Welcome

We embrace all kids from birth to 5th grade, and we are delighted to partner with you to help the children in your life become deeply committed Christians. Our Discipleship Through Music model engages families to grow together in their journey towards living love by embracing all, sharing Christ, and serving others. Our digital curriculum keeps families connected from home or on the road. 

 

First-time guest?

We want your first experience at Clarendon Kids to be awesome!

CLARENDON KIDS SCOPE

This timeline is designed to help you see what and how your children will be connecting with God and with the community of faith. We want your family’s relationship with Jesus to be at the forefront of what we do.   

> Birth - Age 3:

Children enjoy a fun-filled nursery time on Sunday mornings. Parents and caregivers participate in weekly small groups that foster connection and community. Through play, children learn to recognize faith symbols and nursery rhymes. 

Emphasis: I am part of a loving community, and Jesus loves me.  

Available from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Main Teacher: Ms. Jerae

Listen to our: Spotify Nursery Playlist

> Age 3 - 1st Grade:

Cherubs learn Bible lessons through music and movement on Sunday mornings. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to volunteer and participate in weekly small groups for their own spiritual growth. Through music, children learn to connect with God in prayer, acts of service, and praise. The choir leads the church in song throughout the year. 

Emphasis: I can spread goodness and love others as God loves me.

Available from 10:15 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. after the children's message. All children return in time for communion.  
Main Teacher: Ms. Lisa

Children’s church on Sunday mornings during worship and Bells and Choir Rehearsal on Tuesdays from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. are two relevant and meaningful ways kids grow in faith and in community. Parents and caregivers participate in workshops and engage in volunteer/service opportunities. Monthly faith values are taught and reinforced in a collaborative environment throughout the week. Children are encouraged to demonstrate what they have learned through choir performances, presentations, and acts of service.    

Emphasis: Everything God created has sacred worth. The Holy Spirit is at work in the world.   

Children's Church is available from 10:15 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. after the children's message. All children return in time for communion.
