ILC Kids

Sundays

A time for kids to sing, create, move, and explore God’s Word! We welcome children aged 3 (by September each year) through Grade 5 to join us on Sundays for age-appropriate ways to connect, grow, and learn about God’s love. We meet Sunday Mornings during the 9 AM worship, September – April. Register Here!

Wednesdays

On Wednesdays, we hear the same story as Sunday mornings, but in a different way and with different activities. It is designed so that kids can come on both Wednesday and Sunday, or one or the other. Whatever works best for you and your family. We meet Wednesdays 6 PM to 7:15 PM, September to April. No registration needed.

Family Funday Sunday

Once a month, we encourage families to worship together. These services are designed with kids in mind and give opportunities for people of all ages to lead, engage, and experience worship together.

Milestones

Bible Blessing

As children grow and become independent readers (in Grades 3-5), they need a Bible that fits their reading level. The Upper Elementary Bible Blessing involves participating in a workshop, then a blessing and celebration of the children during worship.

First Communion

First Communion instruction is provided as an opportunity for children to learn more about Holy Communion and prepare them to receive it. We invite all kids who, along with their parents, are ready to learn more about this special Sacrament to a workshop. Then their First Communion is celebrated during our Maundy Thursday worship.
