Children's Ministries

Through the Children’s Ministry at The Gathering , we are laying strong spiritual foundations that help children grow in their understanding of God and that provide them opportunities to serve others. A well-trained leadership team comprised of volunteers and professional staff directs our children’s programming through weekly activities and special events. There are plenty of opportunities for the children to interact while “Growing to be like Jesus.”

During the 10:45 Worship Service, we invite all children (ages 4-11) to come forward for the Children’s Sermon. Afterwards, they leave the sanctuary and go to classrooms near the Fellowship Hall. There are three classes with assigned instructors in each room. It’s an opportunity for the kids to learn and share with their peers and have freedom to talk and participate in activities. A small “treat” is given at the end of class. Please let us know if you have an allergy concern or any other medical conditions we need to be aware of.

Wednesday Nights

The Gathering also offers 3G KIDS classes on Wednesday nights at 6:30pm while parents gather in the Sanctuary. Our  3G Kids (ages 4-11) participate in some playtime, a lesson time and work on a Bible memory verse for each month. Please join us for these fellowship times and look for special events planned for the kids. We want your family to feel welcome at The Gathering!
