Sunday Evening Activities:

 

What is Sunday Night Kids (SNK)?

SNK is a Sunday evening program for grades K-5th offered during the school year.  It is 90 minutes of mission, games, and music.  In the fall, we prepare for the Christmas concert and do weekly mission projects.  In the spring, the group prepares a full musical and performs for the church.

SNK encompasses the Rock Choir where we sing, dance, play bells, and learn music basics.  It is a fun time for all levels of music.

This group meets from 6-7:30 p.m.  Drop off and pick up are in the lobby of the children’s wing.

 

I’m New Here

We are so excited to welcome you to Middletown. When you arrive you’ll fill out a registration form, or you can fill it out beforehand below to expedite the process. We want your visit to go as smoothly as possible. We look forward to meeting you and your child!

Ages Birth-2

We provide the youngest members of your family with the love and care they need in a clean and safe nursery environment with excellent staff.

Ages 3-5

We give preschoolers a colorful, fun environment for Sunday School. Here, they participate in interactive lessons about love and kindness pulled straight from the Bible.

Kindergarten-5th

Our dynamic elementary programs help aid child development by teaching kids about moral values and Christ’s love through weekly bible teachings.

Weekday Preschool

We would love to see your kids every day! We welcome children ages 2 through kindergarten into our weekday classes. Our preschool and kindergarten programs offer quality education that reflects the principles of Christ's love. In our safe and nurturing classrooms, we determine how each student learns best, and we apply that knowledge to our lesson plans. We also believe children this age learn primarily through play, so our curriculum includes plenty of games to keep your little ones occupied and their minds busy.

Buddy Break

Middletown Christian Church is blessed to be the first partner church in Kentucky for Buddy Break (Nathaniel’s Hope). Buddy Break is a free respite program that allows children with special needs (VIP kids) to make new friends and enjoy all kinds of activities, while offering caregivers a break from their responsibilities.

FAQs

Your child’s safety is important to us. We ask that you sign each child in at one of the computer terminals in our Children’s Lobby on Sunday mornings. (First-time visitors will be asked to fill out a simple form so your children can be entered into our electronic check-in system.) A two-part sticker will be printed. Your child will wear one part of it as a name tag, and you’ll need to present the other section at pick-up time. We pay staff members to work in our nursery and toddler rooms (birth to age 2) to give our youngest children continuity and stability. All of our volunteers and staff undergo background checks.

During the 9:50 hour, we use 252 Basics curriculum for Grades K-5 in Kids Worship and Small Group Discussion. 252 Basics is founded on three simple, but powerful, truths modeled by Jesus in Luke 2:52:

  • I need to make the wise choice.
  • I can trust God no matter what.
  • I should treat others the way I want to be treated.

Children ages 3-5 use First Look, another curriculum from the creators of 252 Basics. They learn the same stories and themes in age-appropriate ways.

Many different volunteer positions support our children’s ministry, and you may work directly with children or work behind the scenes. Background checks are required.  For more information, contact Amanda O’Mahoney at [email protected] or call the church office at 245-9793.
