Leading kids and families to be passionate followers of Jesus.
Immanuel Kids meets during our 10:00am service, as is for kids age 3 to Grade 5. Located upstairs at the east end the building.
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.
Our Mission
“We exist to lead kids and families to be passionate followers of Jesus.”
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.
“Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.” (Psalm 127:3)
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.
Our Vision
“To be a thriving ministry, that cares for and equips parents to be their children’s primary spiritual leader, resulting in the evangelism and discipleship of school-aged families.”
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.
“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.” (Deuteronomy 6:4-9 NIV)
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.“He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children, so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.” (Psalm 76:5-7 NIV)
Nursery
The nursery provides a safe and fun environment for your littlest ones to enjoy, and experience the love of Jesus while you participate in our worship service. Our Nursery is currently available during our 10:00am service, located on the main floor near the Main Auditorium.
Parents Room
A place to experience church, while staying with your little one. Connected to our Nursery, and right next to the Main Auditorium, we have a dedicated space for parents to be with their child. This is also a great place for nursing mothers and bottle-feeding parents to hear the worship service and sermon in a quieter, calmer environment.

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.
