On your first visit, let our greeters at the front doors know it’s your first time with us and you want to know where the HL Kids Check-in area is and they will be happy to help you! 

At HL Kids Check-in, you’ll be welcomed by a HL Kids Superhero eager to meet your family. To check your child in, we’ll need some information at that time, including a family member’s name, your child’s name and birthday, your address, your phone number, and any special instructions. We’ll be there every step of the way, right up to when you drop your kids off at the appropriate room, so feel free to ask questions!

You are welcome to peek in the door and check how your child is doing. But in order to be in a classroom, we require our volunteers to have a background check and interview with us. The safety of your child is of the utmost importance to us. We are careful to only allow approved volunteers with the children. If you’d like to serve in a class we would love to have you as a volunteer!

Our team currently use Think Orange curriculum. This curriculum is designed to help children grow up making wiser choices, building stronger relationships, and developing a deeper faith.

They also have an app called Parent Cue designed to equip you with simple ways to make the most of the everyday moments you have with your kid—and hopefully, make the work of parenting just a little bit easier!

As you discern if your child is ready to be water baptized, here are some questions to ask them. If your child confidently answers these questions, they are likely ready to be baptized. Take a moment to offer a prayer of gratitude for their decision to accept Christ and to be baptized. If you don’t feel your child understands what it means to be baptized just yet, it’s perfectly acceptable to wait. Use this opportunity to let your child observe water baptisms and talk to them about what it means.

Questions to Ask Your Child:

• Who is Jesus?

• What has Jesus done for us?

• When did you decide to follow Jesus?

• What does it mean to be water baptized?

• Why do you want to be water baptized?

In HL Kids, safety is our highest priority. Upon check-in, you’ll receive matching alphanumeric stickers. Your child will need to wear their name tag sticker and you will need to keep the matching tag. You must present the Security Tag at the end of service to pick up your child. For the safety and security of the children in our care, no child will be released from the classroom without the correct Security Tag. If we need to reach you during the service, we will text the number you provide during check-in.

Every HL Kids Superhero is screened, participates in a background check, and receives appropriate training from our Leaders. Additionally, our hallways are monitored by background-checked security during each experience to make sure your child stays safe and secure. 

In the event that we need to contact you during the service, we can either send you a text message or display your alphanumeric code on the screen in the auditorium.

If you have a child with special needs who might need a little extra support to participate in HL Kids, we’d love to partner with you to make their experience amazing! Please send us an email: [email protected]

Our goal is to foster a distraction-free environment where all attendees can fully engage in worship and experience a meaningful encounter with Jesus, while also desiring to provide our mature adults the space to learn and grow without distraction.

While we deeply value the presence of children, we kindly encourage you to utilize HL Kids, our dedicated space that offers a fun and secure time for children to learn about Jesus each Sunday. Our team of committed leaders provides excellent care, creating an engaging and age-appropriate experience tailored to your child’s needs.

For the comfort of all attendees, children from infancy to Kindergarten are not permitted in the Main Auditorium. We are confident that your child will enjoy their time in HL Kids and look forward to them experiencing the love of Jesus in a way that is uniquely suited to them.

Child Dedications are a great opportunity for a family to publicly commit to lead the spiritual development of their child.

We invite families with children ages 0 – 4 years to participate in our child dedication services. Child dedications are scheduled throughout the spring and fall seasons. 

Child dedications are important because our children are important to God. We see examples of Jesus and Samuel being dedicated to the Lord in Luke 2:22 & 1 Samuel 1:10-11.
