PRESCHOOL

Our Preschool Ministry strives to provide an inviting, safe, and fun place for our Preschoolers from birth through pre-k to learn the foundational truths about God. Sunday mornings, starting at 9:30 small group hour, we offer age-appropriate classes with biblical teaching, crafts, games, and play. At 10:45 they will transition to 'Extended Session" which is held during worship service without any disruption to their play. The secure dedicated Preschool space is located on our main level just down the hall from worship service.
Our dedicated leaders Know Jesus and desire to Make Him Known to the youngest within our church family.

KIDS

Kids have the opportunity at The Ave to own their space and to grow their relationship with Christ in a fun, age-appropriate way. Kids Ministry Hallway is located on our 2nd level, just above our gym on the north side of the building.
Sunday mornings, starting at 9:30 am, there is two classes the children are placed in based on their school grade level. Our leaders teach God’s word and seek to apply it to their lives.
'To Know Jesus and Make Him Known"

Kid's Worship

Kids Worship is for Kindergartners through 3rd graders to engage in an age appropriate worship time at 10:45am. Leaders walk alongside the kids as they connect with God through a time of worship, a bible story video, snacks, crafts and games. All of our Kids Ministries are held in our Kids hall way, upstairs from the gym.
For kids who joined us for small group at 9:30, they will be transitioned to Kids Worship with our dedicated Leaders. Parents may be pick up after worship service concludes.

TeamKID

TeamKID (Kids in Discipleship) is a dynamic, Bible-based program designed for children in Preschool-5th grade. It’s all about helping kids grow in their understanding of God, build a relationship with Jesus, and apply their faith in everyday life. Bible story, missions, crafts and game time all are centered around the truth in Christ.
Join us in the KIDS ministry hall, each Wednesday night from 6-7:30pm, starting in September through May.

The Ave strives to provide not just safe childcare for the youngest in our church, but to use that time to show the love of Jesus to each preschooler and kid.
