CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
Partnering with parents to raise up
disciples of Christ
Our mission is to partner with parents as they build a strong spiritual foundation for their children — teaching them to worship God everywhere, become more like Him everyday, and serve others.
Our children's opportunities are different depending on whether your kids are toddler/infant age, or in grade school. Keep reading to see all of the ways that you can engage at TGC!

Sunday Morning Clubs
Sunday Mornings
9:00am-10:00am
Location varies by age
Sunday Clubs is a small group experience where children can build friendships with others who love Jesus and explore together what God says to us in His word.
We use age appropriate Bible based curriculum which may vary by age group. Locations for the various age groups are posted in the hallways. You may also ask a welcome team member for assistance.
Children's Worship
Sunday Mornings
10:15am-11:30am (during service)
Sanctuary
Children are welcomed to participate in sanctuary worship until the children’s message time. They are invited to the front of the sanctuary for a message from the preaching pastor. Following the message they are escorted downstairs to our worship classroom(s) where they remain until after the service. Our children’s worship time includes prayer, praise, bible story exploration in age appropriate ways and friendship building.
If you wish to keep your child in the service with you, there are worship boxes available in the narthex containing colored pencils, crayons, small clipboards and paper, silent fidget toys and worship prompts for each week.
Wednesday Clubs
Wednesday Clubs provide a community where learning to serve and honor Jesus is practiced and encouraged through recreation, Bible study, music, sharing a meal, and fostering Christian friendships. Children in grades Kindergarten through 5th are encouraged to attend. Our semester will end with a musical production that they rehearse throughout the semester. Our Clubs programs are held twice a year beginning in September and in February lasting 10 weeks each. The cost is $50/child with a $100 family cap. It includes all dinners and a musical CD. The
Bible Focus will be the Character and Faithfulness of God. And the musical will be iAm by Little Big Stuff Publishing Company.
Club programming is available for the following age groups:
Explorers

This age group has the privilege and opportunity to prepare the choral poriton of each musical. This younger age group dismisses prior to the other two groups at 6:30pm.
