CHILDREN’S MINISTRY

Teaching the next generation about who God is

Thank you so much for checking out Four Oaks Children’s Ministries! At Four Oaks Midtown, we value your children and want to provide them with a safe and secure environment, where they can learn about Jesus. When you arrive, look for the sign that says “Children’s Check-In.” At this station, we will register your children (including allergies/medical conditions) using our church’s online software program called Planning Center Check Ins, provide you with a pickup tag, and then a volunteer will walk your child back to their classroom. All of our volunteers are screened and trained to care for your children and our staff will maintain appropriate adult-to-child ratios to help ensure their safety. If you would like to be in a classroom with your child, please contact our Children’s Director ahead of time to arrange for a background check and training time.

Nursery, preschool, and elementary Sunday school classes are offered for children 0yo-5th grade weekly. All children experience a time in the Word, in prayer, and worship through song each week that is developmentally appropriate for their age. At both of our Sunday services we offer:

  • Nursery: 0-2yo

  • Preschool Sunday School: 2-5yo

  • Elementary Sunday School: K-5th Grade

Small Groups and Missions Moment are important times in our Children’s Ministries. It is our hope, through exploring their creativity, in relevance to each week’s Bible story, we foster and inspire a deeper understanding of the Scripture teachings in our small groups. In our Missions Moment, we introduce children weekly to our Gospel Partners, their prayer needs, and explore the culture they are engaging with. One goal of this time is to bridge the gap from our Gospel Partners to their sending church and our children to the work of missions in every age and stage of their lives.

Our Volunteer are regular attendees of Four Oaks Midtown. Each of them has completed a comprehensive series of child-care training sessions and undergone thorough background checks. The safety of your child is our priority.
