Kids Ministry

Our COVID 19 Response:

The health and safety of our children, parents, grandparents and volunteers is very important to us. We also know the value and importance for children to continue growing and learning in God’s Word. For that reason we have a list of guidelines for coming to church. We hope with these precautions and guidelines, you will feel comfortable and confident in bringing your children to South Elm Kids. 

They are as follows:

Masks are required for everyone ages 5yrs and up.

  • All teachers/volunteers and children will get temperature checked before going into the children’s wing. 

  • All rooms will be sanitized before/after being used. 

  • Children and volunteers will need to wash hands as soon as they enter the room and before they leave. 

  • Only one adult should walk their child to class. The less people moving through the halls the better. 

  • If a child, parent or volunteer has these symptoms (except for allergies) please stay home:

  • Fever or chills

  • Cough

  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing

  • Fatigue

  • Muscle or body aches

  • Headache

  • New loss of taste or smell

  • Sore throat

  • Congestion or runny nose

  • Nausea or vomiting

  • Diarrhea

*We will do our best to keep children socially distant and safe but there is no guarantee that it will work 100% of the time. 

Our Schedule:

 
Connection Groups.png

SUndays at 9:40 am

Connection groups are provided for all ages of the church. In South Elm Kids we break up the classes according to age. Each group studies the Gospel Project for Kids. The Gospel Project takes kids on a Christ-centered, chronological journey through Scripture. Kids will discover how the gospel unfolds from Genesis through Revelation. When kids truly experience the gospel, their hearts are transformed. It is the gospel, not good behavior, that changes everything. Connection Groups start at 9:45 on Sunday mornings.

Wednesdays at 6:30 pm

J.A.M Jr. is targeted for 2-3yr olds. Your preschooler will learn Biblical truths with interactive lessons that use everyday objects, games, stories, and music.

Sundays at 11 am

Kids connection is designed to continue learning after connection groups while parents are in the worship service. Every week, kids go on a Bible adventure with Emily and an animated star named Shine, sing a memorable song with Mr. Music, memorize a verse with Guy the Bible Guy, and see how the Bible story applies to everyday life with Shine's animated friends. Download the Bible App for Kids to extend biblical learning all throughout the week at home!

Wednesdays at 6:30 pm

J.A.M uses everyday objects and hands on activities to bring Biblical stories to life. Your child will get to experience biblical truths in a way that is easy for them to understand and apply to their life.

About Us 

It is our heartbeat and desire to teach children from birth about the Love of Christ on their individual learning levels. We have age graded classes for birth through pre-k and from Kindergarten through sixth grade. Our goal is to lay a firm foundation for children to accept Christ by presenting the Gospel truths from the Bible in ways that are age appropriate. Children are taught through the use of many resources and tools. And we know that children, especially preschoolers are very active. We teach through art, blocks, books, pictures, home living, music, nature and puzzles. The Bible is the foundational part of teaching and is used throughout these areas. At South Elm, we have a place for every child.
