New Life Church - Childrens Ministry

Leading children into a transforming encounter with Christ

Impress my words on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

- Deut. 6:7

At New Life Church we believe that children and families MATTER, and we want to inspire their hearts and imaginations, helping them form healthy spiritual habits, through family-empowered ministry. Our teams lead the kids in praise and worship, fun activities and age group specific curriculum–all designed to help kids develop a personal relationship with Jesus.

If you have any questions, or would like to talk to someone about our Children’s Ministry please contact our Children’s Ministry Director, Judy Morelli; jmorelli@newlifechurchsb.org

Preschool to 3rd Grade

For children preschool age to 3rd grade, we offer the “Tru” curriculum that tells “God’s Big Story.” Children learn about God’s redemptive plan in a fun and interactive environment through games, stories, songs and much more. Read more about the “Tru” curriculum by following this link.

J12 – 4th through 6th Grade

Grades 4th through 6th participate in our J12 Ministry. J12 Ministry is based on who Jesus was and how he behaved at the age of 12. We believe Jesus’ testimony at that young age is the perfect model for young people today. For more information regarding our J12 ministry, follow the link.

F.A.Q’s

Where do I drop off my child?

When you come to church, you will drop off your children in the church lobby at the registration desk. If it is your first time at church, you will be asked to fill out an information card for your child. The teachers will then escort your child to the classroom or, if you prefer, you can go with them and take a look around.

What happens after I drop my child off?

Our children are ministered to in a comfortable and fun environment, staffed by caring teachers, who are committed to helping them experience God. Our children’s ministry program may include one or all of the following elements: a story from the bible, worship, prayer, a craft and almost always a yummy snack. We make sure that the kids have tons of fun. At New Life Church it’s good to be a kid!

What are the yellow wristbands for?

At New Life Church we take your child’s safety and care seriously. One way we help keep your children safe is by using our individually labeled yellow wristbands to pair you with your child. When you arrive, we will give you and your children matching numbered wristbands. When you pick your child up, you will be asked to show your wristband.

What if my child cries or is shy about staying in the class?

Our teachers are experienced in helping children feel safe and comfortable. Your child may have a hard time in the beginning, but it is our experience that they quickly join in the fun, laughing and making new friends. Rest assured that if your child continues to feel uncomfortable, one of our teacher helpers will come get you.
