There are lots of ways for kids to plug-in at Orchard Covenant church! All of our volunteers in the children's programming are background checked, friendly and eager to serve your child as they grow in their faith.

Sunday Programming

Sunday School –  We have our Christian Formation hour (ie. Sunday School) 9am on Sunday Mornings before the worship service. It is divided into several classes based both on ages as well as reading level (so that everyone is learning about God without barriers! No matter your english and reading proficiency)

During the Service-  Children ages 3rd grade- Kindergarten,  begin the service with their families for the opening,  and then go together for a special service for them in the community hall  (we call it children’s church),  they are then led back to their families for the end of the service. 

Nursery –   Preschool aged, toddlers and infant are welcome to worship with you, but we have childcare available in our downstairs children’s area throughout Sunday School and the service.

Confirmation

During the middle school years,  we love to challenge our youth to grow into a faith that they own for themselves.  Taking place during the Christian Formation hour,  it is a great opportunity for them to live into the faith that you have placed in them.

Camp Squanto

Every summer, we send our kids (2nd grade up) to Pilgrim Pines,  an associated campground a little over an hour North in Swanzey, New Hampshire.  We offer scholarships so that all families who wish this opportunity can afford it.

Worship Team, Welcome Ministry, Audio/Visual Tech, etc.

We believe that you are never to young to participate in service to others and for God.  We make a point of inviting and welcoming all ages into the activities and ministries of the church.

Activities

We love to be spontaneous!  As you get to know us,  you will discover that fun matters to us.  Whether it is sledding, hiking and a pickup game of soccer –  we want our youth to know that we like hanging out with them and so does God!
