Let the children
come to me.
Grow in Faith
Kids Ministry (Sunday School)
A welcoming, joyful place for children to grow in faith, friendship, and God’s love.
Who We Serve
Our Sunday School program is open to children in Pre-K through 8th grade and runs from September through early June. Classes are taught by caring, experienced teachers using Reformed, Bible-based curricula. Parent volunteers support our teachers and help make each Sunday special.
Nursery Care is always available on each Sunday for our youngest.
What to Expect on Sundays
• Children begin worship in the Sanctuary with their families.
• After the first hymn, they are lovingly dismissed to their classrooms.
• We offer four classes each week, with children grouped by birth date.
• Each child learns with the same teacher all year, creating stability and connection.
• Following service on Sunday’s all children meet up with their parents in coffee hour. Unless its the first Sunday of the month, when children will rejoin their families in the Sanctuary for Communion.
Our Weekly Rhythm
Every class includes:
• A Bible story with an age-appropriate message
• A hands-on craft to reinforce learning
• A Children’s Corner section is included in the Weekly IPC Communications email, and includes a summary of the lesson and ideas to continue the conversation at home
Our classrooms this year have given themselves their own names, and lovely called:
• God’s Rainbow Chicken Truck Family (4-5’s Ms Ane)
• Faith XPerience (6-7’s Mr Freedom)
• God’s Preppy Chicken Family (8-9’s Ms Jaclyn)
Middle School Youth Group
The Middle School Youth Group meets on the third Sunday of most months. Each meeting is either a mission opportunity, social event, and faith discussions. It is usually scheduled from 1pm to 2pm.
High School Students
Our High School students, participate in an interfaith Youth Group that is based in the Rivertown’s.
Communion Sundays
On the first Sunday of each month, classes end a few minutes early so children can rejoin their families in the Sanctuary for Communion.
Special Events Throughout the Year
In addition to Sunday lessons, we offer joyful seasonal opportunities led by church volunteers and parents, including:
• Advent workshops
• Our theatrical Christmas pageant
• Easter Egg hunts
• Participation in the Children’s Choir
These events help children build friendships, express creativity, and feel part of our church family.
