KIDS MINISTRY

For infants to 5th grade

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for

the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” Mark 10:14

Our Priority

Our priority for children is to provide the opportunity to grow closer to Jesus in a loving, safe and secure environment. Children are valued as active and vital participants in the life of our church family. The programs we offer are created to make a lasting impact in their day-to-day lives, even from a child’s earliest years.

Mixing LTUMC Kids playfulness with Student Ministry intentional conversations!

If you prefer your kids stay in "big" Worship with you, we offer a couple of options…

—WORSHIP BOXES Located in the foyer, featuring paper, crayons, and fidget busters to keep little hands occupied. Please return at the end of Worship for other children to use.

—PRAY-GROUND This space in the front of the Sanctuary is intended especially for families with infants and toddlers, recognizing that small kids are often more engaged when they can see what’s going on. Small tables and chairs, baby swings and seats, and soft toys help keep our smallest community members occupied.

Hyfi digital curriculum flips the script on traditional ministry to give us effective tools and strategies to reach the next generations for Christ.

This media-rich resource teaches the truths of Scripture in a way that helps preschoolers, kids, and students understand their true identity in Christ via high-quality media, games, and side-by-side learning to foster a fun atmosphere of learning and belonging. Hyfi is tons of fun while remaining faithful to the Bible.
