Welcome to KidZone - Early Childhood!
You’re under six years old and the world is bursting with newness. Each day is filled with one new discovery after another. Where did that bird come from? Look, the moon is shaped funny tonight! Who thought to color the butterfly like that?
First impressions with these little people are important. That’s why we want to give babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners a first impression of their loving Heavenly Father that they will remember. Our early childhood environments use the Wonder Ink curriculum. This curriculum is build on four core truths:
God knows me.
Jesus loves me.
The Holy Spirit leads me.
I am a child of God!
We have three early childhood rooms that meet in the rooms adjacent to our main worship center:
Nursery (infants - 23 months)
Toddlers (2-3 year olds)
PreK/K (4 year olds - Kindergarten)
What Will Your Kids Be Doing In Their Room?
Nursery- Our youngest babies will play, be sung to, and do simple organic play-based activities that introduce them to foundational truths of who God is who and who He created them to be.
Toddlers & PreK/K- Our time is split into four sections:
1. Curiosity- Hands-on activities to spark curiosity and get kids thinking about the wonder of God.
2. Belief- A time of worship music, learning a memory verse, and an interactive dive into Scripture that guides kids into knowing God, exploring His big story, and marveling at His wonder.
3. Faith- An intentional craft and conversation that helps kids see the wonder of God’s story and how it connects to their own
4. Identity- An interactive worship response activity or game that creates space for God to remind kids that they are known, loved, led, and their lives can tell of God’s wonder.
We hope you’ll join us on a Sunday morning! When you check in at the kiosk, you will receive a name tag for your child and a matching parent tag. When you return after the worship service, your parent tag is your claim check to pick up your child. Safety is important to us in the KidZone, so this check out system is to ensure your child’s safety.

CURRENT SERIES FOR EARLY CHILDOOD
DATES: November 30 - January 3
PRESCHOOL SERIES DESCRIPTION: Our kids will have many opportunities throughout their faith journeys to explore the nativity story and celebrate the birth of our baby King. But perhaps just as compelling as the day itself is the long-expected nature of Messiah’s birth. God had promised a King. The prophets foretold His story.
The weeks leading up to Christmas Day can be a time of vibrant anticipation, of knowing that something worth waiting for is coming, and yet having to wait it out. In this series, kids will celebrate Advent in a new way as they discover the prophecies about the coming Savior from Isaiah in the Old Testament and the fulfillment of those prophecies in the birth of Jesus and the promise of His return.
