WHITNEYKIDS

Welcome to the Whitney Kids' program! At Whitney, we believe that children are a gift from God to nurture, love, and protect. Whitney Kids strives to establish an environment that will encourage each and every child to know and experience the love and hope of Jesus Christ and share that with others. We work hard to make our children's classes welcoming, engaging, and safe. There will always be at least two staff members in each classroom. All staff are qualified according to our Children's Ministry Safety Policy.

What to Expect on a Sunday

  • Nursery aged children (0-2 years old) can be checked in at the beginning of the 10:30 service.
  • Kids ages 3 through 5th grade stay with parents until after the worship song time, when they're dismissed downstairs to their classes.
  • When you walk through the doors on the parking lot side of the church, the kids' check-in table will be to your left in the back of the sanctuary.
  • Our kids' classes are downstairs, but we welcome you to check out our kids' classrooms before the service starts so you can see what our classrooms look like!

“We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.”
