WC Kids

We believe fostering a personal faith in Jesus Christ in children is one of the most important parts of being a community church. There are many available ministries created for each and every age group, from nursery to sixth grade.
"Our mission in WCKids is to intentionally seek ways to partner with parents to help facilitate this journey.”

You can do all of this and more any Sunday! When you serve in WCKids you have the opportunity to love kids, meet and connect with other volunteers and grow in your own walk with God.

WCKids pledges to continue partnering with you to make disciples of Jesus Christ. Because we cannot be together on Sunday, we are offering Sunday school opportunities for you to do together at home. Each Sunday we release new Preschool and Elementary worship services on both Facebook and YouTube, you can participate in our watch parties or view them at any time that is convenient for your family. To help you continue those lessons, we post activities for each age group on Facebook and in our WCKids Dropbox. The links to Dropbox, Facebook and YouTube can be found below. We hope that you will enjoy having this time together with your kids to connect with Jesus!

We’d love to get you plugged into a class as soon possible, please sign up for one or more of these exciting opportunities and the month(s) that works best for you.
