Children

Castleton KIDS

Our desire is to lead children to know and trust Jesus with the aim that they would grow to be God-centered, Christ-exalting, Spirit-dependent, Bible-saturated, doctrinal-grounded, faith-filled, mission-minded, spiritually mature men and women of God.

We believe that parents are the primary disciplers of their children. Therefore, we desire to work alongside our parents to build their child's faith in God. Our children's programming centers around God's transformative truth from the Bible and on helping children build strong relationships with peers and leaders.

Sunday Morning

During our worship hours, families are welcome to worship together in the sanctuary or check their children into Castleton KIDS. Classroom groupings are listed below for each service. Families can enter through the Family Entrance (Door 3) where our volunteers will greet you and help with the check-in process.

Gospel Project Curriculum

The Gospel Project is a Christ-centered, chronologically based study for children of all ages. Castleton Kids uses this curriculum for children from nursery through sixth grade. All children learn the same base lesson each week, with age appropriate differentiation. Children will bring home a Parent Page which describes what the child learned in class and ways for parents to further disciple their child through the week. 

FALL 2023 UPDATE: We are excited to continue our way through the Gospel Project curriculum. We will continue to practice and review New City Catechism questions each month in class.

Family Worship

At Castleton Community Church, we believe it is essential to teach children about the value of worshipping with other believers. On the first Sunday of every month during the school year, elementary classrooms close and families are encouraged to worship together in the sanctuary. We don't mind the extra wiggles and the loudly whispered questions. We hope families take advantage of the opportunity to model a rich worship environment for their children.

All children are welcome to sit with guardians in the church service at any time. Busy bags are always available at the welcome desk. Nursery and preschool care are always available during the 9AM. Nursery and toddler care is always available during the 11AM service.
