We take our responsibility seriously to support you and co-disciple your children with you, as you share the opportunity with us. Our Grace Pointe Kids classes provide weekly teaching in a safe, secure environment with fully background-checked and vetted volunteers. We secure each room with a check-in/check-out system that allows you to check-in your kids each week and receive a ticket you can use to pick them up after service. Please visit the Grace Pointe Kids welcome kiosk each week to check your children in before service begins.

  • Children in grades K-5 worship with us for the first half of the worship service and then are dismissed to Children’s Church.
  • Children from newborns to preschool have a separate area in which they spend the whole service being cared for and taught by our trained and background-checked volunteers. You can check your child(ren) in 20 minutes before service each week.

Remember, all children attending our Grace Pointe Kids ministry must be checked in to get their name tag before service begins. High school and middle school students join us for worship the entire service.

Grace Pointe desires to partner with homes to grow more and better disciples of Jesus Christ, together.

Here’s how that relationship looks…

The Home’s Role

A parent or guardian’s role in their child’s spiritual development is irreplaceable. The Bible directs us to:

Bring [children] up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
Ephesians 6:4

In raising their children, parents and guardians hold the primary responsibility to:

    1. Teach their children about God
    2. Model the Gospel
    3. Participate in biblical community and involve children as their age and maturity allow

The Church’s Role

As parents and guardians fulfill their responsibilities, the church supports them by:
    1. Creating a safe, nurturing environment during Sunday morning services where children can learn about God
    2. Teaching children the same Bible passage adults are learning, so families can discuss the Scriptures together at home
    3. Facilitating K-5 Small Groups so children learn to discuss and apply the Scriptures
    4. Praying for you and your family regularly
    5. Supporting you with tools and resources to help your household grow in the Lord

Growing more and better disciples of Jesus Christ begins early in life and is best accomplished in community.

Here is how Children’s K-5 Small Groups engage with the Bible…

HEAD

Teaching that informs and renews the mind.

What does God the Father want me to know?

Children join adults for music, and then are dismissed to Children’s Church to:

  1. Sing
  2. Learn the same Bible passage parents learn
  3. Break into small groups to discuss the “Big Idea”
  4. Pray for one another

HEART

Small groups that model discipleship and engage the heart.

How does the Holy Spirit want me to grow?

During small group time, teen leaders model following Jesus by facilitating heart-engaging discussion around the Big Idea.

Teens model how to apply the Bible to real life and wrestle with Biblical truth.

All activities are overseen by background-checked and trained adult leaders.

HAND

You finish the teaching at home.

Where does Jesus call me to go?

Adults and children are given a “Big Question” they can go home and discuss each week.

The “Big Idea” from the Bible passage and the “Big Question” can be found on the Worship bulletin/handout each Sunday.

You lead your household in walking in obedience to Jesus and His Word.
