Here at the Vineyard we place a high value on our kids. We provide a safe, fun, and educational environment for kids to lean and interact with each other. Our hope is that they can start to develop a personal relationship with Jesus during this pivotal time in their life.
**Safety is a priority for us. All volunteers and staff have undergone a thorough background check.

Early Childhood Ministries (Infant/Toddler Nurseries)
In early childhood, we create a loving, quiet, and calming environment for our little ones to discover and explore. We love getting to know each of them, seeing what captures their attention, and watching them make new friends. It’s also in this place where we use a simple curriculum that equips parents and volunteers to pray specific blessings over each child, explore who God is, and try things out for the first time.
Preschool Ministries
This class is designed for children ages 3 thru 5 who are potty trained and have not entered Kindergarten. With this group, we help children to discover, learn, and understand basic concepts about God’s truth and Jesus’ love. We do this with signing, creative bible stories, and fun activities. We offer kids some free playtime to help them learn to interact with each other, as well as snack time serving Goldfish crackers.
Elementary Ministries
Kindergarten thru Third grade – This group is starts off with some fun interactive worship and then uses Elevate curriculum, which is designed to educate and challenge kids to try and learn and live out aspects of faith in God.
Fourth & Fifth Grade – This group provides pre-teens an opportunity to wrestle with the tough questions they have regarding faith and belief in Jesus. We focus on helping them engage the scriptures to understand more of God’s truths, and how they can apply these truths in everyday life.
Family Room – This is a room where you can enjoy a live video feed of the entire service. If your child is having a difficult time staying in their class, you can stay with them in the family room and we will get some activities for your child to do.
