Encounter Kids

A safe, fun, and engaging place for children to grow spiritually and make friends! At Encounter Church each Sunday our goal is that our children leave knowing that God loves them, we believe in them, and that church is fun! Families are a big priority around here, so we partner up with parents to help develop and teach their children to be disciples of Jesus, leaders, and world changers.

Families are a big priority around here.

Your First Visit

From the moment you walk onto our campus, you’ll notice lots of friendly faces eager to show you the way.

1) Check-In

Your first stop when you arrive is the first-time check-in area. We want to serve you and your child well, so we’ll take some time to get to know you. We’ll ask about allergies, make sure we know what your child likes to be called, and collect your contact information.

2) Security

Then, you and your child will both get a sticker with a matching code. If for any reason we need to reach you during the gathering, you’ll receive a text message to your phone. This sticker is also what you’ll use to pick-up your child after gathering.

6 Months – 1 Year

Dreamers

Scope and Sequence: We call our infants and 1 year olds our Dreamers, because they’ve just entered the world. They’re growing and learning what it’s all about! Your child will experience God’s love through the care of our trained Encounter Team. Each week in this class, they will be prayed over, shown God’s love through play and songs, and often enjoy a nice nap.

2 and 3 Year Olds

Explorers

Scope and Sequence: We call our 2 and 3 year olds our Explorers, because these toddlers love to explore God’s creation! From climbing to dancing and everything in between, your child will have a blast exploring God’s love through hands on experiences designed just for them.

Preschool and Kindergarten

Heroes

Scope and Sequence: Our preschool and kindergarten kids love learning that they’re part of God’s Big Story, the Bible! Each week in this class, our Heroes hear a story from God’s Word and learn how to apply God’s Word in their own lives. Worship, play, and crafts are all big parts of what our Heroes do every Sunday in Radiant Kids!

1st through 6th Grades

Legends

Scope and Sequence: First through fifth grade students are learning who they are in Christ through the calling He has on their life. We want our elementary aged kids to know they have the opportunity to be a Legend—to go stand out for being a bold follower of Jesus! Every Sunday in this class, our Legends experience their very own worship service with engaging music, games, Bible lessons, small groups, and a practical application that they can use to impact the world around them.
