CHILDREN'S MINISTRY

AWANA (Approved workmen are not ashamed)

AWANA club is part of an international, non-denominational Bible-centered organization providing weekly clubs and programs for children three years old through 6th grade. This vibrant and exciting ministry provides the opportunity for boys and girls to memorize scripture, develop their faith, and enjoy the friendship of their peers. Divided into three segments, handbook time, counsel time, and power-packed game time, your child will be thrilled and challenged week after week.

Sunday Mornings- 8:30-9:45 am & 10:30-11:45 am in the Activity Center

Because children matter to God and because the next generation is important to us at Hillcrest, we give a lot of attention to our children's ministries. We believe there is no greater need than to touch the lives of our young people with the truths of God's Word at an early age. In our Quest Sunday School program, your child will learn the Word of God, worship in song and grow spiritually strong in an interactive learning environment.

3 years (by June 1st of that year) through Kindergarten: Current curriculum 9/07- In the Beginning
1st-4th Grade: Current curriculum 9/07- Gospel Light's Fruit of the Spirit

This ministry is led and taught by gifted and dedicated teachers who truly love children and care about their future.

Nursery

Available during both Sunday morning services.

"You saw me before I was born and scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe. Every day was recorded in Your Book! How precious it is, Lord, to realize that You are thinking about me constantly! I can't count how many times a day Your thoughts turn towards me." - Psalm 139:16, 17

The Bible teaches us that children are a special gift from God, and at Hillcrest we treat every child as God's special creation. Our nursery ministry is made available to serve you and your child(ren) while you worship and study God's Word with the Hillcrest Family. Your nursery staff seeks to always provide a responsible atmosphere promoting the health and safety of your little ones, as well as nurturing their love for the Lord. We seek to continually reflect God's love to all the children who enter our nursery.

Our nursery is equipped to provide responsible care for infants, crawlers, and walkers up to three years old.
