SUNDAY KIDS PROGRAMMING
At Gather children are an important part of our community. Our goal is to provide a safe & nurturing environment staffed by trained volunteers where children know that they are loved deeply and are free to be their truest selves.
We are excited to offer programming for children 6 months through 5th grade. Older kids are welcome to participate fully in our liturgy or spend time in our family worship area.
Kinder - 5th graders are invited to stay with their families through the first half of our liturgy (primarily music) and will be dismissed for age specific programming prior to the teaching.
CHeck in and Check out
If your child is 6 months through Pre-K, their rooms are through the courtyard gate on Van Buren St. There is a check-in station specifically for them where you drop them off! Keep the sticker the volunteer will give you and turn that in when you pick them up after service.
If your child is Kindergarten through 5th grade, we have a check-in station in the fellowship hall to the left after you walk in through the front doors. Look for the big chalkboard, and Heather or a volunteer will be there waiting to check in your kiddos! You can find them in the office down the hall off the fellowship hall for their programming to come pick them up after church.
PRE-K CURRICULUM
Pre-K kids will be learning and discussing curriculum based on the book What is God Like? by Rachel Held Evans and Matthew Paul Turner. Click below to see a sample!
ELEMENTARY CURRICULUM
Children in kindergarten - 5th grade will be discussing SparkHouse’s Lectionary Curriculum. We’re excited for the chance to follow the lectionary calendar together as a church. Our big kids circle up all together to start their time with their own version of our church’s confession of faith and then split up for stations (K-2nd group and 3rd-5th group).
