What is Children Worship?

Children Worship is a structured yet flexible worship service specifically designed for children aged 4 to 12 years. It follows a mini version of a church service, including praise and worship, prayer, a short Bible story, creative activities, and fellowship.

Our Vision

  • Foster a Heart of Worship - Teaching children to participate in worship as a natural part of their spiritual life

  • Encourage Family-Integrated Worship - Following biblical examples of families worshiping together

  • Establish Shared Responsibility - Engaging parents and church members in shared roles

Parental Involvement

Parents only join the children worship service when they are scheduled to serve. When scheduled, parents will stay for about 1 hour and may help with:

  • Leading praise and worship

  • Guiding prayer and offering time

  • Sharing the Bible story

  • Coordinating creative activities

  • Facilitating closing prayer and announcements

Monthly Corporate Service

As part of our vision, we will eventually implement a revised monthly corporate service where children of all ages will join their parents in the main worship service. This will affirm the value of family worship and provide space for children to experience the fullness of the church community.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Children Worship different from Sunday School?
Unlike Sunday School, which relies on a dedicated teacher, Children Worship functions as a worship service for kids. It emphasizes worship, parental involvement, and short interactive segments rather than a traditional classroom model.

What about families with children of different ages?
For families with multiple children, we encourage older siblings (ages 10-12) to assist younger ones. Parents can also help with younger children if needed.

Will there be a structured curriculum?
Yes, there will be an all-in-one curriculum, keeping Bible stories short (10 minutes) and activities engaging (10 minutes) to maintain children's attention.

How will Children Worship prepare kids for adult worship?
Because this format mirrors the structure of a church service, it naturally prepares children to transition into the adult service at age 12. They will already be familiar with key worship elements like singing, prayer, and offering.
