Who Are We?
Gayton Kids is a ministry for children from birth through 5th grade and their families to help children grow in their relationship with God by inciting wonder, provoking discovery, and by fueling passion. We seek share and teach timeless Biblical truths while considering the needs of every child. We would love to welcome your family to be a part of Gayton Kids!
Sunday Mornings
Our greeting team at the front door can help you find our Nursery Care, Preschool Church, and Elementary Kids Worship rooms, all of which are located in our upstairs Education Wing.
We offer programming during both the 10 AM Worship Hour and the 11 AM Bible Study Hour. Preschoolers and Elementary Schoolers hav a special time to visit our indoor play structure, the Treehouse, during the 11 AM hour.
Upon your family's first visit, we ask you to complete a registration form that provides some basic contact info for us to have on hand in the event of an emergency.

Sunday Morning Nursery
Our nursery is a special place for infants and toddlers, from birth to 3 years, to play and be cared for by our loving volunteers.
Sunday Morning Preschool Church
On Sunday mornings, our Preschool Church volunteers lead children ages 3 to PreK in understanding that God made them, God loves them, and Jesus wants to be their friend forever. These 3 "big ideas," as well as age-appropriate weekly Bible points, are reinforced in pre- and post- worship small group activities, including a monthly Bible memory verse complete with motions that help make it "stick" for our youngest diesciples.
Sunday Morning Elementary Kids Worship
On Sunday mornings, elementary-aged kids engage in a fun, compelling worship service designed just for them. In Elementary Kids Worship , we seek to engage elementary schoolers to grow up understanding that they can make wiser choices, build stronger relationships, and develop a deeper authentic faith. We weave worship music, Bible stories, small group activities, video experiences and more to reinforce one clear and simple bottom line each week, so kids can walk away and remember what matters most.
Weekly Virtual Kids Ministry
Miss a Sunday morning? Want to revisit a previous message? Curious about what your child is learning? Our Gayton Kids Facebook Group offers two weekly worship experiences (one for preschoolers and one for elementary schoolers) that include worship songs, Bible stories, videos and lots of fun!
