Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14



What To Expect
We are excited to meet you! Be sure to use the Next City Kids entrance on Hillside Avenue to begin the check in process.
First, we'll ask you a few questions in order to register your child into our check-in system. This allows us to provide you and your child with a unique tag that will help us identify you during pick up. Safety is our #1 priority!
Your child will then be escorted down to the lower level where they will experience fun and engaging Bible lessons, worship, activities and more every Sunday!
Early check-in is welcomed [doors open 15 minutes before service begins]
