ELEMENTARY KIDS

CONNECTING FAMILY AND CHURCH

Chapel Hill Kids’ Ministry is all about helping families with kids between Kindergarten and 5th grade worship and grow together! We’re here to inspire, equip and support you as you raise your children. Our goal is to help you in your role as the primary faith builders of your children.

We encourage your family to worship together so you are welcome to have your children join you in the services as a family. You can also choose for your kids to engage in a special church service just for them with age-appropriate music, lessons, and creative activities that encourage their faith. From check in to check out, their safety is our top priority. Our leaders and volunteers are specially trained, and we have state-of-the-art security procedures designed to keep your kids safe.

NEXT STEPS

K-5th grade Kids’ Worship is offered in person every Sunday during the 10:00 am worship service (please note Kids’ Worship takes a break during the month of July to give our servant leaders a chance to rest; families may worship together; activity bags for kids are available). Families may park in the big lot, go in Doors D or E, and walk to your left through the lobby and follow it around to our HeBrews Coffee Shop. You can ask a greeter to help you. Then look for the Kids’ Check-in sign at the entrance to our childcare hallway. You can check your kids in up to 15 minutes before the service begins. We have self-check-in and manned check-in options. After checking in, you will accompany your child(ren) to their age-appropriate room(s).

To supplement in person learning by building faith at home or if you choose to worship remotely we have an online option to teach each weeks God’s Big Story (Bible Story). Get the weekly K-5th grade lessons here.

You can also download the Parent Cue App and find our weekly lessons there. Whether you are in person or online, you can use these tools to teach your children our lessons all week long.

Wednesday Kid’s Place is on Wednesday Nights during the school year where we offer a place for K-5th graders to go deeper in their own faith journey. During the summer we take a break. Here is what Wednesday Kid’s Place looks like: Wednesdays, 6:30-8:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall for all kids K-5th grade. This is offered during Celebrate Recovery, Alpha, Small groups and other groups that choose to meet at the Church on Wednesday nights. Come and bring a friend. The optional dinner is provided at 5:30 pm. All nursery through 5th grade programs run from 6:30-8:30 pm. Check-in begins at 6:15 pm for nursery care through 5th Grade Kids Place. Families may park in the big lot, go in Doors D or E, and walk to your left through the lobby and follow it around to our HeBrews Coffee Shop. Then look for the Kids’ Check-in sign at the entrance to our childcare hallway. We have self-check-in and manned check-in options. After checking in, you will accompany your child(ren) to their age-appropriate room(s). For nursery and preschool, contact Kim Hagey.
