This is the exciting world of children’s ministry at The Point! We believe that kids are not the church of tomorrow; they are the church of today and are a vital part of our vision and ministry here at The Point.
We are committed to investing time, resources and energy into the lives of children and their families. Our goal is to partner with parents to ensure that each child grows in their walk with God and in their understanding and application of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as they encounter Truth, Worship Jesus, learn to live in biblical Community and live on Mission each day. Our desire is that each child will ultimately come to know Jesus and grow in that personal relationship.
Our dedicated team of teachers and volunteers serve unselfishly to model and teach the love of our Savior. All children’s ministry workers at The Point have been screened, interviewed, trained, and tested and the environment in which children are taught and cared for during each worship service or midweek program is loving, fun, engaging, safe, competent and clean. We absolutely LOVE kids at The Point!
WeePoint
WeePoint is our Sunday preschool ministry for ages birth thru 4 years and is offered during each worship gathering. Our preschool ministry creates weekly opportunities for infants and toddlers to have fun in a safe, nurturing environment. Our screened and trained volunteers take joy in caring for children and teaching them about Jesus.
KidsPoint
While we value family worship, we offer KidsPoint Worship as an option during each of our Sunday morning gatherings. This is a fun and engaging opportunity for children K-3rd grade to worship in a safe, loving, engaging environment while parents participate in corporate worship. Children are dismissed to join their families to participate together in the larger setting following the message.
In a nutshell, we seek to offer life-changing children’s ministry where Jesus is magnified and God’s Word is creatively taught and expressed, where its unchanging truths are presented in ways that engage a child’s heart and mind, where shepherding children and equipping parents is intentional, where kids are safe to be who they are and ask questions, and where discovering God’s truth is exciting and fun!
Curriculum
We believe that children can handle deep truth even at a young age. Their minds are like sponges and they memorize things almost effortlessly. So, our curriculum is intended to cultivate a strong knowledge of God and to immerse kids in the Bible at a very early age.
Many children’s ministry curriculum uses Bible stories to teach moral lessons and values. This approach misses the point by making the Bible out to be a moral guide instead of a book about Jesus! Our curriculum is designed to make the character of God and the person and work of Jesus central in every story and lesson. In all classrooms we sing, pray, tell Bible stories, ask questions, and work on craft projects all according to age groups.
