Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14
What to expect when You Visit with children.
Our services typically run about 45 minutes long, after a time of family worship. We’re casual and we don’t have any particular dress code so come as you are. You may see some dressed in their Sunday best and others in flip flops. We try to keep an environment where all newcomers feel welcomed, and staff and volunteers are real and approachable.
What about Babies?
If you have small children that will be cared for in our nursery, please come 10 minutes before the service to sign in your precious ones. Ask one of our friendly ushers to show you the location of our nursery. Please sign in and fill out a wrist band for your child. If you have a Diaper bag, please place a name tag on the bag. You may also give the CZ (Construction Zone) staff member your cell number to alert you if needed. If you need to have your baby in service, there are 2 recliners behind a partition in the back of the Sanctuary where you may nurse your child while hearing the service.
What about Children 4 years and up?
All Children are in service so you can worship as a family! We take a break after worship so you can escort your children to class in...The Construction Zone... Our Children’s Ministry. We have classes for kids from 4 through 12 grades with age-appropriate Bible lessons, crafts and snacks.
Each staff member will be wearing a name badge so parents will know the adult that is in their child’s class. The CZ Jr class is for kids 4 years through 1st grade.
You may sign in your child before service so the kids can start class promptly. Please potty kids BEFORE class! At the break, the kids may go straight to class. Please encourage them to get to class promptly! The CZ kids are encouraged to bring their own Bible and be prepared to get into God’s word through a Bible Study just for this age.
What about Teens?
We have a Jr High group and a High School group. These classes meet after main service worship. Please have the young people head to class promptly as they share a classroom entrance and late entry disturbs other classes. We encourage the young people to bring their own bibles and an attitude for digging in deep into God’s word. Jr. High classroom is within the Construction Zone area. The High School group meet in the Multi-purpose room in the back of the sanctuary
What about the mid-week Bible study?
At this time, Wednesday service kids’ group is for all ages. We have a Bible lesson, prayer journaling time, crafts and snacks. For any questions please email Mylissa at CZkidsrccc@gmail.com.
A note about Security...
Times have changed. We must be prepared for every possibility, So RCCC developed our Guardian Angel Ministry. There are men posted near the hallway leading to our nursery and children's classes throughout the service. Only teachers and parents are allowed past that point. as well as our lobby and parking lot. They have been highly vetted and are trained by local law enforcement to handle any security issues that could arise in a public venue such as a church.
