RCC KIDS

OUR CHILDREN’S MINISTRY EXISTS TO PARTNER
WITH PARENTS TO MAKE DISCIPLES IN THEIR HOMES.

We believe our time on Sundays is an amazing opportunity to help our kids deepen their love for God and His word.
We are eager to partner with parents in providing tools to come alongside you as you teach and disciple your family.
When you entrust us with the care of your children during our Sunday service, it is our privilege to provide a fun, safe,
engaging, and Bible-centered children’s ministry for infants through elementary school-aged children.

Our Hope for RCC Kids

We want to see children develop a personal relationship with Jesus, recognizing that it is through faith in Him alone that we find salvation. As children move from class to class, we want to help them grow in their knowledge and understanding of God. We pray that children develop faith and wisdom, ultimately leading to transformed lives for Jesus. Encouraging children to grow in faith is best done in partnership with parents. If you have questions, need support, or are looking for resources, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Gospel-Centered Curriculum

Over a three year period, our curriculum takes kids on a chronological journey through the Bible, watching the gospel unfold from Genesis through Revelation. The children explore how each lesson is connected to God’s greater, unified story of redemption. The gospel's power to transform hearts and lead us on mission is explored. Every week, children will be engaged with gospel-centered stories, worship songs, and class discussions.

Classes Overview

RCC’s children's ministry welcomes children from birth through fifth grade. Care for babies through preschoolers is available from the start of service on Sunday afternoons.

  • Toddlers: Age 18 months through age 2.

  • 4th—5th Grade
* Children in 6th grade or higher attend worship with the entire congregation.

Checking In

RCC utilizes an electronic check-in system for all children participating in the children’s ministry. The first time you check your children in, you will be walked through a short registration process. Upon checking in, each child will receive a name tag and you will receive a receipt. If your child needs you during the service, you will be texted by a volunteer. Please keep your cell phone with you on vibrate during the service.

Security & Procedures

All of our children's ministry volunteers are interviewed and then screened by an external background check provided by Secure Search. After they have been cleared to serve in children's ministry, they receive training and ongoing support from the Family Ministry Team.

Encouraging Kids To "ROCK"

We strive to create a positive, safe environment in our classroom by encouraging the kids to “ROCK,” which means that they should be:
Respectful – Respect the teacher and classmates.
Obedient – Obey the teacher the first time he/she speaks.
Cooperative – Participate in activities with a cheerful disposition.
Kind – Keep our hands to ourselves and treat others how we would like to be treated.

In the event a child chooses not to ROCK, an age appropriate time-out will be utilized. A parent will be paged if the child is posing a safety hazard to him/herself or others.
