Section Title
Children's Ministry
We value the faith and spiritual growth of young children and families. Children are welcome to stay during our worship service or in our Children's Church, where dedicated volunteers provide a safe and spiritually nurturing environment.
Frequently Asked Questions About Children's Church
We offer a cheerful welcome to every family upon arrival, with our friendly Children’s Ministry team ready to assist. Each drop-off includes personalized attention from both our lead teacher and helper to ease transitions. All of our dedicated staff and volunteers are fingerprinted, background-checked, and trained—giving you full assurance of safety and care.
At the end of the service, children stay engaged in Children’s Church with their teachers until their family arrives. We’ll share a brief, positive check-in about your child’s morning and send them off with a warm blessing for the week ahead. Finally, once all children have gone home, our team thoroughly cleans and sanitizes the room and materials.
Your child’s faith journey is at the heart of everything we do.
Each Sunday, we offer a nurturing rhythm of worship, faith, and play designed just for little hearts and growing minds:
Scripture-Rooted Lessons – Every lesson is intentionally aligned with the scripture reading for that Sunday, helping children connect church teaching with real life.
Engaging Rhythm – Our time together flows through heartfelt worship songs, a Bible reading, playful learning moments, and concludes with prayer.
Age-Appropriate and Inclusive – From toddlers to elementary-aged children, all our lessons are thoughtfully crafted to be developmentally engaging and meaningful for each age group.
Caring, Confident Leaders – Behind every lesson is a team of trained teachers and helpers who collaborate closely, ensuring a safe, joyful, and seamless experience for your child.
We joyfully welcome every child and family to our ministry—a place that prioritizes the safety of body, heart, and spirit, and wraps each person in hospitality, trust, and delight!
Your child’s health and safety are our highest priority. Please help us maintain a safe and nurturing environment by keeping your child at home if they show any cold or flu symptoms:
Fever (within the last 24 hours)
Runny nose
Persistent cough
Sore throat
Rash (if unexplained or possibly contagious)
Symptoms of common childhood illnesses (e.g. chicken pox, hand, foot, and mouth disease)
If your child develops symptoms while in our care, we’ll contact you immediately for pick‑up. This precaution helps protect all children and allows our volunteers to maintain a healthy ministry atmosphere. We genuinely appreciate your cooperation—and your child’s quick return when fully recovered! Thank you for partnering with us to keep everyone well (:
Sunday Service: What to Expect
River Rock church is affiliated with the Christian Reformed Church in North America, grounded in the theological heritage of the Protestant Reformation. Although River Rock is relatively new, its beliefs and practices are well-established. We embrace the historic Christian faith expressed in the ecumenical creeds of the universal church: the Apostles Creed and the Nicene Creed. Our church has a distinctly Reformed Accent and holds to three confessions: the Belgic Confession, the Canons of Dort, and the Heidelberg Catechism.
