Summer Break
We offer Summer Kids Ministry for children ages birth to PreK. We welcome you to check-in before service in the Fellowship Hall (Lower Level). Birth-36 months (Rooms 101 and 102) can be dropped off before the service.
PreK (3 to 6 year olds) are dismissed before the sermon begins. Please pick up your children either before or after communion to join us in the sanctuary for the end of the service.
During the school year, 9 a.m. classes are available for Kindergarten to 2nd grade (K2), 3rd-5th grade (Catechism Class), and 6th-12th grade each Sunday. These classes are on summer break and will resume on September 7th.
Kids Ministry
Nursery & Preschool
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 also have a play based class for 3-5 year olds during the sermon. We teach a Christ-centered, chronological Bible study that puts the gospel at the center of the message. We use The Biggest Story curriculum. For more details about this curriculum, please check out this website: thebiggeststory.com
K2
A kindergarten to 2nd grade class meets from 9 a.m. -9:45 a.m. on Sunday mornings in the K2 room (upper level). They are working through a Christ-centered, chronological Bible study that puts the gospel at the center of the message, via activity sheets, videos, memory verses and songs. For more details about the curriculum, please check out this website: www.thebiggeststory
We also enjoy having these kids join our congregation with their families in the sanctuary during our 10 a.m. service.
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 working through The New City Catechism curriculum.
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.For more details about The New City Catechism, watch this video.
We also enjoy having these kids join our congregation with their families in the sanctuary during our 10 a.m. service.
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.
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.
