Our Mission

The mission of FUMC Children's Ministry is to teach our children that they can trust God no matter what, to treat others the way they want to be treated, and to make wise choices.

FUMC Children's Ministry

Fun. Games. Getting to know Jesus. Vacation Bible School. Mission Day Camp. Shenanigans. Sunday School. Advent Adventure. Fall Fest. Easter Walks...and so much more. But, you'll have to come hang out with us to see it all!

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at tbacon@firstmethodist.org if you cannot find an answer to your question.

We care very much about the safety and wellbeing of others. (It's kind of a thing Jesus talked a lot about.) At FUMC:

  • We are not requiring attendees to wear a mask while inside the church building. We will have masks near all entry doors for you to wear if you choose.
  • If you have a fever, cough, or other COVID-19 symptoms, please stay home. You can join our services by watching online.
  • Sanitize and/or wash your hands regularly. 
  • We will continue to provide hand-sanitizer and masks at all entrances and will sanitize high-touch surfaces between worship services.

The best place to start is at Sunday School. We meet each week for Sunday school at FUMC. Sunday school is offered from our nursery-age children all the way up to our 6th graders. 


Children in 1st-3rd grade start off with Children's Worship and then break off into grade-level small groups. Preteen in 4th-6th grade start off with Preteen Worship and then break off into grade-level small groups. 


Check the calendar for the next invite event: Fall Fest, Advent Adventure, Easter Walk, Vacation Bible School, Mission Day Camp, etc. For more info about those events, fill out the form under "Contact Us." Let the Children's Ministry team know you want to check it out, so we can help you have the best experience!


Sunday Mornings: All children can check-in at the Children's Check-In Desk in the Conference Center of the Youth Building. Park in the America Street lot and enter through the covered doors. You'll be greeted by a smiling face and shown how to check in at the computer.

Nursery: Located in the Children's Center next to the entrance to the Sanctuary. Our loving and trained nursery team are eager to play with your child and help them learn that God loves them!

Elementary (1st-3rd Grade): Take the elevator, or stairs (if you're into that sort of thing), to the 3rd floor Room 305. You'll hang out before breaking into your grade-level groups for a discussion and lesson about God!

Preteen (4th-6th Grade): Take the elevator or stairs to the 3rd floor Oasis Room.  You'll hang out before breaking into your grade-level groups for a discussion and lesson about God!


Any child who wants to be there! Regardless of the church you attend, or don’t attend, we welcome anyone who desires to be part of our community of faith. Just come to Sunday School, FUSE, Heir Force, or any event, and you belong! We can’t wait to grow in faith together.
