Children’s Ministries

At SMCC we love children! Children are a beloved part of our spiritual community and have a special place in God’s heart. We seek to encourage children to connect to God and one another, making friends, growing in their faith, and discovering their unique role in God’s kingdom!

I have children—what do I do?

  • I have children who are Kinder or younger
  • I have children who are 1st grade through 5th grade
  • I have children who are both Kinder and younger and 1st grade through 5th grade

Kinder or Younger

Come say hello and check in at our Children’s Welcome Table in the courtyard! There you will see a friendly face who can answer your questions and give you a participation form to fill out (or you can fill it out in advance here.)

Someone will direct you to our classrooms in the Lower Courtyard, on our Nursery School campus, where you can sign in your Kinder or younger child/ren before you go to the worship service. After worship services, our Kinder and younger kids can be picked up directly from their classrooms.

Please note: If your child is in diapers, please leave a diaper bag and a back-up change of clothes.

Then you can take your 1st grade through 5th grade children into worship with you. About 12-15 minutes into the service, our Children’s Ministry Director, Mrs. Natalie, or another adult leader will shepherd the kids from the service to our upstairs classrooms. After services, our 1st-5th grade children will be brought down to the courtyard to rejoin their families.

Please note: Our 1st-5th grade children’s programming sometimes runs slightly longer than the service. If you are in a time crunch, please feel free to pick up your child directly from the upstairs classrooms.
