Children

We have a lively and faithful group of children here at Southminster. Children of all ages participate in Sunday School and worship, and they are actively included in the life of the church. Kids from all spiritual backgrounds and family types are welcome.

Sundays

Nursery Care

Our nursery is open and staffed by experienced, caring workers and volunteers on Sunday mornings, beginning at 8:15am. Located down the hall to the left behind the Sanctuary, our nursery provides a loving environment for our youngest friends.

Preschool Sunday School

Our youngest friends hear and experience multiple stories each year. Through these stories they are introduced to the Bible, and God's wondrous love for creation. Lessons take place in the Nursery.

Elementary Sunday School (K-5th Grade)

Each month children experience a new Bible story in four distinct rotations: 

  • Art and Spiritual Practices

  • Mission and Games

  • Cooking and Science

  • Storytelling and Drama


Through this rotational model, children hear each story in four different ways, increasing their knowledge and understanding. 

Note: Elementary Sunday School meets in the Elementary Room.

Wednesdays

Nursery Care

Our nursery is open and staffed by experienced and caring volunteers on Wednesday evenings beginning at 5:30pm. The nursery is located in the hallway behind the Sanctuary, last room on the right.

Wednesday Night Kids

As part of our Wednesday Night Connect program, elementary-aged children are invited to come to the church on Wednesday evenings for fellowship and learning. Through games, music, and service children learn and grow in their faith and understanding of the Bible.

 

A typical Wednesday night looks like this:

5:30pm: Dinner with our Church Family

6:15pm: Games, Bible Story, Crafts and Activities, or Playground Time

7:00pm: Dismissal
