Children and Youth
Children
Multiple Options for Children and Worship
Both of our services are family friendly and children are welcome to attend worship with you.
During the 9:30 service we also have the option of KidMin, which is our Kid’s Worship Program. Keeping Children Safe
is a commitment we make through our staff training and utilization of Safe Sanctuaries® Guidelines and
Policies. Our ushers can provide you with activity / coloring clip boards for your children when they join you
in worship. Our 9:30 and 11am services are also telecast to our lobby, which can also be a comfortable
option when caring for your small children.
KidMin! Kids Worship
Sunday mornings for Kids age 3 and over
Children ages 3 and over are invited to attend, KidMin, a worship experience designed for kids. The children will sing songs, learn about their loving God, play games, meet new friends, and maybe even create something beautiful related to the Bible lesson. Please check your children in through our online sign up.
All our staff and volunteers in Children and Youth Ministries are trained in the United Methodist Safe Sanctuary policy, and all receive background checks. Please note: our children and youth programs are always special-needs friendly.

I AM youth
Sunday mornings for youth grades 6-12
We will be following the church COVID protocols; wear your mask!
Sunday morning is a perfect time to connect with others your age.
We spend our time together discovering who we are in God, what is our purpose and how we can make a difference. This happens when we explore God’s story through reading, discussing listening to others, and asking questions. We connect with each other through fun activities, listening to music, prayer, sharing our gifts and offerings, and participating in ways that will serve others.
We meet in the youth room that is off of the east hallway next to the Centrum (Redemption Worship Center.)
Keep your eyes open for our “i AM youth” logo.
