Life Kids

Helping families lay a spiritual foundation that lasts a lifetime.

Our Mission

Every Child Matters

Our Life Kids ministry exists to team up with parents to lead children into an authentic, life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. At Christian Life Assembly, our kids (infant–6th grade) experience safe, age-appropriate environments where they learn about Jesus in a creative and relevant way. We would love to see you and your family!

Nursery

We believe in ministering to the needs of every age group, including our littlest members. When you arrive, you will sign your kids in. While you enjoy the adult service, you can rest assured that your babies are receiving personal care in a safe and nurturing environment. Our qualified volunteers create a positive church experience that introduces infants and toddlers to a love for Jesus early in life.

Ages 3–5

Preschool

Preschoolers love to learn, which is why our preschool classroom provides interactive learning experiences that help your kids fall in love with the Bible. We use colorful illustrations, interactive lessons and activities to help kids remember what they learn. When you arrive, you will check your child in to our computer system with one of our Life Kids volunteers.

Kids Church

Kids Church combines high energy activities with Bible-based teachings for our boys and girls. Using both large and small groups, kids are able to connect with friends and engage with leaders, all in a life-giving atmosphere. With a combination of games, attention-grabbing Bible lessons and fun-filled songs, Kids Church shows that living for God is the best thing out there!

Safety First

How Check-In Works

At CLA, we place a priority on your child's safety and security. Each time your Preschool and/or Kids Church aged child attends, they will need to be checked in.

First Visit

What We'll Need

Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following personal information. We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone.

👤

Parent/guardian name(s)

👶

Child's name, birth date & grade

📞

Phone number & home address

📋

Special instructions (allergies, special needs)

Once your information is in the system, check-in is a quick, one-step process. You and your child will be given matching name tags that are exclusive to your family and your visit. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion while you hold on to the matching tag.

After Service — You will return to your child's room and show your tag in order for your child to be released back to you.
