On most Sundays, New City Kids offers classrooms for all ages—Nursery through 5th Grade—during the 9am and 11am Worship Gatherings.

See below for details on specific Sunday programs.

First Sundays

Missions Moment Sunday

Third Sundays

Every third Sunday of the month we intentionally bring our school-aged kids - Kindergarten through 5th Grade - into the main Worship Gathering. We value intergenerational community; this means we believe it benefits both our kids and adults of all ages and stages to worship alongside one another. Those extra noises we experiencing on third Sundays aren't distractions, they are the sound of the family of God.

Fourth Sundays

Every fourth Sunday, our kids worship together and celebrate scripture memory. Check out the Quick Links below for our worship playlist and upcoming scripture memory verses.

Fifth Sundays

On months with a fifth Sunday, we intentionally bring our school-aged kids—Kindergarten through 5th Grade—into the main Worship Gathering. We value intergenerational community, and we believe it benefits both our children and adults of every age and stage to worship alongside one another. Those extra noises we hear on these Sundays aren’t distractions; they are the sounds of the family of God.

Well Child Policy

For the protection of our children, families, volunteers, and teachers, please adhere to our well child policy when determining if you should bring your child to church.

Well Child Policy

Embracing Disabilities

It is our desire to enfold children and families with disabilities into our community and give every child the opportunity to learn, grow, have genuine fellowship, and participate in worship.

Safety

The staff and volunteers of New City Kids, together with our Security Team, work diligently to ensure that every child is kept safe as they play, learn, and worship.
