Children are precious, priceless treasures to God and us. Our congregation genuinely cares about children and is passionate about providing a safe and enjoyable environment where children can grow spiritually through great learning and loving relationships.
Sunday School
Sunday school is offered 10:10-10:45 a.m. for children Preschool through 5th grade from September through May (some holidays may not apply – please check North’s website calendar). Our Sunday school teaches Biblical truths, faith stories, and community in a fun and inviting style so children may experience the love of our relational God.
Wednesday Discipleship Program
Grades 6-12 participate in Jr. and Sr. High Youth Group on Wednesday nights. Please visit our Youth page for more information.
Worship
Pastor James and our congregation love having children be a part of our worship services. However, we understand that children’s attention spans are much shorter than adults, so we provide “Kid’s Stuff Bags” packed full of activities to occupy restless children. These bags can be picked up on your way into worship or requested from an usher. During the sanctuary service, some families prefer sitting behind the glass in the back of the sanctuary to allow their children to experience the worship service and give them the flexibility to move about as needed. Wherever your family chooses to sit, we welcome you to worship with us. We encourage all ages to attend our Christ Connection Service held in the Hall. During this service, families are seated at tables where they can eat or do other activities while worshiping God. Children are welcome to sing and dance during the Praise Songs, since God loves children to make a joyful noise unto the Lord and praise the Lord through dance.
VBS (Vacation Bible School)
Our Vacation Bible School uses a fast-paced, engaging curriculum that teaches about the Bible using music, crafts, fellowship, stories, drama, and more. It is held Sunday through Thursday evenings one week in the summer. All children in preschool through 6th grade are welcome.
Events & Festivals
Throughout the year there are several awesome events and festivals. Members, friends and guests are always welcome! Some annual events include an Easter party, Movie Extravaganza, Halloween Trunk-or-Treat and a Christmas pageant and party to name a few.
Infant and Toddler Care
Childcare is available Sunday mornings and on Wednesday evenings for infants and toddlers. We have a Childcare Provider on staff and a large group of regular volunteers who enjoy rocking, playing with, and telling stories to the youngest members of God’s family.
