Kids & Students · Newborn – 12th grade
Safe rooms, kind leaders,
and a Bible at every age.
Every Sunday at 9:00 and 10:45, and Wednesdays at 7:00, your kids learn the same passage you do, taught at their level. You'll know exactly where they are and who they're with.
Sundays at 9:00 & 10:45
A room for every age,
all down one secure hallway.
Kids classes run during both Sunday services and Wednesday nights. Check in at the kids desk inside the east doors, and a greeter will walk you to the right room.

First Sunday?
Tell us their ages and we’ll map out your whole morning.
Same passage, every age
Kids hear the same Bible
you do. Just smaller words.
Our kids curriculum follows the Sunday teaching, so a four-year-old and their parents go home talking about the same verses. Here's this week's, with questions for the car ride.
Sunday, September 27 · Romans 8:26–27
When we don't know what to pray, the Holy Spirit helps us.
What they heard
“The Spirit prays for me, and God always knows what the Spirit means.”
Ask on the drive home
- 1Romans 8:26 says we're weak. Does that surprise you?
- 2Why would it matter that God knows our hearts?
- 3Is there something you've stopped praying about? Why?
Memory verse: “The Spirit also helps our weaknesses.” Romans 8:26 (WEB)
Check-in & safety
You’ll never wonder
where your kids are.
Safety is the first thing parents ask about, so we'll answer it plainly. These policies aren't suggestions. Every volunteer agrees to them in writing.
- 1
Pre-check in or use a kiosk
Check in from your phone on the way, or at the kiosks inside the east doors. First time? A greeter will walk you through it.
- 2
Matching tags
Your child gets a name tag with allergies printed on it. You get a pickup tag with the same code. No tag, no pickup.
- 3
A secure hallway
The kids wing has one entrance, staffed by a greeter. Only checked-in kids and badged volunteers go past it.
- 4
We text you if they need you
If your child needs you mid-service, your code shows on the screen by the stage and we text you. Most weeks nobody gets a text.
Our non-negotiables
- Every volunteer is background-checked before serving, and again every two years.
- Every volunteer is trained in child safety, abuse prevention, and first aid.
- Two unrelated adults in every room, every time. No volunteer is ever alone with a child.
- Volunteers must attend Lamplight for six months before serving with kids.
- Windows in every classroom door, and a hall monitor who walks the wing all morning.
- Nut-free rooms. Allergies are printed on every child's tag.
