ELC Kids
A place to grow in God and have fun doing it.
What is ELC Kids?
Every weekend, infants through 6th graders experience safe, age-appropriate environments where the Bible comes alive in fun and meaningful ways. ELC Kids is designed just for them, with engaging services that meet them right where they are. We encourage parents to bring their kids to ELC Kids rather than the main service, so they can grow in faith and enjoy church made just for them. Drop off begins at 8:30 am. We would love to welcome your family this Sunday!
- Lil Voyagers: 0 – 2 years
- Lil Sparks: 3 years – 4 years
- The Powerplant: Kindergarten – 3rd grade
- Shock: 4th – 6th grade
Your First Visit
We are excited to meet you! Our team will help you check in using our secure system and walk you to your child’s age-appropriate room. You’ll fill out a quick form with your family’s info, including names, contact details, and any special instructions, such as allergies or needs. We’re here to make your first visit smooth and safe!
How Check-In Works
New here? Check in your child at any desk in the ELC Kids lobby.
Returning families can use any ELC Kids kiosk—just enter your phone number to find your child’s name.
Need some help? Our servant leaders are happy to assist you at the desk!
At check-in, you and your child will receive matching ID tags for that day.
Your child wears the name tag; you keep the matching tag.
For pick-up, show your matching tag to your child’s room leader.
Keep your tag visible for quicker access through our secure area.
If needed during service, we’ll text you—please exit the auditorium and go directly to your child’s classroom.
The Ride Home
On the way home, we encourage you to ask your child questions like:
- What was your favorite part of the service?
- Tell me something you learned?
It’s our goal that every child has a positive experience at ELC Kids and can share what they learned by answering these questions each week. This helps parents partner with us in nurturing your child’s faith.
Special Experiences

At Elevate Life, we offer a Nursing Moms’ Room designed for mothers nursing children aged twelve months and under. This private, quiet space allows you to comfortably care for your little one while still being able to watch the service. The “Mom’s Only” Room is conveniently located near the lobby.

Children with special needs are able to be a part of the Pulse Ministry, where our trained and caring leaders are dedicated to meeting each child’s spiritual, educational, and sensory needs. Located in the interior classrooms on the kids’ side of the building.

Things that matter to us
Safety
Every child's name tag is matched to a parent identification number for pick-up. Every servant leader, identified in a light blue ELC Kids shirt, is screened with an interview and federal background check to ensure their safety. Each hallway is secure and monitored by security personnel and staff.
Age-Appropriateness
Our environments and content are created in a way your child will understand. We care about your child's development and meeting their needs on where they are at in life.
Relationships
Legacy Milestones
These are intentional moments that help children understand who God is, who they are, and how to live out their faith as they grow.
Recognize important moments of growth and maturity
Build healthy habits that shape character and confidence
Create faith markers they can remember as they grow
Creative Bible Teaching
We believe the Bible is the most amazing book ever written! Through skits, puppets, media, activities, stories and live worship, we creatively present the Word of God to keep kids engaged in the moment. We desire for kids to love God's Word and understand the value of applying it to their life.
Fun
Kids love to have FUN! We realize when children have fun at church, they get excited to come back. We value creating fun ways for children to learn about Jesus through games, activities, singing, live acting, and more.
FAQ
Children may sit with you in the main auditorium, but it is highly suggested for children to attend their age-appropriate service.
We recommend baptism when your child is able to personally acknowledge and accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Typically, a child will be able to understand this around kindergarten-1st grade. Your child must also be able to hold their breath under the water. We do not baptize infants or toddlers, but we will dedicate them. Child Dedication is for birth to any age and happens quarterly. Register for Baptism.
God wants to build and leave a legacy through our children. Dedicating your baby or child means that we know they ultimately belong to God. It is our hope that your child will discover God, experience His love, and choose to serve Him. Child dedications is for birth through any age and happen one a quarter. To register your child to be dedicated, CLICK HERE.
We send out a newsletter every month as well as give handouts to every child after service that are age appropriate and you can follow us on instagram @ELC_KIDS.
