Children's Ministry

The Vision of Children’s Ministry at Hope NorthBranch is:
To provide a safe and engaging environment for children to build their faith foundation and continue to grow in their love for Jesus Christ.

Nursery
Age 3 and Under: Quality childcare is provided during all weekend worship services. The nursery is staffed by trained and caring volunteers and is located in the East Gymnasium.

Roots
Age 3 - Grade 6: ROOTS seeks to draw children of all ages into an ongoing relationship with Jesus and nurture that relationship through drama, music, story telling, crafts and other fun activities that reinforce the lesson. Children are encouraged to bring friends! To register for ROOTS, come to the Youth Booth in the East Gymnasium.

Yes, Roots will continue through the summer for preschool – 4th grade! However, the format will look different. Please take some time to read over the following schedule and explanation. We’ll look forward to helping your children grow their faith foundation this summer!

Beginning June 1st, parents will sign in their children at tables between the East and Main Gyms. After signing children in, families will head into worship. Following announcements and the worship set, children will be invited up front for a children’s sermon. If you child has offering for Roots it would be a good idea to send it with them at this time.

When the children’s sermon ends, all children signed in will follow shepherds out of the worship area and into the Main Gym. We’ll have a blast singing, participating in activities and learning more about God. You’ll be able to pick up your children when the service ends.

5th-6th graders are invited to volunteer by leading/assisting with: activities, Roots worship time and/or children’s sermons.
