“Then He (Jesus) took the children in His arms and placed His hands on their heads and blessed them.”
Mark 10:16
At I Heart Church, we consider children’s ministry to be our greatest Kingdom priority.
We take the responsibility to steward your child’s first exposure to the Gospel of Jesus with great reverence. Jesus Himself said, “Let the little children come to me. Don’t stop them, because God’s kingdom belongs to people who are like these children.” Matthew 19:14
OUR GOAL IS
To stay creative and fun in our approach to teaching the Scriptures to children through proven models of immersive learning.
To provide a safe environment for your child to experience the love of God each week.
To come alongside you in discipling your child at home by offering free family Bible resources.
To do our best to accommodate your child’s cognitive growth and/or special needs.
We want you to feel comfortable with your child’s church experience and confident as you raise your child in God’s house. Parenting can be hard! Bringing kids to church doesn’t have to be. We are here to come alongside you as you raise (little) disciples of Jesus!
Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow builds her nest and raises her young at a place near Your altar, O LORD of Heaven's Armies, my King and my God!
Psalm 84:3

We understand that sometimes kids just need you—there’s no substitute for the comfort of a familiar caregiver! Upon check-in, your child will receive a tag with your contact information. In the event of an emergency or if they simply need you, we’ll use that information to reach you right away. While we want to give you the opportunity to enjoy the service, we also want you to have peace of mind knowing that if your child needs you, we’ll make sure you’re there for them.

We know that every child develops uniquely and at their own pace! We’ve created a “milestone guide” to help you decide which classroom is the best fit!

Your child’s safety is one of our highest priorities. Here's how we create a secure and welcoming environment:
Secure Check-In: When you check in, you'll receive matching identification stickers. Your child will wear a name tag, and you'll keep the matching tag, ensuring only you can pick them up.
Safe Pick-Up: To pick up your child after the service, simply show your matching tag to the LifeKids leader.
Trained Leaders: Every Iheart Kidz volunteer completes a background check and is trained by our staff to provide safe, high-quality care.
Monitored Hallways: Background-checked security personnel monitor the hallways during every service.
Parent Alerts: If we need to contact you, we’ll send a text or call you.

“We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord, about His power and His mighty wonders. So the next generation might know them— even the children not yet born— and they in turn will teach their own children.
