Our Savior’s Children’s Ministry

Kids ministry is about raising up kids and families who know that they are God’s beloved children and important parts of God’s kingdom – and are so excited and want to share that good news with everyone they meet! Our Savior and our Children’s Ministry department are excited to be a part of that journey for each family that walks through our doors and joins us online. We recognize that parents are the primary faith-formers in a child’s life and work to partner with parents in this. We are committed to supporting and caring for families by providing resources, communities, and age-appropriate Bible teaching.

Our mission is to connect children with each other, their families, other Christians, and (most importantly) God as they experience the love of Jesus, grow in their faith, serve others, share the Gospel, and live life together. We offer children’s care, programs, and resources for infants through 6th grade.

We invite you to join us and hope you and your child(ren) will experience God’s love for you through the warmth, love and encouragement that your family will find here at Our Savior!

Sunday Mornings

During services (8am and 10:45am): Nursery available for infants through preschoolers during the worship services. You can also use our Family Foundations (Cry Room) if you’d like your child(ren) to be a part of the service, but they still need a little space to get some wiggles and noise out. Kids bulletins are also available on tables near the entrances as a way to help engage them with coloring and activities related to the message for the day.

During Bible Study Hour (9:30-10:30am): Nursery is available for infants. Sunday School is available for preschool – 6th grade. Currently, Sunday School is divided into two classes: preschool – kindergarten and 1st – 6th grades.

Sunday School

Kingdom Kids Sunday School

 

This year in our Kingdom Kids Sunday, we’re having a blast going through the Simply Loved and Ministry to Preteens curriculum from Group Publishing. Every Sunday, kids will experience God’s greatest gift and learn how much he loves them through fun activities, interactive Bible discoveries, and awesome music – and bring home a take home flyer to help keep the conversations going at home throughout the week!

Currently, we have three classes meeting:
Preschool – Kindergarten,  1st – 3rd grades and 4th-5th grades.

Come be a part of Kingdom Kids Sunday School from 9:30-10:30am every Sunday, and bring your friends along for the adventure!

 

Kingdom Care Nursery Ministry

Our nursery ministry is currently offered for children ages 6 months – 3 years on Sunday mornings during our 8am Traditional Service, 9:30am Bible Study Hour, and 10:45am Contemporary Service.

When you check in your child, you will be given a unique code tag and a matching coded name tag for your child. The only person who may pick up your child is the person who holds this unique code tag.

All of our volunteers have a background check and are CPR certified. You can participate in the service or Bible study assured that your child is having fun in a safe environment. If your child should need you, we will call you with the number you provided at registration.  For more info, please contact Matt Fischer, Director of Family Life Ministries, at matt.fischer@oslcnashville.org.
