Cross Creek Kids

We are grateful that God has led your family to Cross Creek Church. It is our joy to partner with parents as they disciple their children to know, love, and follow Jesus Christ.

Through gospel-centered teaching in Sunday School, Children’s Church, and Wednesday night Kids’ Club, as well as fun, meaningful events throughout the year, we seek to help children build a strong foundation of faith and experience the love of Christ in a safe, welcoming environment.

We believe parents are the primary spiritual influence in a child’s life, and we are committed to coming alongside your family as you raise children who grow in their relationship with Jesus and live out their faith each day.

Cross Creek Kids Events

Throughout the year, Cross Creek Church hosts special events designed to build community, foster fellowship, and help children grow in their faith. Each summer, our Kids Camp provides an exciting opportunity for outreach and spiritual growth. In January, we dedicate an entire month to celebrating and supporting missions. On Easter, Christmas, and other special occasions, we offer engaging events and performances that make these seasons meaningful and joyful for families.

These gatherings reflect our heart as a church—to create spaces where children and families can connect, grow, and experience the love of Christ together.

Worship Service/Sermon

Children of all ages are welcome in the worship service at Cross Creek Church. Corporate worship is foundational and taught in both the Old and New Testament. We believe it is a privilege as well as an act of obedience of children of God to participate. With that said, we recognize that very young children often have trouble engaging in worship and may hinder parents ability to worship. We provide a wonderful Nursery and Children’s Church (K4-2nd) option to help meet those needs.

We do have some suggestions to help your children engage during our worship service. Encourage children to sing along with the worship music, bow their heads during prayer, and listen and use our kids’ worship binders to help focus. We encourage parents to follow up with their children after the service to review with them the things they read, heard, wrote, or drew on their worship sheet.

Spiritual Growth at Home

At Cross Creek Church we are committed to promoting spiritual growth in children through all of our ministries. However, we believe that the primary spiritual nurturers of our children are believing parents. As parents we have the humbling privilege of living the gospel in front of our children every day. We are commanded in scripture to train our children in the fear and admonition of the Lord (Deut. 6:1-9). As God spoke through Moses, parents should talk about God’s word with their children all day long in thought and action. This can only happen by God’s grace and reliance on Him for wisdom and guidance. We encourage parents to have family devotions and time that they read God’s word and pray together as a family. We also encourage teaching your child to have their own individual times of prayer and Bible reading.

As parents we should model a life of prayer before our children and talk to them about all the things that God has done in our lives. Through all this, children will gain a deeper sense of God’s presence and active participation in their everyday lives.
