At Calvary Baptist Church our kids (infant through 6th grade) experience safe, age-appropriate environments where they learn about Jesus in a creative and relevant way.

We believe kids can learn from God's Word and grow in Christ, and at CBC Kids, we make this a priority. Children have the opportunity to grow in Christ on Sunday mornings as they learn from God's Word in Sunday school beginning at 9:30 am. We use Lifeway's Bible Studies for Life curriculum. During the worship service at 10:45 am, children have an exciting Kids Worship time. On the first Sunday of every month children join their parents in the sanctuary to worship together on Communion Sunday.

We would love to see you and your family visit CBC Kids.

Here's what to expect when visiting CBC Kids for the first time:

First, find the area marked for first-time families. There we will meet your family, check your child into our system, and then one of our volunteers will lead your child to their age-appropriate room.

Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following personal information (NOTE: We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone):

• Parent/guardian name(s)
• Child's name
• Child's birthdate
• Email address
• Home address
• Phone number
• Any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for your children

Before Service: You can check-in your child at the KidCheck station located in the CBC KIDS room. Once you check-in your child using the online check-in program, KidCheck, matching name tags that are exclusive to your family and your visit, will be printed for you. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion while you hold on to the matching tag.

After Service: After the service is complete, you will return to your child’s room and show your tag in order for your child to be released back to you.

During Service: In the event that we need to contact you during the service, you will receive a text notifying you. We ask that you exit the sanctuary immediately and look for a staff member or volunteer who will direct you to your child’s room.

We have Kids Ministry on Wednesday nights, 6:30 - 7:30 pm. This ministry is for children 3 years old (fully potty trained) through High School. Kids will enjoy Biblical teaching on Missions, verse memorization, music, games, and activities. During the months of March through May 2024, children will learn the Books of the Bible. Each week kids will learn about a few books of the Bible along with some simple hand motions to help them remember what each book is about. The goal is that by the end of the 12 weeks, kids will be able to say all 66 books of the Bible from memory and have a general idea of what each book is about.
