Nursery

The Nursery here at The Creek serves children from birth to thirty months of age.  We are dedicated to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment where children can play, have fun, and learn about God.  We enjoy spending time each week building relationships with our young children, teaching them about God, and nurturing them.  We want to be the familiar and friendly face that our babies and toddlers look forward to seeing each week.

Kids ROCK (K - 4th grade)

Kids ROCK is a time of fellowship and worship for children from kindergarten to fourth grade.  Every Sunday the kids are greeted by their small group leader who will lead them through a service filled with worship, teaching through drama and activities during small group time.  Kids then return to an age appropriate activity room where parents can pick them up or allow them to stay for Kids ROCK, too.

Kids ROCK, too (K - 4th grade)

Kids ROCK, too isn’t your Mom and Dad’s Sunday school.  Using the same lesson taught during Kids ROCK, kids will interact with kids of the same grade while participating in activities focusing on the lesson.  All classes then join for a time of large group teaching and then return to their activity room for snack and more activities.  Parents pick up the kids from their age appropriate activity room.
