Nursery

Our Nursery is located in the Main sanctuary building downstairs.

We have a wonderful, newly renovated space for our babies and toddlers (up to age 3 and potty trained). Kids enjoy engaging play time, Bible story time, and snack time. Nursery is provided at both of our service times, 9am and 11:00am.

Check-in begins at 8:45am and 10:40am in the Main building (if you have kids in the older classes, you can check them all in at either of the check-in locations: in the nursery or in the Education building’s Connection Corner).

Preschool/Kindergarten

We have a wonderful team of Preschool/Kindergarten teachers ready to show your children the love of Jesus through playtime and through an engaging Bible storytime. This class meets in the Education building, Room 212, at both services.

Check-in begins at 8:45am and 10:40am in the Education building (please use the entrance with the ramp, and you’ll walk right into the check-in area, Connection Corner). Please tell our check-in greeter if your child(ren) will be staying for both services.

Elementary (1st-4th grades)

Our elementary class is for 1^st -4^th graders. We do both a large group teaching time and small groups. This age group meets in the Education building, Rooms 203/205, at both services.

Check-in begins at 8:45am and 10:40am in the Education building (please use the entrance with the ramp, and you’ll walk right into the check in area, Connection Corner). Please tell our check-in greeter if your child(ren) will be staying for both services.

56ers (5th & 6th grades)

Our 56ers (5^th and 6^th graders) have special classes, as they are the oldest kids in the MBC Kids program. The 56ers meet at 9am only, and there are two classes: 56ers boys meet in Room 213 and 56ers girls meet in Room 211.

Check-in begins at 8:45am in the Education building (please use the entrance with the ramp, and you’ll walk right into the check in area, Connection Corner). 56ers can sit with their families in the worship service if staying for both services, which is a great opportunity for kids to learn about worshiping God.

Special update: we are launching a new electronic check-in system this fall!
Parents will be able to check in all of their kids at any of the 4 stations: nursery, sanctuary foyer, and 2 stations in Connection Corner (Education building). Kids will receive a name tag, and parents will receive a tag with matching numbers. Parents must show their tag in order to pick up their kids.

Interested in serving with kids? We’re praying for the following roles to be filled: assistant teacher, check-in, and nursery. Contact Rachel Rickershauser for more information.
