KIDS MINISTRY

Rooted Kids

Birth – Grade 5. A safe, fun environment where kids learn about a God who loves them.

WHO WE ARE

A safe place to grow in faith.

At Rooted Kids, children have a place where they can make the decision to have a real relationship with Jesus and grow in their faith. They have a fun time learning about God with music, games, dynamic teaching, and small groups designed just for them.

We can’t wait to meet you! When you get to church, look for the Kids Check-In area. A staff member or volunteer will help you get checked in and find the right room for your child.

Arrive 15 minutes early so you can drop off your kids and head into the service without missing anything.

Our Goal

To inspire, encourage, and equip you as a parent to be the spiritual leader in your child's life. We "think orange" — combining the light of the Church (yellow) with the love of the family (red).

Safety First

Every volunteer is background-checked and trained. Each family receives a random alphanumeric code to pick up their child after service.

AGE ENVIRONMENTS

A room designed for them.

Every age has its own space, its own leaders, and its own way of discovering who God is.

Nursery

12 weeks – 24 months. A safe, comfortable space for our littlest ones, with consistent team leaders and age-appropriate play.

Preschool

2 – 5 years. Purposeful play, Bible story time, crafts, worship, and prayer — building on the truths: God made me, God loves me, Jesus wants to be my friend forever.

Elementary

Kindergarten – Grade 3. Small group leaders, worship, skits, and Bible stories that connect to real life — helping kids make the wise choice, trust God, and treat others well.

Pre-Teen

Grades 4 – 5. A focused room for preteens — with small group leaders, games, Bible stories that apply to their lives, and prayer together. Helps transition from elementary to middle school.

SAFETY & SECURITY

Your kids are in safe hands.

All Kids volunteers and staff are background-checked and trained before they start serving — so you can worship knowing your kids are cared for.

KIDS CARE

Inclusive for all abilities.

Kids and Student Care supports ages birth through grade 12 with disabilities and additional needs so they can attend church and know Jesus!

We provide caring, trained volunteers who serve alongside your kid or student. They get to know their unique strengths, giftings, and needs — helping to make their time at church a success.

If you feel your child would benefit from additional support, reach out to us at info@dcngongrd.org before your visit.

One-on-One Buddies

Background-checked volunteers designated and trained to partner with kids one-on-one — helping them participate as much as possible in their environment.

Sensory Room

A quiet, calming space with lighting, activities, and seating that helps kids with disabilities feel secure. Our buddies are in and out of this room on most Sundays.

PARENT / CHILD DEDICATION

Dedicate your Children to The LORD.

Parent/Child Dedication is a time of public and personal commitment, where parents make a promise to teach their kids about building a relationship with Jesus Christ.

To dedicate your child, we ask that you first attend our Baby Dedication Class. This helps parents understand why we dedicate our children and how to posture themselves as they raise them.

Ready to Dedicate?

Reach out to our team on WhatsApp and we'll send you everything you need — including the class schedule and application form.

SERVE WITH US

Kids can own their faith.

The Rooted Kids team is all about helping kids develop a resilient faith of their own. We support parents and families on Sunday mornings — and as kids grow, so do their opportunities to serve.

Students in Grades 6–12 are also encouraged to serve alongside adults on the team.

Background check required for all roles.

Join the Team

Whether you serve once a month or every week, there's a place for you on the Rooted Kids team.

I Want to Serve

Bring your kids this Sunday.

They’ll have their own space, their own leaders, and their own community.
