Igniting Faith in the Hearts of Our Youngest Members
Our passion is to inspire and empower the next generation from an early age, guiding them on a journey of connection with Jesus. Our weekend services offer a secure and exciting kids’ experience that caters to various age groups, featuring both large and small group settings. Kids programming is offered at all of our services. Check-in opens 10 minutes before the start of each service and closes 10 minutes after the start of each service.
If your child has special needs, we’re here to support you in ministering to them.

BIRTH (8 WEEKS) – 2 YEARS OLD
Our nursery is designed to be a joyful and engaging environment where babies and toddlers can play, learn, and experience the love of God. Here, they will have the opportunity to enjoy playful activities, listen to uplifting songs, and hear heartwarming stories that introduce them to their heavenly Father. Our dedicated team of caregivers is committed to creating a safe and nurturing space where your little ones can begin to build their spiritual foundation.
PRE-K – 4 YEARS OLD
Our toddler nurseries are vibrant spaces that not only engage and inspire but also nurture and educate our youngest members about the love of Jesus. Through interactive play and age-appropriate teachings, toddlers embark on a journey of faith discovery. For our early elementary kids, each session is filled with joyous singing, captivating Bible stories, and exciting activities that are thoughtfully designed to reinforce the day’s valuable lesson, making their experience both spiritually enriching and enjoyable.
KINDERGARTEN – 5TH GRADE
Our high-energy worship sessions create an engaging atmosphere where they can connect with Jesus in a meaningful way. Age-targeted Bible lessons, interactive small group discussions, and themed games all work together to provide a holistic and enjoyable spiritual journey, helping them grow in their faith while having a great time.
BAPTISM4KIDS
The primary aim of our Kid’s Ministry is to guide your child toward a transformative connection with Jesus. If your child shows an interest in embracing Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, along with a desire for baptism, utilize our BAPTISM4KIDS class, offered every 1st and 3rd Sunday @ 11AM.
WHAT TO EXPECT
We’re here to assist with any questions you may have about the average experience for our kid’s programming.
WHERE DO I ENTER?
If you are planning to check in a child, you can park and enter the front of the building from 501. At the family entrance, you will be greeted by the kids’s ministry check-in team.
HOW DO I CHECK IN?
The security of our kids is a priority at Ekklesia. Upon arrival, please visit one of our secure kid’s check-in systems. A team member will assist you with the process. There, you will receive identification tags with matching security numbers. Your child will wear this tag in class, and you will keep the other until it is time for pick up.
WHERE IS PICK UP?
Once the service is ended, you will pick up your child in the classroom where you dropped them off. You will be asked to present your identification tag received in check-in that matches your child’s code. Then your child will be released to you.
