NORTHVIEW KIDS WEEKEND MINISTRY
Children's Ministry is available at our 9am service each Sunday. This is for nursery (6 months - 2 years), preschool (ages 2 - 4), and kindergarten through grade 5.
Starting on January 12, 2025 we are opening up our Nursery Program for our 11:00am Services!
Nursery
Your child is a beautiful gift from God and we are here to care for and love your baby or toddler. We also are excited to help introduce your child to their Creator through play, songs, stories, and prayer time.
Our nursery is for babies and toddlers from 6 months – 2 years old. The Nursery is located upstairs in the North Building (above the Worship Center).
Our nursery features:
- Carefully enforced check-in system
- Strict enforcement of volunteer/child ratios of 1:3
- Weekly cleansing and disinfecting of toys
- The most loving and gifted volunteers to care for and love on your littles
Preschool
Preschool is for children aged 2 – 4. Each week your child will be welcomed by caring and compassionate teachers and helpers. Your child will participate in singing and will hear the Bible story creatively taught, followed by prayer, Bible verse memorization, activity time, and craft. The activities relate directly to the Bible story and allow the teacher to re-tell and reinforce the Bible lesson. Your child will be personally prayed for each and every week they come.
We are committed to meeting their needs for love, security, understanding, and acceptance in a world that is unstable, competitive, and sometimes violent. Our programs are kid-oriented, our teachers and supervisors are carefully chosen, and our curriculum is Biblically sound. It is a privilege to care for your children here. Together as a team, we are growing tomorrow’s leaders. Let’s give them the best. Let’s give them Jesus! After all, they are HIS kids!
Grade School
Children in Kindergarten through Grade 5 gather for a time of worship before being divided by grade to meet in their own classroom for activities, Bible study, and prayer. Our children are taught the Word of God using Gospel Project.
Here we seek to sow seeds of faith in our children by teaching God’s Word, modelling godly character, and displaying Christ’s Love. Our programs are kid-oriented, our teachers and supervisors are carefully chosen, and our curriculum is Biblically sound. It is a privilege to care for your children here. Together as a team, we are growing tomorrow’s leaders. Let’s give them the best. Let’s give them Jesus! After all, they are HIS kids!
Each week the kids are given a memory verse to memorize. We use the NirV Bible as it is very kid-friendly. This Bible is available for purchase on the weekends for $25.
Are You PASSIONATE ABOUT KIDS MINISTRY?
Are you interested in joining our weekend leadership team? We would love to have you! We are looking for volunteers for our 11:00AM nursery team starting in January 2025, preschool programs and security. If you have questions please email Pastor Chrystal at claforest@northview.org.
Child Dedication
At Northview Church, we aim to equip our parents to raise deeply rooted kids who love our great God, and child dedication is part of the journey. Child dedication is the parents’ affirmation before the gathered church of their intent to lead and spiritually nurture their child to know, love and serve God.
- Child Dedication Classes and services are held at the Abbotsford Northview locations as well as the Mission location
- All parents must attend a Child Dedication Class prior to the dedication service
- If you’ve already attended a Child Dedication Class, you do not need to attend again
Join us at our next Child Dedication Class!
Upcoming Dates:
- Sunday, January 26, 2024 at 12:30pm
Motherhood in the Word
We’re excited to invite moms to a time of discipleship, fellowship, and parenting encouragement while their little ones (ages 0-5) enjoy a space to play. If you loved Motherhood Cafe, this program offers a similar experience but with a twist!
Join us weekly on Wednesday mornings, starting January 8, from 9:30-11:00AM at Northview Mission, as we dive into Habits of the Household by Justin Whitmel Earley. Homeschool families are welcome, but please bring a quiet activity for older children, as this space is designed for younger ones.
This 13 week study is a wonderful opportunity to grow in both faith and community. Registration is now closed – please reach out to mission@northview.org if you would like to still join, or have any questions.
