What is The Grove?
The Grove (ages K-5th grade) and The Meadow (ages 0-5) make up our children's ministry uniquely designed with your child in mind! Our purpose is to root kids in Christ. We want to give them the roots they need to soar. To do that, kids birth through 5th grade experience safe, age-appropriate environments where the Bible is taught in a creative and relevant way. Join the fun and experience a world where kids meet Jesus on their level!
Who Attends The Grove & The Meadow?
ALL children (babies through 5th grade) attend The Grove and The Meadow each Sunday!
We are so passionate about kids learning about Jesus in a way they can understand that we've created environments just for them. Several times throughout the year, the KG through 5th grade join us for family worship.
What is Available for Nursing Moms?
This is a private room designed with the new mom and baby in mind. It is a "Moms Only" room for women who are feeding their babies and/or need to change a diaper in a quiet, comfortable space. Follow the signs to the Nursing Mother's Room. There is also a changing table in the men's restroom closest to the front lobby.

First Time at kids ministry?
We will meet your family and help you check your child in The Grove (where they'll be signed in) and/or The Meadow (where your child and you will be given matching safety tags). Once your family is checked in, one of our volunteers will be happy to show you the age-appropriate room created for your child. We will ask for the following personal information: family member's names. Children's names and birthdates, family addresses, phone numbers, and any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your child. Following the service during checkout, when you return to your child's room, you must show your tag in order for your child to be released back to you. In both The Grove and The Meadow, your child will be given a take-home handout to help you talk with them about what they learned.
A Special Note
If, for some reason, your child were to need you during the service, your child's identification code will appear on the screen in the Worship Center. We would ask that you exit the worship center immediately and go directly to the room where you dropped off your child. If you lose your portion of the tag, please go directly to the check in area, and we will help issue you another one.
