For your kids

Grace Kids

Grace Kids is for children from newborn through 5th grade. Nursery care covers birth through age two, and children's church runs Pre-K through 5th grade.

Every class hears the same Bible lesson in the same week, taught at a level each age can understand, so the conversation keeps going in the car and at the dinner table. Children as young as three begin memorizing Scripture. Check-in and check-out run through Planning Center, and every volunteer clears a background check.

For your teenager

PlusOne Youth

PlusOne Youth is for students in 6th through 12th grade, meeting in two groups: middle school for 6th through 8th grade, and high school for 9th through 12th grade.

A night together means games, worship, teaching from the Bible, small group discussion, and dessert. The small group is where it lands: the same students and the same leader, working through identity in Christ, belonging in a church family, and purpose as a disciple. The groups also gather off site for community nights and service projects.

Before you come

Questions parents ask

Is Grace Kids open at both services?
Grace Kids runs during the 10:30 service. The 8:30 service is a worship service without children's programming, so most families with young children come at 10:30.
Where do I check my child in?
Check-in is available near the bottom of the ramp leading to the Children’s Wing and at the entrance to the Children’s Wing.
Are your volunteers background checked?
Yes. Every volunteer who works with children clears a full background check through Protect My Ministry. Check-in and check-out run through Planning Center, and a guardian has to check a child out, so no child leaves with anyone else.
My teenager does not want to come. What then?
That is normal, and it is not something to fix in one week. PlusOne Youth is built on small groups, the same students with the same leader, so a teenager gets known by name before anyone asks them to say much.
Is there childcare at Grace Moms?
Yes. Childcare is provided when you sign up ahead, which is what lets them staff it with enough volunteers.
