The Movement Kids team exists to partner with parents as they disciple their children by building relationships, equipping, and training the next generation of Christ followers.
Sunday Morning Ministry for Kids
Movement Kids strives to create environments where kids can learn about who they are in Christ, grow in their relationship with Him, and learn to live out their faith every day. Our environments are meant to meet children at the critical stages in their development.
During the Sunday service, our nursery volunteers offer a safe and fun environment for children to feel loved and cared for. Our preschool and elementary groups meet for fun, kid-friendly large group and small group time during the Sunday morning services. Each week kids gather together for an interactive worship time where they learn how to worship Jesus, then they participate in small groups where they uncover new Bible stories and engage in fun and age-appropriate content. The desire for kids is that they know more about who Jesus is while gaining their understanding of His Word and how that transforms our lives.

5th Sundays at MKids
Occasionally we “change things up” on Sunday mornings for our elementary kids. For instance, on the 5th Sunday, we have “family worship services,” which means our elementary kids join their parents in “big church” before heading to their small groups! This is an excellent opportunity for growing kids to learn more about how to worship from their parents and their church family. We try to communicate these changes in advance to families, so please make sure we have your email address in our system to keep you up to date.
YOUR FIRST VISIT
From the moment you pull in the parking lot, you’ll notice lots of friendly faces eager to show you the way.
Your first stop when you arrive is the MKids check-in area. We want to serve you and your child well, so we’ll take some time to get to know you. We’ll ask about allergies, make sure we know what your child likes to be called, and collect your contact information.
Then, you and your child will both get a sticker with a matching code. If, for any reason, we need to reach you during service, you’ll be sent a text, and you can come to the first-time families check-in area. You’ll also use this sticker to pick up your child after gathering.

FOSTER AND ADOPTIVE CARE MINISTRY
On average there are 444,000 foster children in the United States alone. Every day a growing number of children wake up wondering where they will sleep, what they will eat, and who, if anyone, will love and care for them. Families in our church and community have responded to the call to love and care for these children. Our desire is to partner with these families by encouraging them and caring for these families as they care for the children God has placed in their homes.
