Immanuel Kids

At every level of Immanuel Kids, we strive to provide excellent care & Biblically-sound instruction from volunteers who are committed to serving children with excellence.

We labor together to make Christ known by sharing the Good News of Christ with joy!

We use Gospel-centered curriculum designed by Children Desiring God. This curriculum is developmentally appropriate and theologically sound. It explains the true overarching story of the Bible, the character of God, and the plan of redemption of Christ.

Most age groups have a 2-year curriculum rotation that also includes Scripture memory, prayer for missions, and volunteer-led worship. Each age group has teachers and small group shepherds that build relationships with your children.

All of the volunteers that serve in Immanuel Kids are believing, faithful members of the church. In order to serve with our children, volunteers must submit an application, complete a background check, and provide a recommendation from their Gospel Community Group leader. Formal volunteer trainings are offered twice a year; ongoing training occurs regularly as new volunteers begin.

Adults serve in teams and are never alone with children. We serve allergy-friendly snacks (gluten free cheerios and water) and are sensitive and supportive of those children that have allergy needs. In addition, we do offer in-classroom support for children that might need assistance in group learning situations, as well as a Sensory Room for children and youth (K-12th) with sensory needs (application required).

We count it a great privilege to partner with our families as we love, serve, and train their children to love God and to love His mission. Immanuel Kids is not a playground. Instead, we are building a foundation of Bible truth into the lives of the next generation of children. We teach, listen, laugh, discuss, pray, and sing. We love one another. Together we are building a community where Christ is King.

Could any of your children benefit from a therapeutic space that provides tailored sensory input and output opportunities to calm their bodies and focus their minds to learn and interact with others?

Immanuel is now offering a larger and better-equipped sensory room for children in K-8th grade with sensory needs. Located in the prayer room hall on the second floor, experienced workers will volunteer in this room from 9:25-10:55 (after musical worship and during transition time between services). The room is equipped with a traverse rock climbing wall, three swings, a trampoline, quiet space, tactile surfaces, and more.

Children who utilize this space have a wide range of need. An application must be on file for a child to participate, but no medical diagnosis is required. Once approved, you can also assist your child/children at any time he/she/they could benefit. Contact Immanuel Kids' Special Needs Director Whitney Holsteen for further questions.
