Children's Ministries
Welcoming kids on Sunday mornings, Wednesday afternoons, and at seasonal events
Sunday Worship
Babies and kids of every age are always welcome in the sanctuary❤️
Nursery
Babies to 3-year-olds enjoy play time, songs, and snacks in the nursery during the entire service. Check-in opens during the Sunday School hour.
Children's Church
Preschoolers are invited to come to the first part of the worship service, then head out with their teachers to their own lesson, snack, and songs after the children's message.
Worship Bags
Kids in elementary school stay in the worship service, and have their own bulletins with activities and a version of the day's story, as well as worship bags to help them creatively engage.
Bringing a kid for the first time? We would love to answer your questions and show you around! Reach out to Raicheal at the church office, email childrensministry@centralpresby.com, or ask and usher!
