Upcoming Events for Children
UpStreet Sunday School
Children of preschool age (3+) through 5th grade are welcome at Sunday School each week where we learn about our God, our faith, and how to be Little Lights that shine bright in our community. (Our Grace nursery is available for those under 3 years old.)
Preschoolers (UpStreet Jr.) will learn through creative play, crafts, and music about Christ’s love. Grades K-5 (UpStreet) will explore Bible stories through faith-based activities and conversation.
Both classes meet during the 10AM Engagement Hour. Drop off and pickup for UpStreet is in the KidZone (lower level), and drop off and pick up for UpStreet Jr. will be in the preschool hallway (main level).
Contact Anna Burrell, Director of Children and Family Ministries, with any questions or for more info!
Nursery Care
Nursery care is available from 9am to 12pm every Sunday, including the 10am Engagement Hour, for children under 3 years old. Look for a member of the Welcome team (they’ll be wearing special yellow tags) or Children’s Ministries team (wearing green shirts) if you need assistance.
Pop-Out Church
During each worship service at Grace, we have a special “Children’s Moment” led by one of the pastors. Kids are invited to sit up front and hear a short story. Afterward, kids are invited to attend “Pop-Out” church with Ms. Anna. (Children may also return to sit with their parents.)
Note that Pop-Out Church will not meet on Communion Sundays (1st Sunday of each month).
TAG Mission Group for Kids
TAG (Take and Give) is a mission-minded activity and fellowship group for 1st – 5th graders that will meet in the KidZone! We start with a gathering time, eat lunch together, work on our service project and end with some fellowship!
Children’s Choirs
Preschoolers are invited to participate in the Joyful Singers choir.
Elementary aged kids can join the Asbury Choir where they will sing and play chimes. Over the summer kids can attend Grace’s week-long Choir Camp.
Minivangelism: A Podcast for Kids and Families!
Minivangelism is a theology podcast for kids and families that uses the Bible’s biggest stories to learn more about who God is. Join Anna Burrell and Pastor Drew as they explore stories of the Bible in a fun, new way!
Using music, special guests, and humor, children are encouraged to wonder about what these stories mean to us today.
The Driver’s Seat is a special Bonus episode and is a way for grownups to talk about the stories of the Bible without the kids in the car. We’ll share some ideas on how to talk to your kids about their own faith journeys.
Listen now on: Spotify, Amazon Music, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Pocket Casts!
