Kingdom Kids - Children's Ministry

...and Jesus said to them, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them” … and he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them.  Matthew 10:14-16

Our goal at Windham Assembly is to reach the next generation and to allow for the “Son” to shine in every child’s heart.  It is our desire as children’s workers to develop relationships with our students that exemplify all we teach.

Children are invited to come learn about God in a kid friendly environment where lessons are taught at an age appropriate level.  On Sunday mornings, there are several opportunities available for the children.  

 

Nursery

Our nursery is a ministry to our littlest ones.  It is a clean, safe environment where our youngest attendees get their first impressions of church.  Childcare is available for healthy infants and toddlers during Sunday school and during our Sunday morning worship service.  An usher is available to direct any parent to the nursery.

Each child in our care is assigned a check-in card upon arrival.  Not only does this ensure your child’s safety at the time of pick-up but it also allows us to reach you should your child need you.   Your child’s number will be displayed to the right of the stage under the video screen indicating your need to return to the nursery.

 

2-5 Year Olds

The 2-5 year old children begin their service together in classroom 3.  After a time of free play, the children move to our cafeteria for a joint time of worship and snack.  After snack time, the 2-3 and the 4-5 year olds split into their age appropriate classrooms.  At the end of our worship service, parents may pick up their 2 & 3 year olds in classroom 3.  Four and five year olds may be picked up in classroom 5.  Our teachers and parent volunteers teach our little ones about respecting God, His Word, and others in an active, fun, and loving environment.  Snacks are provided.  

 

Kingdom Kids

Kingdom Kids is where faith is put into practice for our school aged children.  Not only do they learn the forms of adult church,  but they also begin using the gifts of the Spirit God has given them such as laying on of hands for healing.   It is a time for learning and practicing their faith in an age appropriate manner.  Kingdom Kids Children’s Church is for ages 6 years through 5th grade.  Students begin the service as a family in our sanctuary / gym.  The pastor dismisses the children following our time of worship in song.  Our classroom is located in the library upstairs.
