Children
We are honored to come alongside and encourage families to witness the power of the Holy Spirit as our kids grow in their love of God and trust in Jesus.
We believe:
God knows you. (Genesis 1:27; Psalm 139:1-4)
He is crazy about you. (John 10:11)
He goes with you everywhere. (John 14:16, 26)
In other words, we are:
Known.
Loved.
Not alone.
On Sundays, we make space for kids and leaders — nursery through 5th grade — to encounter the Lord and wonder about all that He has to say to us as we meet in small groups tailored to kids’ varying abilities and needs.
Our kids’ small groups are a taste of what it’s like to live a life with Christ — reading the Bible and wondering about who God is and who we are to Him, all while being together with others to pray and play, too
Have questions about how we can best care for the special needs of your family? Reach out to Louise.
Sundays @ 9 & 11am: Kids are always welcome to join their families for worship in the sanctuary — we even have a bookcase loaded with “listening tools” that are available to both kids and adults! Feel free to borrow what’s there.
We have kids’ small groups during each service, too! Kids who are nursery through 5th grade meet in small groups on Sunday mornings.
Nursery-aged kids (those not yet 3 by September 30, 2023) are welcome in the nursery throughout the entire service. Please check your child in down the hall on the first floor. Nursery-aged kids are welcome upstairs for the Eucharist or you can pick them up at the end of the service.
Preschoolers through 5th graders and the grownups who love them check in with their kids’ small group leaders on the first floor before heading up to the sanctuary for the opening worship. When kids are released to go to their small groups, they meet their leaders outside the sanctuary and head downstairs to their small group rooms. Preschool through 5th graders return to the sanctuary in time for the Eucharist.
Storytime on Tuesdays @ 10: Join us on Tuesdays @ 10 for Storytime with Miss Louise and Miss Victoria. Kids of all ages and the grown ups who love them are invited to gather together at Oak Grove Park from 10:10:30 AM for picture book read alouds, followed by a chance to hang out and play. It’s a great place to meet friends — both old and new! On rainy Tuesdays, Storytime meets in the Fellowship Hall @ Restoration.
Anytime: Tune in to Pray & Ponder, our podcast for kids and the grownups who love them.
