WHAT TO EXPECT



CHECK - IN

When you arrive, greeters will help you find our welcome station in our children's area. Once there, GP Kids' volunteers will help you and your kiddos get checked in. They are always glad to answer any questions you have.

Click on the button below for information that will be useful for your first few visits. You can also pre-register your child. Once you are familiar with the process, you can check in your children each week at our self-check-in station.

Check-In Info/ Pre-Register

YOUR CHILD'S CLASS

When your child is checked in, you will receive a security ticket and drop them off at their designated classroom.

We know it's not easy to trust just anybody with your child. Each volunteer has completed an application and background check.

If, for some reason, your child needs you during the service, you will be texted on the number provided at check-in.

You can learn more about each area of children's ministry below.

CHECK-OUT

Your child is given an identification number at check-in, and a sticker with their name and ID number is placed on them. When the service is over, you will need to show your security ticket (with its matching number) so your child can be checked out and released back to you.

At check-out (and check-in), we ask that only one parent go to your child's classroom to minimize "traffic jams" in the hallway and help us keep the children's ministry area as secure as possible.

We believe children grow spiritually when they experience love, belong to a community, grow in wonder, know the story Scripture is telling, and have opportunities to practice following Christ.

OUR CLASSROOMS

Nursery

The nursery (birth-2 years) is often a child’s first exposure to love and care outside their family. Loving, trained volunteers offer your child unconditional love, developmentally appropriate play and thoughtful care.

Pre-School

In our preschool classes (2-5 years) , caring volunteers play with your kids, provide a snack, and, through the use of video, songs, and activities, help your child catch a glimpse of what it means to be loved by God and to be part of God's family.

Elementary

Our elementary classes are filled with music, fun games, age-appropriate activities, and interactive lessons. Each week, leaders help them connect Scripture with their everyday lives in engaging and relevant ways.
