We want children and their families to know God and how much He loves them. We do this by partnering with families to raise their children for Christ! Take a few minutes to check out what we do. Then join us each week for fun, creative children’s services that teach the life-changing message of Jesus Christ!
We begin and end with corporate worship including music from our live worship band. In between, we share engaging, Jesus-centered Bible teaching. After the large group time, we move into our small groups.
Small groups connect children in community with other kids their age. Our GROW group leaders use fun, age-appropriate activities and games to reinforce the monthly theme and bottom line for each week.
The GROW Show is a Bible-themed variety show for kids! It's a high energy, fun-filled “live” show that incorporates skits, stage games, interactive videos, contests, and more, all while intentionally teaching kids about the Gospel of Jesus Christ through bible teaching and worship. The GROW Show is followed by a brief small group debriefing session. You have to experience it to understand it!
**The GROW Show only meets during the Rutherford County school year.**
This a transitional ministry designed to help our kindergartners bridge the gap between Preschool and Children’s Ministry. The curriculum provides developmentally appropriate learning experiences to help them KNOW who God is and provides an age appropriate learning environment. The summer after their Kindergarten year, the children will participate in large group worship with the Children's Ministry.
Here are answers to a few questions to help get your kids settled in to make their first visit...
and yours...as easy and enjoyable as possible! We’re looking forward to meeting you!
First time guests, should check in at the main Welcome Desk in the Worship Center atrium. Each week after, you may check-in at any welcome desk or kiosk. When you check your child in, you will receive a name tag for them and a matching security tag for you. Hang on to your security tag, you will need it to pick your child up. Once you have checked in, bring your 1st-4th grader to the Children's Chapel. There are rows of seats sectioned by gender and grade. As you drop off, please walk your child to their seat and meet their leader as they get ready to worship! If you have any questions or concerns, any of our Children's Ministry volunteers will be very happy to help.
In addition to flyers we occasionally hand out, these are updated regularly to keep you up to date on Children’s Ministry activities.
After Large Group time, your child's leader will escort them to their Small Group room. Please pick them up there. We take the safety and welfare of our children seriously; they will not be released without a security tag....even if we know you...and we will not release them to other minors, even with a tag. If your tag is lost, come to the Children's Chapel Welcome Desk and we'll help. We love them, but we want them to go home with you!
