Children

Purpose

Our mission is to assist families in raising a generation that glorifies God by making disciples.  Here at Calvary, we strive to introduce children to Christ in a safe and inviting environment, help them grow in their understanding of Him, and develop a deep burden for the lost.

Sunday Morning

Nursery (Birth – PreK)

Nursery is available for children birth through PreK during 9:00 a.m. Sunday school and during the 10:00 a.m. worship service.

Babies (Room 104)  A child enters the Babies Class whenever the parent is comfortable using childcare. (4-6 weeks old is a suggested age to begin using childcare). A child promotes out of the Babies Class when he/she is walking with stability.

Walkers (Room 102)  A child enters the Walkers-2’s Class when he/she is walking with stability. He/she is  promoted out of the Walkers-2’s Class when he/she turns 3 Years Old and is potty trained.

3s-PreK (Room 108)  A child enters the 3’s-PreK Class when he/she turns 3 Years Old and is potty trained. He/she is promoted out of the 3’s-PreK Class when they begin Kindergarten. This class provides Bible teaching during the Sunday school hour and also first meets in the Multi-purpose room (Room 117) with the older children.

Sunday School (Kindergarten – Fifth Grade)

When children first arrive from 8:45 a.m. to 9 a.m., we gather together in the Multi-purpose room (Room 117) to hang out and connect with one another. At 9 a.m., the children go to three different classes with their peers (K-1st, 2nd-3rd, 4th-5th). Our Sunday school teachers use the Gospel Project curriculum to help kids learn about how every story of the Bible points us to Jesus. 

Kid’s Church (Kindergarten – Second Grade)

After we finish singing in the worship service (around 10:20 a.m.), our K-2nd graders meet our children’s minister and kid’s church volunteers in the connection center right outside of the sanctuary. We walk together down to the Multi-purpose room, (Room 117) play a game, review our Sunday school lesson, eat a snack, and build relationships! Each of our activities are meant to help point us back to our Bible story. Our teachers do this by sharing a “story connection” point after each activity.

Wednesday Night CalvaryKids

(Three-Year-Olds – Fifth-Graders)

Our 3 year olds to 5th graders gather from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. weekly to learn about a different Bible passage by reading it, seeing it, saying it, and singing it. We gather as a large group and split into two small groups (3s-K and 1st-5th). Childcare is also available for children under three years old.
