TCkids

Big truths for little hearts. Our littlest kids learn about Jesus with Bible stories, songs, crafts, snacks, and friends. Elementary kids join a large-group worship time, then dig deeper in small groups.

  • Early childhood: 0–11 months, 1–2 years, 3–5 years
  • Elementary: K, 1st–2nd and 3rd–4th grade (girls & boys)
  • No registration needed. Check in at the Family Ministry table.

Every kid belongs here.

For parents

Questions? Ask away.

How do I register my kids?

For birth through elementary, just come to the Family Ministry Check-In desk when you arrive on Sunday. Someone will help you get registered and walk you to your child's class.

What about allergies or special needs?

We'll note that information when you register and make every accommodation we can. Our classrooms are nut-free, and we post any snacks we're serving outside the classroom door.

What if you need to reach me during the service?

For first-time kids, we ask for a parent cell phone at check-in and will text you if there's any concern. If your child has a hard time at drop-off, we can also text you a photo once they settle in.

My child wants to be baptized.

That's awesome! We have a baptism journal your child can complete with you to make sure they're ready. Email baptism@cothecommons.com to learn more.

Do you have baby dedications?

Yes, twice a year. Register through our events page, or reach out to our TCkids Director or TCkids Coordinator.
