Nursery: (birth through toddlers)

For the first two years of life, we focus on making a child's initial experience at church a happy and safe one! Children need to learn about God's love at the earliest opportunity. Nursery is provided during Sunday morning and Sunday evening service times.

Sunday School: (two year olds through fifth grade)

We provide age-graded classes on Sunday mornings in which children learn Christian concepts through Bibles stories, memory verses, songs and creative learning activities that lay a foundation for a life of faith in Jesus Christ.

• Age two through kindergarten classes - 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
• First through fifth grade classes - 10:15 to 11:00 a.m.

Kids' Church/J12: (first through fifth grade)

First through fifth graders (Kids' Church: 1st - 3rd grade; J12: 4th-5th grade) are dismissed from the worship service before the sermon to attend Kids' Church/J12. Leaders teach, demonstrate and involve the children in prayer, Scripture reading, singing of hymns and praise songs, taking offerings, and Bible preaching using puppets, drama and object lessons.

Awana

Bethel's Awana is a program that helps churches and parents raise children and youth to know, love and serve Christ! Awana does this through:

• Fully integrated programs for ages 3 to 12
• The best evangelism tools to reach unsaved children, youth and families
• Teaching that builds an enduring Biblical faith
• Resources bringing churches and parents together to disciple the next generation
• Initial and ongoing volunteer training
• Healthy mentor and peer relationships
• Dynamic fun for children, teens and adults alike!
