Grades PreK-6:
Children are welcomed into their grade classrooms by regular leaders that rotate on a bi-monthly basis. The children get to build and strengthen their faith through interactive lessons in their classrooms and through a short engaging video that introduces the week’s topic. Station leaders serve at one service (9 or 11 am) for a whole month, alternating months from September to June. (E.g.: Sept/Nov/Jan/Mar/May)
Total time investment for one year: approx. 40 hours.
Littles (Age 2&3):
Each Sunday our preschool aged children are welcomed into age specific classrooms by regular volunteers that they recognize and feel comfortable with. In their rooms the children will hear a short Bible lesson, taught by their leader and join the preschoolers to watch the week’s video. Station leaders serve at one service (9 or 11 am) for a whole month, alternating months from September to June. (E.g.: Sept/Nov/Jan/Mar/May).
Total time investment for one year: approx. 40 hours.
Security:
Our children’s area is kept safe by roving security personnel, who monitor children as they move from center to center, do head counts, ensure kids are safe in the washrooms, and call for parents if a child is upset. They also help around the basement as necessary. Security personnel serve at one service (9 or 11 am), once per month.
Total time investment for one year: approx. 10 hours.
Nursery Leader:
Each Sunday babies (age 0-2) are welcomed into the nursery. The nursery leader is an adult with experience handling infants.

Nursery leaders serve at one service (9 or 11 am) for a month, alternating months from September to June. (E.g.: Sept/Nov/Jan/Mar/May).
Total time investment for one year: approx. 40 hours.
