Sunday Morning

Nursery / Preschool Ministry (birth - 4 years)
Our nursery and preschool ministry cares for the youngest members of our congregation during Sunday School, worship services and, as needed, special events.  Children are always welcome in the worship services, but nursery care is offered as a courtesy to families for whom this option is preferred.

Sunday School
Proverbs 22:6 instructs us to "Train up a child in the way he/she should go..."  At Grace Covenant Church, Sunday School provides an excellent opportunity for children to learn and apply the truths of God's Word in ways appropriate for their age group.  Children enjoy stories, crafts, games, music, memory verses, Bible reading and prayer.

Classes are held for Pre-K to Kindergarten, 1st to 3rd grade, and 4th to 6th grade. Additionally, nursery care is available for babies through 48 months (4 years) old, and classes are held for 7th-12th graders and adults.
Discovery Zone (Jr. DZ)
Meeting during the sermon portion of the worship service, children in grades K-6 have the opportunity to discover what being a child of God is all about through worship in music, story-telling, Scripture readings, prayer and hands-on learning experiences.

On Communion Sunday's, children who have accepted Christ as their Savior are encouraged to remain in the worship service to participate in Communion with their families.  Click here for downloadable brochure that helps parents prepare their children for Communion.

Wednesday Night

Our mid-week programs seek to help children build Christ-like character, develop relationships with caring adults, build friendships with other children, learn new skills, apply Biblical truths to their lives and more.  Each week includes games, activities, Bible lessons, and more!  We currently offer 3 groups for children, beginning with Kindergarten:
GEM'S Girls Club (girls, grades 1-6) is a place to belong. GEM'S is an exciting, safe environment for girls to learn about God, His Word and His world.  Games, activities, crafts and stories make GEM'S Club a highlight of the week for GEM'S girls!  Highlights of the year include the annual slumber party and Pinewood Derby Night! 
Stockade - (boys, grades 1-6) With the help of committed Christian leaders known as Rangers, the Stockaders learn the "three keys" of honesty, obedience, and courage that help them to become the kind of boys God desires them to be.  A typical Stockade evening includes check-in time, group games, post-time for projects, Scripture memory, Bible lessons and relationship development.  Highlights of the year include Pinewood Derby Night and Rocket Launch.

Special Events

Throughout the year, special events are held to help children grow in their faith, develop friendships, serve others and more.

GROW CHALLENGE

 

“But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.”

(Matthew 13:23)

 

Every Spring, we challenge our kids (and families)
