Gen Kids!

We are excited to offer GenKids! to our little ones from age 2 to 8. 
This class takes place during the Sunday morning message. Children leave the sanctuary at the close of worship to learn a Bible story, sing songs and color or make a craft. Parents are provided with a prompt sheet each week so that they can ask their child what they learned and help reinforce the lesson at home. Children are encouraged to work on monthly memory verses to begin storing God's Word in their hearts.

On the 4th and 5th Sundays of each month, GenKids! join the other children in the sanctuary throughout the service. Noise and distractions are a welcome part of teaching children how to participate in service and join with the entire community of Christ.

Our goal is to equip parents to be the primary spiritual leaders for their children so that they grow deep roots of faith. We want children to experience God alongside the rest of the church family where they are known, valued and encouraged. If you would like to know more about this approach, please stop by the children's desk for a free copy of the book Parenting in the Pew.

Here are some of the family resources available:
  • Church bags are ready for each child through age 12 when they join us in the morning worship service. These bags encourage our little ones to be active listeners.
  • Church Notes pages are available for older children or teens to complete during the service. These are great conversation starters for families after the service.
  • Our service is televised live in the lobby and classrooms for parents who need to step out temporarily with their children.




Generations Teens


Our teens are a vital part of ministry at Generations.  Each one is encouraged to use their gifts to serve the church in meaningful ways. Worship, media, ushering and prayer are some of the opportunities for our teens and young adults to explore who they are and where they belong in the body of Christ. 


Our goal is to teach them what it means to be a vital part of the body of Christ and to facilitate relationships between all ages in the church. We believe that this helps them to develop a faith that lasts. 


The Walk Ministry


Teens age 15 and up are invited to join our young adults in the Walk Ministry, a small group for ages 15 to 25. This group focuses on supporting each other as they walk out the Christian life, not just at church, but in our families and community.  See Margo Rothe for information about meeting times and activities.
