Kids Ministries

Partnering with families to raise kids who love Jesus.

At Bethany Christian Church, we believe church should be the highlight of your child’s week! We provide safe, fun, and intentional environments where kids can make friends, have fun, and learn about God on their own level.

Our Safety Promise

Your child’s safety is our highest priority. Apart from guided parent or guardian tours, only approved, fully background-checked volunteers are allowed in our children’s ministry areas.

First time visiting? We can’t wait to meet you! Please plan to arrive about 10 minutes early so our team can help you get checked in safely at the BCC Kids Check-In station and personally walk your family to the right classrooms.

Sunday Morning Lineup

Our environments are tailored specifically to your child’s developmental stage. You can check your kids into these age-specific groups during either of our service times:

  • Nursery (Newborn – 18 months): Located right next to the main Kids Check-In station.

  • Toddler & Preschool (18 months – 4 years): Located on the lower level of the Children’s area.

  • Pre-K & Kindergarten: Located in the Early Elementary area (lower level).

  • Discovery Zone Kids’ Worship (1st – 6th Grade): An energetic worship experience located upstairs.
