GM Kids

In the Babies room, we strive to ensure that each child is loved and cared for according to their individual needs. This room is filled with snuggles, prayers, and love as our volunteers take caring for the youngest GM Kids seriously. At drop-off, please inform a volunteer of any special instructions for feeding and diaper changing.

This toddler room is a fun, active place where toddlers can explore with toys, music, and interactions with our volunteers! In Crawlers and Walkers, we aim to start preparing them for the next room. They will listen to worship music and enjoy a snack! We understand that a new place can be scary and intimidating at this age. However, our volunteers are ready to give snuggles to our kiddos and reassurance to our parents. It is a GM Kids policy not to let a child remain inconsolable for any longer than 5-7 minutes unless specified by a parent. At drop-off, please inform a volunteer of any special instructions for feeding and diaper changing.

Two-year-olds love to explore new things! In our two-year-old room, they will begin to learn how to sit for a Bible lesson. Our volunteers actively engage with this curious and fun age group by playing, introducing memory verses, and teaching them how to pray. At drop-off, please inform a volunteer of any special instructions for feeding and diaper changing.

Three-year-olds are curious, active, and love to learn while having fun! In this age group, we start learning how to worship, listen to a lesson, and make a craft that they can take home to share with mom and dad. In this room, our three-year-olds will be dropped off in their classroom. When it is time for worship and our lesson, they will walk together with their leaders to our Pre-K Worship Room. There, they will hear about our Pre-K expectations, learn how to worship God, and listen to a true story from the Bible. Once their time in the Worship Room is over, they will head back to their room, complete a craft, have a snack, and wait for mom and dad to pick them up.

At this age, you will often hear the question “Why?” We want to explore what God’s Word says in a tangible way, allowing them to not only understand but also to go home and tell mom and dad all about the lesson! Our Sunday morning begins with drop-off in the classroom. When it’s time, our fours and fives head to our Pre-K Worship Room where they will learn about our Pre-K expectations, worship God, hear a true story from the Bible, and discuss it in small groups. After their time in the Worship Room, they will return to their classroom to complete an activity and craft that reinforces the lesson they just heard. At the end of the service, fours and fives enjoy free play until parent pick-up.

During free time, your elementary-aged child can enjoy a variety of activities such as air hockey, ping-pong, giant Connect Four, basketball, and more. We also offer a coloring room and a board game room. All free-time activities are supervised & monitored by volunteers.

Our worship time takes place in a large room where kids sit by grade with their leaders and friends! They engage in high-energy worship, hear a creative, age-appropriate lesson from a live teacher, and participate in Memory Verse Madness where they compete in in games to help memorize God’s Word.

Small Groups are organized by grade. Our leaders are intentional during this time, reviewing the lesson from that day and discussing how to apply God’s Word to our lives, regardless of age. Group leaders are experts at navigating each age group and how to tailor their questions to every grade and age. Our leaders are consistent and take time to get to know each child and what is going on in their life!
