At Calvary, we believe we are called to partner with parents to cultivate in each child a spiritual hunger for God, an awareness of His presence, and a love for His Word. We desire for kids to develop a personal relationship with God while they are still young, to have strong, godly relationships with others, and to be equipped for ministry and service. To accomplish this vision, we offer diverse programs and special activities in a fun and nurturing environment filled with God’s love.

Kids Church: Sunday, 10:45 a.m.

After our family worship time, kids are dismissed to our kid-oriented service to meet their Lifeguard and sit together by grade. We use fun songs, short stories, object lessons, games, prayer, and ministry time to invite kids to experience God’s love in a meaningful way. The Take-home Sheet and the Scripture Memory Program invite kids and their parents to explore God’s truth together during the week. Kids earn recognition and rewards when they complete Activity Pages and memorize the Bible verses.
For the safety of our youngest kids, we ask that parents escort their Kindergarten kid to Kids Church and pick them up at the end of the morning service. Kids in 1st – 5th grade may go to and from Kids Church unescorted as long as they do so in a responsible way.
