9:00 am & 10:30 am KidZONE
Identical children's ministry programs are offered at the 9:00 am and 10:30 am services.
KidZONE Nursery (Birth through Age 3) - Drop your little ones off at the KidZONE nursery, located in the front of the church, just to the south of the main lobby. Our KidZONE nursery staff will provide excellent care for them while you are in the adult service. Children will hear a weekly Bible story, color a picture, and play with others all the while being encouraged and loved by our experienced and screened KidZONE team.
KidZONE Early Childhood (Age 4-7) - Early childhood is a time of great imagination and excitement for life. Check your children ages 4-7 in, located just off the main lobby next to the nursery, and let the fun begin. They'll learn a practical story from the Bible and what it means for them. They'll do crafts, sing songs and have fun being with other kids. It's a high energy room where kids will experience God's love from the KidZONE team and from each other.
KidZONE Elementary (Ages 8 - Grade 5) - Our big kids have fun times learning about God and His Son, Jesus, and will be equipped to know how to live for God when they come home and head to school on Monday. The room is filled with games and activities that will keep their attention, while our adult team encourages them to love God and live for Him. The room is located just to the north of the main church lobby.

Wellness Policy
We ask that parents only bring their children to the KidZONE if their children are healthy and without colds or other contagious illnesses in an effort to protect the other children from contracting the illness.
Restroom Policy
We ask all parents to have their children use the restrooms before signing them in to the KidZONE. Due to the design of our facility, it's important that children are reminded each week in order to prevent distractions within the KidZONE as well as within the sanctuary.
Staffing
All volunteers/staff have been screened by our pastoral staff. All have filled out appropriate applications and have had background checks done to be sure that your child will receive the most safe, secure environment we can possibly provide. The KidZONE Nursery is staffed by a preschool professional, Denise Gonzalez who has been with CCC since 2002.
