Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.
Matthew 19:14
Our Mission
To help children grow in their relationship with Jesus as they continue to grow in their faith through learning Bible stories, worshiping, fellowship, and serving.
Trinity UMC Church wants to partner with parents on the journey of spiritual growth for your children from preschool through 5th grade. Our greatest desire is to help families and their children “Believe in Jesus Christ, Belong to the family of believers, and be disciples who know their scriptures and live them in our world”. We look forward to sharing this faith journey with you and your child!
Curriculum
Children ages 3 years through 5th Grade are a part of Children’s Sunday School. We use “Deep Blue” curriculum from Cokesbury. The curriculum features a 3 year scope and sequence for ages 3-5 years and Kindergarten-5th grades. It also includes parent devotionals, talking points, and a mobile app.
Sunday School and Nursery Times
Our nursery is available during all three worship services from 8:30-12:00 in Lowrie Worship Center for children birth through 2 years old.
Our Sunday School classes begin when a child has celebrated his/ her 3rd birthday by September 1st of the current year. The children that are 3, 4, and 5 years old meet in the Lowrie Worship Center next door to the nursery. There is a Sunday School class at 9:45 and one after the children’s moment during the 11:00 worship that children may share join in.
What happens at Sunday School?
Children in kindergarten through fifth grade meet together upstairs at 9:45 for a combined Sunday School Group. After the children’s moment at the 11:00 worship service the children in grades kindergarten through fifth grade go upstairs during worship service for our weekly Sunday School Bible story, songs, and craft.
Our Deep Blue Curriculum teaches kids about God and what it means to be a follower of Jesus through Bible stories and opportunities to serve as disciples in the classroom, the local community, and the world! There is an app to reinforce the weekly lesson, scripture for the month, as well as the weekly Bible video.
