Radiant Kids
(6 Weeks - 5th Grade)
Sunday mornings at our Richland and Portage locations.
Check-in begins 30 minutes before service, with classrooms opening 15 minutes prior to the service beginning.
During check-in, children and parents/guardians receive matching printed nametags and pick-up tags to ensure your child’s safety. The child’s nametag identifies their classroom and a security code that matches the pick-up tag. Parent/Guardian picking up a child must provide the matching pick-up tag in order for the child to be released.
All Team Radiant volunteers serving in Radiant Kids receive a background check and do not serve alone.
Radiant Kids Programs
Early Childhood
Even the youngest child can experience the love of God. That’s why we design our early childhood environments to help children connect with Jesus at each unique developmental stage.
Infants
Infants receive individual attention from trained volunteers. We attend to your child’s physical and spiritual needs by holding, talking to and praying for each child.
Toddlers
Toddlers enjoy play, snack and fun worship music while learning to play with other children and adults. We engage your child in playful, happy moments in a safe and caring environment.
Preschool
Preschool-aged children experience play, a lesson that teaches age-appropriate Biblical truths, and a time of interactive praise and worship. The monthly memory verse engages kids to hide God’s Word in their hearts. After a simple snack and story, children depart with ideas for continued learning at home.
Moms of Babies
Moms of babies appreciate our nursing mother’s room, a private & quiet environment where mom can care for her infant while continuing to watch the service on livestream.
Elementary
God passionately loves your kids. He calls kids to follow Him while they are young, so our Kindergarten - 5th grade environments are designed to encourage kids to connect with Jesus and to worship Him wholeheartedly.
Kindergarten – 5th Grade
Kindergarten - 5th grade children experience a purposeful and fun worship service. They strengthen friendships with leaders and other kids through play. Together, we connect with God in worship, praising Him through music, dance, giving, and prayer. In every service, kids receive Biblical truth with life application, putting God’s Word to work in their lives today, while also laying a firm foundation for the future.
