Children’s Ministry
At Christ Church, we believe that helping children and youth grow in faith is one of the most important things we do. Faith begins at home, and we’re here to walk alongside families as they grow together in God’s love.
Our programs create space for kids, teens, and families to learn, serve, and connect — deepening their faith, building community, and making a difference in the world. Whether through worship, Sunday and weekday gatherings, youth groups, choirs, outreach projects, or fun social events, there’s a place for everyone to belong and grow.

Our Family Ministries thrive because of our amazing volunteers. If you’d like to be part of shaping the faith journey of our young people, we’d love to have you join us. Reach out to a member of our Family Ministries team to learn how you can get involved!

Family Worship
Sundays at 10:00 AM | Church Building
Worship at Christ Church is wiggle-friendly! Families are always welcome to worship together during Sunday Mass. Children’s worship materials are available in the first pew to help engage young hearts and minds.
Children’s Formation
Sundays at 10:00 AM | Claire’s Cottage
Join us Sunday mornings as we explore faith through story, wonder, and play! In today’s busy world, we meet children where they are with a creative, hands-on approach to spiritual learning.
Children begin in church and are dismissed after the opening to hear a story and reflect together, returning for communion. Stay afterward in the courtyard for refreshments and fellowship.
Children’s Bulletins, Welcome Bags, and the Playground are available at all services.
Kindergarten – 6th Grade
middle and high school students
Youth Group
Join us Sundays in our brand-new Youth Lounge (Clare’s Cottage)! Together we’ll dive into the week’s Gospel reading, share snacks and sodas, pray, and enjoy time in fellowship.
Looking for a place to connect, grow, and have fun with friends? Our Youth Group is a welcoming space for middle and high school students to explore faith, ask big questions, and make lasting memories.

Ways to Serve Christ Chruch
READERS
All children and youth can be readers during the 10:00 service. This is a great way to connect to scripture while serving at CC! Every second Sunday of the month are children and youth reader Sundays. The first and second readings are available to be read each month. Children and youth can sign up for one or both readings HERE! An email the week of the reading will be sent out to facilitate practice, and Leighton is available before the service to help prepare.
ACOLYTES
All children and youth are welcome to become acolytes! Please respond to this email or email the new Acolyte Lead, Dewitt Jones at wittjones@gmail.com to find out more!
