Kids Ministry (Nursery-5th Grade)
Sundays • 9AM and 10:45AM
Welcome to the Kids Ministry at Sunset Church! We're here to serve the needs of families in a loving and supportive environment that helps both the kids and parents glorify God. We invite you to come and explore our kids’ programs and seasonal events!
WHERE?
We invite you to participate in our Kids Ministry programs, which take place in the CE building located at 3635 Lawton. The CE building is conveniently situated across the street from our Worship Sanctuary. When you bring your children, please use the left-side door entrance with a glass window/door. Our dedicated staff of helpers will be readily available to provide assistance from that point onward.
OUR PROGRAMS
Your children's safety and security are our top priority. Our check-in staff and system are here to serve you and your kids efficiently and effectively. On Sundays, we provide the following programs for kids:
-
Birth to 24-month-old little ones is cared for by gentle and caring nursery team members who play, read and sing with them.
-
Kids 3-4 years old are taught by our faithful and loving team of dedicated teachers. Your toddlers can expect snacks, fun play, songs, and hear Bible stories!
-
Elementary-age students enjoy play and recreation and learn about the centrality of Jesus in the Bible and in life. They also will enjoy games, toys, Bible, spiritual growth, videos, and music!
Drop-Off:
Talk with a helper at the computer stations.
We will gather basic contact information.
Labels will be printed after checking in:
Child’s name tag

Future check-ins (on iPads): type your name, child's name, or number to check in (if changes need to be made please let a helper know).
After checking in your children they will have free-play time, large group devotional/worship, and break off into classrooms for bible lessons.

Sunset’s Nursery provides snacks and water for your child during services. If your child has allergies please bring snacks for your child.
If you are dropping off your infant, please bring a bottle with ready-made formula or milk and a diaper bag with diapers, a top, pants, socks, a pacifier, and bib. Please label all items with your child’s name.

The Well-Child Policy is a way to keep a safe and healthy environment at Sunset Church. We cannot accept children with a cold, fever, rash, persistent cough, diarrhea, or any other signs of illness.

Children can join the preschool program when they are potty-trained and able to communicate. If the preschool teacher assesses that the child is not ready for preschool class, he/she may have the child stay in the Nursery until the next promotion (Feb or Sept).
