BVCC Kids is our Sunday ministry for all kids up to grade 6.
Our mission and purpose is to help our kids find and follow Jesus. Our focus in accomplishing this is to work alongside and support parents in the journey toward faith that their kids are on. We want everything we do in our ministry to point them toward trusting in Jesus and taking their next step of belonging, growing, investing and shining as a child of God.
All classes meet in the lower level except for the Nursery which is located just off of the main foyer down the west hallway.
CURRICULUM
Our curriculum is called One Story. It teaches each Bible story within the context of the overarching Biblical narrative so that kids can see how it connects into God’s story. Each week includes a God Story (Bible Teaching), Life Story (Testimony), and My Story (Application activities that give kids the opportunity to process, engage with, & discuss the Big Idea and biblical themes introduced in the lesson).

What does a Sunday at BVCC Kids look like?
NURSERY
(BIRTH–23 MONTHS)
We have screened volunteer caregivers to give you peace of mind while you attend our service beginning at 11:00 AM on Sundays.
Not ready to separate from your little one? We have a great nursery space set up for families and parents to use. No need to miss what's happening in the service as it is being broadcast live into the nursery each Sunday.
TODDLERS AND PRESCHOOL
(AGE 2–5)
Programming is available beginning at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM for children aged 2 to 5 each Sunday. We have an age 2-3 class and a class for ages 4-5. Check-in and classes are located in the downstairs hallway.
ELEMENTARY
(GRADES 1–6)
Classes are available for kids in grades 1-6 for both services at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM services. Check-in will open 10 minutes prior to service time. Check-in and classes are located in the downstairs hallway.
Each Sunday, kids dive into small groups where they connect with friends and leaders before heading into a large group time filled with fun games, worship, engaging Bible teaching, and prayer. Afterward, they return to small groups to explore how the lesson applies to their lives, memorize scripture in creative ways, and support one another through prayer and conversation. There are separate small groups for grades 1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 (Club 56).
We would be very excited to have your kids come and join us on Sundays!
CHECK-IN
Before leaving your child in their class, please be sure to check them in at the kiosks located downstairs. There you will receive a numbered receipt along with a name tag for your child.
You will be the only one who will be able to pick up your child at the end of the service using the pickup card. Our Check-ins is are located in the hallway lobby on the lower level.
