Big faith starts here
Equipping the
NOW generation.
Parents are the primary spiritual influence in a child's life. We're here to partner with you.
Our mission is to lay foundations and steppingstones in your child's walk with Jesus. We support families as children grow in an authentic relationship with Him-knowing His Word, hearing His voice, and living out their faith.
We believe children can lead and influence right now. Through worship, Scripture, prayer, discipleship, and meaningful relationships, we help them feel known, loved, valued, and equipped to follow Jesus.

Parenting Resource
Explore this month's resource as you help your family grow in their walk with Jesus.
Read this month's resourceOpens in a new tabHow does check-in work?
Check-in opens 30 minutes before each service. Visit the First Impression/Registration desk for your child's name sticker and your matching parent sticker. Both show a matching name and number code. Keep your sticker for pick-up and tell the team about allergies or special instructions.
What should we bring?
For newborns through age 2: bring 2-3 disposable diapers, a pacifier or comfort item, a complete change of clothes, and a bottle of milk, formula, juice, or water.
For ages 2-3: bring a spare change of clothes. Please label every item with your child's name.
How does pick-up work?
Present your matching parent sticker before your child is released. If your sticker is missing, a Ministry Director will assist with the release process. Anyone under 16 picking up a child must have both the matching parent sticker and written permission on file.
What about snacks and allergies?
Please tell the team about any allergies at check-in. Leaders check every child's sticker for allergy information before serving a snack.
What is the health policy?
Our well-child policy: Children must be fever-free without fever-reducing medicine for at least 24 hours, and free of vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours. For pinkeye, the handbook requires 24 hours on antibiotics or a doctor's determination that the child is no longer contagious, with no eye matting or drainage. For strep throat, it requires at least 24 hours on antibiotics. Rashes need a doctor's determination that they are not contagious, except diaper rash. Chickenpox spots must all be scabbed. Children with lice may return 24 hours after treatment when lice and nit free. Please keep children home with cold-like symptoms; this does not include allergies.
What if we leave something behind?
We provide a bag tag with your child's name at check-in. Check that all belongings are with you before leaving. Unclaimed items are donated after one month.
How do you help keep children safe?
At least two adult Team Leaders must be present before children are checked into a classroom. Children are grouped by age, with lessons prepared for their stage of development. Leaders use loving, calm correction and clear boundaries. Parents are contacted when a child is ill, injured, or remains inconsolable after 15 minutes.
