Children’s Ministry

"Jesus said to them, "Whoever welcomes this child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me; for the least among all of you is the greatest.'" Luke 9:46

Children Ages 3 up to 6th Grade

We believe that children naturally love and worship God. Our desire at Longview Chapel is to gently guide children into a deeper understanding of that love and allow the power of that relationship to enrich each child so he or she will feel secure and whole. We introduce children to the sacred stories from our Bibles every week and allow them to respond to those stories with questions and insights which make each story personal for their lives. 

We do this in a safe place with the Children’s Moment, which occurs during a portion of the whole church worship at the 9:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. services. This is followed by a learning session just for children. Our desire is to help children learn the flow and rhythm of the worship service with the expectation that they will be enriched and fulfilled in worship and will forever desire to be a part of a meaningful, worshipping faith community.
