The Mission of the Children’s Ministry at Church at the Cross is to build a strong spiritual foundation by guiding children and parents to discover a personal relationship with Christ.
Our Vision is to develop a partnership with parents in laying a spiritual foundation that will lead a child into a strong relationship with Christ.
Our goal is to provide opportunities for your children to participate in a variety of activities and classes while on the campus of Church at the Cross that will meet their spiritual, mental, emotional and physical needs...all in a Christian atmosphere where God is first and foremost in every activity.
Sunday School Information for Preschoolers
Our Sunday morning education program involves circle time, centers, music with movement, and play. Our teachers love preschoolers and teaching biblical concepts to our children. We have regular meetings to train our teachers to communicate with preschoolers. Sunday School is a fun, educational learning environment for babies through kindergarten. We have a separate classroom for each age group with great teacher-child ratios.
For Babies through Walkers
Babies through Walkers are located on the 2nd floor, Midtown, of our Kidztown building. We use The Gracious Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes to share God’s Love with our youngest preschoolers. The Gracious Mother Goose consists of familiar rhymes that have been transformed into Christ honoring poems and prayers. Nursery rhymes are often the first verses that young children hear and remember.
For Toddlers through Kindergarten
Todddlers through Kindergarteners are located on the 3rd floor, Uptown, of our Kidztown building. The first hour, we conduct traditional Sunday School in which two teachers teach our Hands-On Curriculum. We also have an opportunity for the preschoolers each hour to either go to music, play outside, or play in the Treehouse.
For the second hour of Sunday School, we have changed the format for 3 year olds through kindergarten. The toddlers and the 2 year olds continue their Hands-On Bible Curriculum during this hour. The 3 year olds through kindergarteners are participating in our Lil’Kidz program which is a modified children’s church for preschoolers. During this hour the children participate in crafts, centers, Bible study, remembering Scripture, and some group activities.
Preschool Super Sundays
About twice a quarter, we have Super Sundays in which the children rotate to a variety of activities including rooms for the following activities: Bible Study, craft, music, games, play, centers, and snacks. In order to enjoy the entire rotation of activities the preschoolers need to attend both hours of Sunday School. Please
note the schedule changes posted on the classroom doors for the Super Sunday.
Playdates
Throughout the year, we provide a variety of locations to meet with other mothers and enjoy fellowship and play with our children. We try to keep much of the cost minimal.
