We love the kids of COTC
We desire to have the mind of Christ, who said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.” (Matthew 19:14)
We are committed to offering a safe and secure environment for your children. All of our volunteers have gone through background checks and an training. If you have any concerns about a volunteer, do not hesitate to contact Briana.
Nursery and Preschool
The Young Garden classes open 15 minutes prior to service. Parents will check in a child with a cell phone number so our team may contact you if needed. Once in class, children sing, play, and explore the stories of Jesus. Our curriculum stories repeat on a 3-week basis for young ones to gain familiarity and practice with repetition. Parents are encouraged to pick up during communion to share in the practice and the table with our whole church family. Classes remain open until the end of communion to allow all volunteers serving in classes to participate in the Lord's Table.
“Sprouts” Kindergarten - 2nd Grade
Sprouts will "follow the cross" out of the service before the Liturgy of the Word and return after the Prayers of the People. Once in class, kids will sing memory songs, practice verses and catechism questions, and explore God's Word through live storytelling materials, games, and crafts.
“Roots" 3rd Grade - 5th Grade
Roots will "follow the cross" out of the service before the Liturgy of the Word and return after the Prayers of the People. Once in class, kids will share in liturgy, practice verses and catechism questions, explore God's Word through live storytelling, discussion, and reading directly from Bibles. Your child is welcome to bring their Bible to class.
