Kids Ministry
Nursery & K-2
We believe that meaningful ministry that points children to Christ should begin at the youngest ages. We offer nursery during each Sunday Gathering for infants and toddlers through 36 months. We have a preschool class for 3-5 year olds and a K-2 class for kids in kindergarten to 2nd grade during the sermon.
Our entire Kids Ministry (birth to 2nd grade) uses The Gospel Project curriculum, which is:
The Gospel Project® for Kids delivers engaging Bible story videos, music for all ages, low-prep lesson plans, fun-filled activity sheets and more to help you teach kids how God’s plan of redemption unfolds throughout Scripture and is relevant today. Kids will gain a clear understanding of the entire gospel story—how all of Scripture points to the gospel of Jesus.

New City Catechism Class
A 3rd-5th Grade class meets from 9am-9:45am on Sunday mornings in the Fireside Room (lower level). They are going through The New City Catechism curriculum, which is:
The New City Catechism is a modern-day resource aimed at helping children and adults alike learn the core doctrines of the Christian faith via 52 questions and answers.

Youth Ministry
Youth Sunday School
Youth ages 6th-12th grade meet in the youth room (top floor in the education wing) from 9am-9:45 on Sunday mornings. They are going through the book “10 Questions Every Teen Should Ask (and Answer) About Christianity” by Rebecca McLaughlin.
Youth Events
The youth group hosts once-a-month social events. These usually take place out in the community and involve a lot of fun and time to connect with each other. Some examples of past events include: Board game/Vikings game watch party, winter sledding, Autumn hike, and an apple picking trip.
Church-Wide Events
Whenever TCC hosts a church-wide event, an effort is made to include the youth ministry in some specific way, for example; helping to decorate tables for our Thanksgiving potluck, playing games as a group during our winter retreat, and participating in our Fall Festival.
