Immanuel Kids currently meets during our 10:00am service for kids age 3 to Grade 5. Kids learn about Jesus in interactive, fun, and age-appropriate ways using a Bible-based curriculum called The Gospel Project. Kids will take a 3 year journey through the entire Bible as one big story, learning how it all points to Jesus!
Parents are also welcome to have their children with them in the worship service.
We believe that God is honoured when kids created in His image are treated with honour and love for the sake of Christ. We affirm that children are a gift from God. They are freely given as a sign of His blessing.
It is our hope and our prayer that our church will always welcome kids, teach and minister to kids, and love kids because God loves them and wants them to be saved.
We believe it is our calling to encourage, support, and supplement the teaching and discipleship that is happening in the home. The Bible teaches that the parent is the primary spiritual leader, and lays the responsibility for teaching children on their parents.
This Biblical responsibility given to parents should not be ignored or abdicated, resulting in the church being a surrogate parent. Church programs for children and youth can reinforce what parents are teaching, but not replace it. They should not be the primary method for the discipleship of children.
We use a safe and effective check-in system to ensure that each parent and child has the best experience possible. Simply provide us a few contact details, and we'll sign your child into the appropriate classroom, and give you a personalized security code that corresponds to your child's name tag.
If your child is in need of you during the service, a notice with your child's secure code will be placed on the front screens in the main auditorium. As you arrive upstairs to see your child, one of our Immanuel Kids leaders will be on hand to meet you.
He married the love of his life, Bethany. Together they have three children. Mikey is passionate about teaching the Word of God to kids, and equipping and encouraging parents and volunteers to do the same. In his free time you might find him swimming at the lake or fishing in the river.
