Children’s Programs

Children
Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belong the kingdom of God. — Mark 10:14b

We believe it is never too early for children to love and serve our wonderful God. We want to provide all children with a safe, Christian environment to learn, to feel love, and to experience Biblical truths.

Sunday School and Children’s Church

Children are invited to learn about Jesus and the Word of God in an age-appropriate setting designed specially for them! Our Sunday School classes are broken up by age group, starting from birth and continuing through high school. During the worship service, there are also classes available for children from birth through fifth grade. This includes nursery and toddler classes as well as a Children’s Church program for kindergarten through fifth grade.

Our church family is here to model the love of Christ to all ages, including our tiniest members. Our nursery is managed with love to ensure a safe, clean environment for your little one. We have a play area, rocking chairs and also a quiet area with cribs for little ones who may nap during the service.

In our big kids’ Sunday School Class, Joe and Sheila present Bible lessons, having students read from scripture, sometimes act out stories from the Bibles, and enjoy games and activities that reenforce the lessons from Scripture.

Security

The safety and security of your children are the greatest concern to our volunteers, who are background-checked members of the Springhill congregation.

Registration is required for all children 0-5 years old. Parents and guardians must sign in children on the clipboards and receive a numbered security card. You must present this card to pick up your child. Children should be picked up as soon as possible after the service or event ends.

Children above age 5 can be picked up their parent or guardian any time during activities, or children will be brought to meet their parents or guardians in the lobby after the service.

Children’s Church
During the Worship Service, children in Kindergarten through fifth grade are invited to attend Children’s Church in the upstairs of the FLC. Susan Skipper leads this program that includes story-driven lessons to help children understand and apply the Bible’s teachings to their own lives.
