Children's Ministry

Helping Kids Know Jesus and Grow in Faith

At Guthrie Grove, we believe children aren't just the future of the church—they're an important part of the church today. Our Children's Ministry exists to help kids discover God's love, understand His Word, and begin a lifelong journey of following Jesus.

Every Sunday, our goal is to provide a safe, welcoming, and engaging environment where children can learn about God in age-appropriate ways while building friendships and having fun.

Whether it's your child's first visit or they've been coming for years, we're excited to partner with your family as they grow in faith.

We Disciple Families

Parents are a child's first and most important spiritual influence. Rather than replacing that role, we want to come alongside you.

Our Children's Ministry is designed to reinforce what children are learning at home and encourage conversations about God throughout the week. Together, we can help the next generation develop a faith that is rooted in Scripture and lived out every day.

What to Expect

When you arrive, one of our volunteers will be happy to help you find the right place for your child and answer any questions you may have.

During class, your child can expect:

  • Age-appropriate Bible lessons
  • Worship and prayer
  • Games and activities that reinforce biblical truth
  • Caring, committed teachers
  • A fun and welcoming environment

Our desire is for every child to leave knowing they are loved by God, valued by their church family, and excited to keep learning about Jesus.

When We Meet

Sunday School | 10:00 AM

Children of all ages are invited to age-appropriate Sunday School classes where they learn God's Word, build friendships, and grow in their faith.

Worship Service | 11:00 AM

We offer several ministry environments during the worship service:

  • Nursery – Loving care for our youngest children.
  • Toddler Church – An engaging introduction to God's love through songs, stories, and activities.
  • Junior Church (approximately ages 4–8) – Age-appropriate Bible teaching, worship, and activities designed especially for young children.

Toddler and Junior Church children begin the service with their families and are dismissed before the sermon. Families are also always welcome to worship together in the sanctuary. There is a nursing room available in the back of the sanctuary for parents of young children.

Wednesday Night Bible Study | 7:00 PM

Wednesday evenings are all about growing together. We offer Bible classes and discipleship opportunities for every age—from children and students to adults—making it a great night for the whole family to be involved. Dinner is served at 6:30pm on Wednesdays throughout the school year.

Not sure where your child belongs? Our welcome team will be happy to help your family find the right classroom when you arrive.

Safety Matters

Your child's safety is one of our highest priorities.

We strive to provide a secure environment through:

  • Carefully selected and trained volunteers
  • Appropriate classroom supervision
  • Clean and welcoming classrooms

We want parents to have confidence knowing their children are cared for while they participate in worship and Bible study.

Throughout the Year

In addition to our weekly gatherings, students have opportunities to grow through retreats, camps, conferences, and service projects.
