    We have no Sunday School or age/gender divisions. One hour and a half Sunday service where families 99% of the time sit together by choice and before and after the service everyone mingles and talk. Bimonthly Wednesday night service where we go through the Bible every two years. Two hour Service tonight, no one fidgeting or looking at their watches. Very thankful for our church. Never been part of one like it until now.

    Right now, we have no need for a nursery and when we have visitors come with children, we give them the option for us to set one up but most of the time, they keep the babies with them.

    For children in school to grade 6, we have a Sunday School that meets during the message. They are in for the worship with their parents but then split out for the message time. They have a curriculum that they go through that is consistent across all three campuses so if we have visitors from another campus, the kids are getting familiar content.

    From 7th grade up, the kids stay in the service.

    No, God alters us which is why we come to Him.
