Parents are always welcome to visit our children’s programs. |

We especially encourage parents of babies to stay with your children for 2-3 weeks to get them adjusted to our nursery then leave them with our Wonderful Nursery Staff. After than, join us once a month to keep up with what your children are learning about God. |

Sick Children: Our wellness policy:
No sick children will be admitted into the children’s ministry!
We want all our children to remain healthy and happy.
Please keep your child at home if he/she has any of the following symptoms:
|
|
If your child is being treated with antibiotics, they should be on the medication for 24 hours before coming to church.
Children with clear-runny nose or rash due to allergies are welcome. Please just let us know that they are not contagious.
|
|
Nursery babies and toddlers will check in at room P-10. |
|
|
Parent's please sign your children in: K-1st Grade @ P-9, 2nd-3rd Grade @ P-11, 4th-5th Grade @ H-103. |

|
If this is your first time, you will be given a nametag and a number. After your first time, just pick up your nametag from the holder. |
|
|
Your number is very important. In case of a situation or emergency, your number will be used to notify your parents. |
|
|
Please raise your hand when you want to talk. |
|
|
Please follow directions promptly. (Hebrews 13:17a) |
|
|
Please treat other with respect. (Mark 12:31) This means listening to others, saying only nice things, and keeping your hands, feet, and other objects to yourself. |
|
|
If you need to leave your class, let the teacher or assistant know where you’ll be and take a buddy. (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10) |
|
|
Please do not eat in Children’s Church unless it is snack time, or your teacher allows it. (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8) |
1st time: You will be given a warning.
2nd time: You will be placed on time-out away from the group (max. 10 mins).
3rd time: You will miss an activity, and your teacher will talk to you about your behavior.
4th time: Your parents will be asked to come and take you out of the children’s ministry. You will be allowed to join us again next week.
*** If at any time a child refuses to listen to the teacher, his/her parents will be notified of the child’s behavior, and the parents will be asked to remove their son/daughter from the children’s ministry. They will be allowed to join us again next week.
|
|
Your babies and toddlers will be in room P-10. You will need to pick them up there for safety purposes. |
|
|
Other children will be in their classrooms. Please come and sign them out. |
|
|
Snacks will be provided at the Hospitality table outside the worship center. Most parents have fellowship there after church and meet their children at the Hospitality Table. |
|
|
If you would like to donate snacks we ask for simple treats that can be kept from one week to another in case of extra. (fruit punch syrup, granola bars, animal cookies, graham crackers, etc.) |
|
|
We encourage you to review each week’s lesson with your children, perhaps in a family devotion time. Children attending Sunday School will be given a “take-home page” with activities for the whole family during the week. |
|
|
There are also great free resources on the internet for family time. |
