Welcome to the Children’s Ministry of Christ Church Episcopal! We offer a wide variety of exciting children’s programs, and we invite you and your children to become active participants in the spiritual life of our community. Our programs are described in our Children’s Ministry Handbook, available in the milling area and education building. We hope you will pick up a copy and get your child involved today!

Here’s what to expect on Saturdays and Sundays:

Kids Quest!

On Saturday Nights during worship (5:30) and on Sunday Mornings during the education hour (10:00), children from preschool through 5th grade are invited to join the journey at our exciting new children’s program, Kids’ Quest! In Kids’ Quest (formerly known as “Sunday School”), kids meet in theme-based discover groups (Seekers, Pathfinders, Navigators, Blazers, Adventurers, Detectives, Voyagers, and Aviators) and explore the Bible, the church, and the community, learning what it means to be a Christian. Then, once a month everyone is invited to gather together on Sunday morning for a large group experience to Blast Off! and soar to new heights with God. Come Join the Quest!

Nursery!

Nursery care is provided for children under four during Saturday worship and for children under three during Sunday worship. Our nursery is staffed by well trained professional staff as well as parent volunteers. The nursery is in the worship building, to the left of the milling area.

Children’s Chapel!

Children’s Chapel is held during both services on Sunday morning, and is for children age three through the first grade. Children begin worship in the worship space and are then shepherded out for chapel, returning to their parents for communion.

If you have any questions or would like more information about any of our children’s programs, please contact Penny Sellers, Minister of Christian Education and Formation, at 364-0394 or p.sellers@christchurchrichmond.com.
