Youth & Children at CTK
We love youth and children of all ages, and we are passionate about seeing them grow in their faith.
-
We believe that one of the best ways for children to learn how to love and worship Jesus is by worshiping together with their families, and learning by observing. So we do not have a children's church during the worship service. We encourage children to sit with their families during worship. If they cry, wiggle, color, or whisper, that's totally fine! Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me!" And we are happy to have them come! If they find it hard to follow what is going on, try sitting closer to the front so they can see better!

Yes! We do offer a nursery during the worship service for the littlest ones, age three and under. The nursery is staffed by volunteers who have been approved by the leadership and submitted to a background check.
-
Yes! We have Sunday School classes for all ages. The classes meet after worship, from 10:45-11:30.
-
Yes! We do have a youth group for students in 6th-12th grades. They meet for Bible Study during the Sunday School hour on Sunday mornings, and they meet for youth group on Sunday evenings from 4:30-6:30.

The goal of the youth ministries at CTK is to come alongside parents to help with the discipleship of their children. The youth group studies the Bible together to see how the entire story of redemption centers of Jesus, but they also have a lot of fun, play a lot of games, and share meals together.

Yes, we do! Thank you for asking! We have a rigorous Youth Protection Policy for the safety of our children, our volunteers, and our staff members. Anyone who works with youth in any way at CTK has signed the policy and has submitted to a background check. Please feel free to request a copy of the policy if you have any questions.
"God in Christ has reconciled us to himself, is renewing our minds, and promises to raise us from the dead,
and we will dwell in righteousness and peace forever. If you have this, what more do you need?"
