August Theme:
God Hears Me When I Pray

Zoo Clue: I can talk to God anywhere

Scripture: “Nothing is impossible with God” (Luke 1:37)

Bible Story: Jonah

Zooper Church Songs:
“Bigger than Big” – Whirl-n-Worship
“Talk” – KidMo Jr. Worship CD
“The Shrink Song” – Little Praise Party

Families will love the October 31st Party!

To ensure a safe and healthy environment for every child, we request that parents take responsibility for making sure their children are well before coming to church. Please make sure children are symptom free for at least 24 hours before bringing them to their class.

What if my child is unable to stay in class?

We want everyone to have an incredible worship experience and that's why we offer parent rooms and nursing rooms to accommodate those with fussy or vocal children. These rooms have play areas for the kids along with TV monitors of the service so you don't miss what's happening. If your child becomes too active or fussy, we kindly ask that you take advantage of these options.

How do I dedicate my child to the Lord?

We believe dedicating children to the Lord is a very important step in raising them in a God-honoring way. We offer a Baby Dedication Class as well as Celebration for parents who would like to dedicate their child to the Lord.
