The Trails Kids:
Birth to 6th Grade
Preschool
Kids from birth-kinder enjoy a safe place where they can GATHER to learn, play and sing, GROW in their knowledge of key foundational truths, and GO into their world knowing the love of Jesus.
We believe that it is possible to share the love of Christ with children from the day of their birth. In every lesson we teach, these foundational biblical truths are taught with the hope that they take a firm hold in their hearts and are carried with them the rest of their lives: God is good; God made everything; God is in charge of everything; Jesus came to save sinners; God wants to talk with us.

Elementary
Kids in 1st-5th grade GATHER in interactive Bible Study Groups where the whole story of Scripture is taught. These groups are designed to help them GROW in their knowledge of who God is and build upon basic foundational truths. Learning attributes of God, we help them to understand who God is and what scripture says He is like. Understanding who God is in Scripture lays a foundation for children to follow God.
Elementary students have the opportunity to learn from their parents how to worship together in our corporate worship service so that they can GO out into the world each week living a life of worshiping the King.

Meets during the Fall and Spring at 6pm.
Location
The Kids area is located to your left as you enter through the north lobby entrance.
Checkin
Checkin begins 10 minutes before each meeting time. First-time guests will need to fill out a registration card. You’ll then receive a numbered security sticker which serves as your child’s name tag. You’ll also receive a matching numbered security tag which is required to retrieve your child later. This numbered tag also helps us notify you in case of a medical or behavioral issue.
Tips For Your Visit
Please label all of your child’s belongings. Prepare your baby’s bottle in advance, as volunteers do not spoon-feed infants. Also note that we discourage children from bringing their own toys into the class, as it is easy for them to be misplaced or forgotten.
Safety
Because safety is a high priority for us in caring for your children, you’ll find carefully screened and trained volunteers, strict teacher-to-child ratios, and matching numbered security stickers.
