — age-specific environments for kids and students during our worship gathering
  • Midweek — Bible studies and gatherings for middle and high school students
  • Throughout the year — events for kids, students, and families to grow together in faith and community

Sunday Experience
When you arrive, our team will help get your child checked in and settled. 

A note for parents

Handing your child off to a new place can feel like a big step — we don't take that lightly. If you'd like to see a space beforehand, meet a leader, or just ask a few questions before your first Sunday, we'd love to help make that transition easier. You can find contact information for our staff on our Leadership page.

Preschool & Kindergarten
(birth–Kindergarten)

Meets in the preschool wing (second floor, southwest end of the building) — a safe, nurturing, playful space where little ones begin to learn about God's love.

Our Preschool & Kindergarten curriculum is based on the Tiny Truth's Bible and book series. If you would like further information about what a typical Sunday morning looks like, please reach out to the Preschool/Kindergarten Director, Kate Sorrel.

Kids Club
(first grade-fifth grade)

Meets in the lower-level classrooms (directly below the sanctuary). Fun, interactive, and built around helping kids understand the Bible and build real friendships.

Our Kids Club curriculum features memory verses, videos illustrating the Biblical story of the week, and hands-on crafts and experiments to help elementary-age students understand the concepts. If you would like further information about what a typical Sunday morning looks like, please reach out to the Kids Club Director, Deanna Gampp.

Middle School (6th–8th grade)

Students begin together in the sanctuary (front left) during music, then head downstairs to the Youth Room for teaching and discussion. If you'd like to meet Zack & Olivia, the Middle School Youth Pastors, or have a question about the group you can click here to contact them.

High School (9th–12th grade)

Students begin together in the sanctuary (back) during music, then head next door to the parsonage for group time centered on faith, life, and community. If you'd like to meet Allison, the High School Youth Pastor, or have a question about the group you can click here to contact her.
