Welcome to Reach Kids!

All parents must check in their child using the computer system at the check-in desk. Your child’s name tag will tell you which classroom they are assigned to. Please check with a team member at the desk if you feel there is an error in the room assignment.

Our classes are open every Sunday 15 minutes prior to our 9:30 & 11:00 am services and special events as announced. Children are assigned to a classroom based on their date of birth (and/or physical development for infants). The  assigned room number will appear on the child’s name tag.

Next Gen Markers

Our Next Gen Markers create a clear, intentional pathway of discipleship from birth through college as we partner with parents to raise the next generation. Each marker represents a meaningful spiritual milestone, a moment to pause, celebrate growth, and call kids and students to take their next faithful step. Rather than leaving spiritual development to chance, these markers provide structure, clarity, and shared language for families and the church to walk together. From early childhood through young adulthood, we are committed to forming resilient disciples who know Christ, love His Church, and are prepared to lead and serve wherever God calls them.

Early Childhood Ministry

(Birth – Pre-K)

At Reach, our Early Childhood classrooms provide a safe, loving, and fun environment where every child is introduced to Jesus in a way they can understand. We focus on three basic truths:

• God made me (Psalm 139:13–14)
• God loves me (John 3:16)
• Jesus wants to be my friend forever (John 15:15) 

Our curriculum is tailored to each developmental age and is Biblical, relational, and engaging.  We use music, crafts, stories, movement, and interactive play to reinforce the truth being taught. It is our desire that every child would find and follow Jesus. 

Elementary Ministry

(K-5th Grade)

At Reach Church, we love helping kids discover God’s Word and grow in their faith in Jesus! Our elementary ministry (Kindergarten through 5th grade) is designed to give children a strong biblical foundation in a fun, safe, and engaging environment.

• Sundays | 9:30 am – Walking Through the Bible
  During our 9:30 AM service, kids journey through the Bible chronologically over a 2.5-year period. By the time they finish 5th grade, they will have walked through the entire Bible two times helping them gain a clear understanding of how all of Scripture points to Jesus and how God’s Word applies to their everyday lives.

• Sundays | 11:00 am – Topical Bible Lessons
  During our 11:00 AM service, kids explore a completely different lesson each week that is more topical in nature. These lessons break down major themes that are relevant to kids today while introducing them to core biblical concepts like faith, prayer, forgiveness, serving, and God’s character.

Our goal is that every child leaves each Sunday not only knowing more about the Bible but also knowing more about Jesus, His love for them, and how to live out their faith.
