Children’s Ministry at Redeemer
Our vision is to help parents in the spiritual nurture of their children by seeing children GROW as disciples and GO make disciples.
KNOW JESUS, FOLLOW JESUS, AND SHARE JESUS
We desire for the children of Redeemer…
To KNOW JESUS
through the story of God’s rescue: God’s family is called to tell the Gospel story from generation to generation. We are committed to telling God’s story of creation, fall, redemption to our children trusting that through this they will encounter the person of Jesus Christ.
To FOLLOW JESUS
by knowing our place in his story: We desire that our children know their place in God’s story, and we encourage them to follow Jesus faithfully in all areas of their life.
To SHARE JESUS
the story and love of JESUS: From a young age, we want our children to have opportunities to serve and share God’s story with others.

Redeemer is currently using the Show Me Jesus Sunday School curriculum by Great Commission Publishing (gcp.org). We are very excited about the scope and sequence of the Show Me Jesus curriculum; it is thoughtfully and purposefully planned with children, parents, and teachers in mind. The children will cycle through the whole of Scripture every two years. We want to work together with you to help your child to KNOW Jesus, FOLLOW Jesus and SHARE Jesus. If you are interested in reading through the goals and objectives for each Sunday School class, you can find that here: CM Sunday School Goals & Objectives.
Children’s Church
-
Children ages Pre-k (4 year olds) and Kindergarteners (5/6 year olds) are invited to attend Children’s Church during the Song of Preparation before the sermon at the 11:00 am service only. At this time, we will not offer Children’s Church at the 8:15 am service. Children’s Church consists of a lesson, singing, and an opportunity for students to meet the Elder of the week. This is an optional activity that will help to prepare your child for participating in the full worship service.
Nursery
-
At both the 8:15 am and 11:00 am services, we offer childcare for children ages 3 and under.
-
We also have a nursing mother's room available on the lower level. Changing tables and changing supplies are also available on the lower level. Our nursery leader will be happy to answer any questions and help you get settled.
Volunteers
-
All volunteers in the Nursery, as well as all Sunday School and Children’s Church teachers are required to complete a staff screening, background check, code of conduct and online training prior to serving in the children’s ministry.
