Each Sunday, our trained and background-checked volunteers are happy to welcome your children to the nursery beginning at 10:15. Children ages 0-Pre-K can begin to see and experience God’s love for them through stories, play and songs. Infants through crawlers are in the Baby Room. Walkers through 2-year olds (still in diapers) are in the Toddler Room. Potty training 3-year olds through Pre-K are in the Preschool Room. If you have questions or are interested in serving our children and families in this way, please email our Nursery Director, Heather Parham (hparham@resurrectionathens.com) or complete our Volunteer Interest form HERE.

Worship Kits

We believe we have been given the wonderful challenge and command to teach our children how to worship through modeling and intentional training. We provide a worship kit right outside the sanctuary that includes a children’s worship guide, clipboard, writing utensils and activities. We encourage parents to work alongside their children to use the worship guide as a tool to teach children the elements of worship.

Res Time

Though children are always welcome in the service, we do offer Res Time, a special time of teaching during the sermon for children in Kindergarten. During this time, our children learn and discuss a Gospel story, pray, memorize verses, and grow relationships with other children. Beyond Kindergarten, we welcome your child to enjoy the entire service and experience the joy of worshiping together as one body.

Growth Classes

We offer Sunday-School style classes (Growth Classes) for our PreK-5th Graders before the service from 9:30-10:15. These classes begin after Labor Day on 9/8 and will conclude before Advent on 11/17. There are no Growth Classes on the last Sunday of the month.

For more information about Res Time or Growth Classes, contact our Director of Children’s Ministry, Abby Bartelt (abartelt@resurrectionathens.com).

Growing up can be an awkward, amazing, and scary place all at the same time. As middle and high school students attempt to navigate through life’s challenges, our desire is to be a safe place where students can explore the gospel and its implications for their lives as they wrestle with tough questions, worship together, serve together, and do life together.
