Children
Greenville Oaks Children’s Ministry partners with families to help children from birth through fifth grade grow in their faith and understanding of God and how deeply He loves them. We believe learning about Jesus should be fun, engaging, age-appropriate, and rooted in love.
Each Sunday, children are welcomed into safe, nurturing environments created just for them. Through Bible stories, worship, hands-on activities, play, and small group time, kids explore their faith in meaningful and memorable ways.
Our goals are simple:
- Help every child know they are loved by God
- Teach them they can trust God no matter what
- Encourage them to make wise choices and love others well
- Equip them to understand and use the Bible in daily life
- Provide a welcoming space where families are supported and valued
Whether it’s a baby’s first smile in the nursery or a fifth grader asking big questions about God, we walk alongside each child and family as they together grow in faith.
Preschool
(3 YEARS – PRE-K)
Preschoolers have two ways to participate each Sunday morning during worship. They can either go to an attended nursery for the full worship service or begin in worship with their families until just before the sermon when they are dismissed to an age-appropriate Children’s Worship. There they will enjoy singing, playtime, and Bible stories. Our Children’s Ministry team will help guide them to the secure children’s wing for continued worship and activities.
Bible classes are offered between worship services for all ages. Preschoolers engage in interactive learning and colorful visuals that reinforce these truths:
- God Made Me
- God Loves Me
- Jesus Wants to Be My Friend Forever
Our guest services team is available to assist guests or others that need assistance with Check-in, provide directions, or answer any other questions at the Visitor Center in our lobby at the west end of the building.
ELEMENTARY
(KINDERGARTEN - 5TH GRADE)
Elementary-aged children begin Sunday worship with their families. Just before the sermon, they’re invited to Children’s Worship where they participate in large-group music, prayer, and an engaging Bible lesson in a fun, age-appropriate environment. We believe the Bible should never be boring, worship can be loud and exciting, and that kids thrive under the care of supportive, loving leaders.
Bible classes are offered between services and focus on small groups and building Christ-centered, intergenerational relationships. Our goal is to help kids understand how God’s Word applies to their lives, how to talk to Him, and how to build lasting friendships.
Before they move on from elementary, we want every child to remember these three core truths:
- I need to make the wise choice.
- I can trust God, no matter what.
- I should treat others the way I want to be treated.
