What is Elevate Kids?
Elevate Kids is an exciting children’s ministry designed to help your boy or girl take their next steps toward Christ. Each weekend the countdown starts to our high energy time of worship and learning in the Elevate Kid’s ministry area…..where your child will be challenged each week on the importance of memorizing and learning God’s word, encouraged to become a giver, participate in interactive worship songs, and enjoy skits and games that go along with the weekly lesson.
Who Attends Elevate Kids?
ALL boys and girls ages 4 through 5th grades attend Elevate Kids each Sunday!
How Can I Stay In The Loop?
You can keep up with quick updates, encouragements and reminders by Elevate Kids Facebook page
Relationships
We desire for each child to experience a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. We also value children’s relationships within the small group setting as they relate to their small group leader and other children within the group. As families commit to attending the same service each week, children are placed in a group of familiar faces where relationships can grow!
Safety
We believe that safety is vital as families entrust us with their children each week. Therefore, every child’s name tag is matched to a parent-identification tag, every volunteer is screened with an interview and federal background check, and every hallway is monitored with security personnel.
Creative Bible Teaching
The Bible is the most amazing book ever written! We strive to bring its stories to life through activities and discussions that keep children engaged. We want all children to love God’s word and understand the value of applying it to their lives.
Fun!
Kids love fun! We realize that when children have fun at church, they can’t wait to come back. We value creating fun ways for children to learn about Jesus.
First Time at Elevate Kids?
To better serve the needs of the children we ask every 1st time guest to fill out a kid connect card. We will meet your family and check your child into our system. Once your family is checked in, one of our volunteers will be happy to show you the Elevate Kids ministry area.
We will ask for the following personal information: family member’s names, children’s names and birthdates, family address, phone number, and any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your child.
You and your child will be given matching identification tags that are exclusive to your family and your visit. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion of your matching identification tag. During checkout you will be ask to show the matching I.D. tag in order for your child to be released back to you.
On your way home, be sure to ask your child: “Did you have fun?” and “What did you learn
today?”
A Special Note
If for some reason you need to enter the Elevate Kids Ministry Center you will need to find a member of Elevate Kids Team who will give you a Guest ID tag to wear and will escort you to the ministry area.
What Should I Expect When I Return to Elevate Kids?
As you enter Elevate Kids, your first stop should be at our Check-In Station where a friendly volunteer will check your child in for the service. Our check-in stations open 15 minutes prior to the service.
We provide every child and parent/guardian with an ID tag/card every Sunday when the child is check in. Please hold on to your portion of the ID card until checkout at the end of the service. You will need it to check your child out of Elevate Kids. No child is released unless the matching identification sticker is presented
We ask that each child be checked out immediately after the worship service is dismissed.
Please be sure to ask any of our amazing volunteers or staff if you have questions about our values, policies or procedures. Thanks for checking out Elevate Kids!
