What to expect
Here's what to expect when visiting for the first time on a Sunday Morning:
First, head to the Children's Building and locate one of our Welcome Desks. There we will meet your family, check your child(ren) into our check-in system, and then one of our volunteers will lead your child to their age-appropriate room.
Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following personal information (NOTE: We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone):
- Parent/guardian name(s)
- Child's name
- Child's date of birth
- Home address
- Phone number
- Any special instructions (allergies, special needs)
Our nursery is available during all regular activities throughout the year and is staffed with screened, experienced, caring workers and volunteers.
Check-In System
For the safety of our children, we offer a secure electronic check-in system. If you are visiting our church for the first time, please plan to come a little early to register your child in the system. Registration is available for first-time guests on the 2nd floor of the Children’s Building at the Welcome Desk and only takes a few extra minutes of your time!
