Welcome to Grace Kids!
What to expect
We are ready and excited to safely welcome you in-person! When you are planning to attend, here are some helpful steps to take:
- Arrive 15 minutes before the gathering to allow plenty of time to park and check-in your children.
- If you only have PreK and younger children, park in the EAST parking lot (turn left into the parking lot as you come down the hill).
- If you only have Kindergarten and older children, park in the WEST parking lot (turn right and drive to the other side of the building).
- When inside our building, proceed to the Grace Kids Welcome desk where a team member will assist you in checking-in your children.

Partnering with Parents
Grace Kids is committed to building a robust partnership between church and home. This partnership affirms that parents by proximity, opportunity and God’s design, bear a unique responsibility for nurturing their children’s faith. The church plays a critical role in providing encouragement and training for parents, as well as the formal instruction for the children.
Parent and Child Dedication
We value this opportunity to partner with you in the discipleship of your child. When we receive a child from God, it is right that we recognize that child as dedicated to God for His glory.
The Parent and Child Dedication Milestone provides you with the opportunity to learn, prepare and commit to a lifelong journey of discipling your child. During the Parent and Child Dedication Ceremony, you will make a commitment before the Lord and the Body of Christ at Grace to raise your child according to God’s Word and God’s ways.
Please email gracefamilies@grace.community for any questions.
Want to dedicate your child? The next Parent and Child Dedication is on Aug. 18, 2024.
Contact gracefamilies@grace.community for more information.
