Infant and Toddler Care
Pines provides care for infants and young children during the two Sunday morning services as well as other church related functions. Childcare is provided so that parents may participate in worship and other activities at Pines. Our mission is to nurture the children with loving care while helping them to experience the love of Christ. We strive to contribute to the well being of each child in a way that will build trust in the family of God.
Sunday Morning Schedule

Child care for children who’s parents are teaching and setting up rooms for Sunday school.

Kids Own Worship
During the 11:00 service children ages 3 1/2 through 3rd grade are invited to come up to the front for a blessing by the minister. They then go with a trained teacher to room W-12 to participate in K.O.W. During this time they will hear Bible stories, play games, do crafts and participate in skits. They will learn about and participate in prayer and worship, and contribute an offering that helps in various outreach projects.
4th & 5th Grade Worship Bags
During both services Worship Bags are available for this age group at the back of the church. In their Sunday school classes they will learn ways to participate in the service that brings them into the experience and makes it a time of growth and connection with their Pines family. Please be sure to return the bags in good order before leaving the service.
Sunday School: Ages 3-5th Grade
Our Sunday morning classes provide a place where children can grow in their faith and relationship with Christ and with each other.
Children ages 3-6 will participate in the curriculum called: Hands On Bible. Hands on activities keep kids engaged as they grow closer to Jesus.
Children in grades 2nd and 3rd will take part in a program called Bible Blitz where they directly explore the Bible and it’s truths.
Children grades 4th & 5th will be
participating in service projects and will go through attention getting Bible lessons that will get them digging into the Bible to answer questions about life and faith.
Faith Weaver Friends
Six Sunday nights in the fall and in the spring your children ages 4 through 5th grade are invited to participate in a community of faith. Every five children will be nurtured and cared for by a trained teen or adult as their mentor. All groups travel to five stations, games, crafts, science, journaling and snacks every 15 minutes. The whole group will participate in songs and Bible skits as well as an outreach project for the session. This is open to our Pines families as well as those outside the family. You are welcome to bring your friends.
