KIDS MINISTRY
WEEKEND SERVICES
NURSERY | SUNDAYS AT 10:00 AM
(Birth to 18 months)
Each Sunday in our Nursery, your kids are lovingly cared for by our wonderful volunteers who follow a prayer guide that correlates to the current sermon and pray over infants and families.
TODDLER & PRESCHOOL | SUNDAYS AT 10:00 AM
(Toddler: 18 months-3 years old) (Preschool: 3-5 year olds)
Each Sunday in our Toddler and Preschool classrooms, your kids will participate in free play, fun worship songs, a Bible lesson, and more in order to create an interactive, safe, and loving environment for them to enjoy coming to church.
ELEMENTARY | SUNDAYS AT 10:00 AM
(Kindergarten-6th Grade)
Each Sunday in our Elementary classrooms, your kids will participate in worship time together, high-energy and fun activities, and a Bible lesson tied to a specific portion of Scripture each week.
All of our kids ministry volunteers have completed their mandatory PA State Child Protective Service clearances.
OUR BIG WIN
WE WIN WHEN A KID TAKES A STEP TOWARDS OWNING THEIR FAITH.
There’s no finish line or certificate of completion when it comes to spiritual growth. Instead, spiritual growth is a journey — a lifelong journey — and no two journeys are identical. That’s why our big win doesn’t have anything to do with a specific skill or achievement. Instead, we win anytime we see a kid take a single step closer to owning their faith.
WEEKLY PROGRAMS
CAlling all 4th-6th graders!
J-Walkers is a unique space for an age group that often feels “caught in-between”—feeling a bit “too old” in kids ministry and yet still too young for our middle-high school youth group. J-Walkers give preteens a space of their own to fellowship with each other, find mentorship from an adult small group leader, and work through questions of their faith as they learn who Jesus is and why it’s so great to follow Him! Join us on Wednesday evenings from 6:30-8:00pm for from March 13-May 8, 2024 at Bellevue Christian Church.
CHILD DEDICATION
You weren’t made to raise your kids on your own.
We’re a church where ordinary families are learning to live everyday life like Jesus together, and we want to come alongside you and share the joys and struggles of parenting. Child Dedication is an opportunity for you to thank God for the gift of children, make a public commitment to raising your children to follow Jesus, and invite the rest of your church family into the journey.
If you’re interested in dedicating your children, we ask that you attend our mandatory child dedication class. (There’s childcare!) We’ll share about God’s vision for your family and what to expect at the Child Dedication service.
Our next Child Dedication Class will be offered on Sunday, April 28, immediately following the worship service (11:30 AM) and our next Child Dedication Service will be Sunday, May 12 at the 10:00 AM worship service.
If you've attended our dedication class for a previous child, you do not need to attend the class again.

KIDS MINISTRY DIRECTOR
“I love kids ministry because while I am teaching the kids, they are also teaching me and reminding me that the ultimate joy of following Jesus is getting to be a child that’s loved by him.”

PARENT HANDBOOK
We know being a parent is one of the hardest jobs on the planet, but it’s also the greatest thing you will ever do! We know your job isn’t always easy, but here’s what we want you to know: we’re here to help in any way we can. We may be a kids ministry, but that doesn’t mean kids are the only people we care about. We care about you too!
No matter how connected (or not connected) you are with our church, this Parent Handbook will show you some of the ways we’re trying to care for your kids and serve you at the same time.
