Need to Know: Take Off Bitterness; Put On Forgiveness
Discussion:

Hi-Yah:  We will discover how to be made new in our hearts and in our thinking as we take off the bad habits of the old self and train to put on the new self. Our hope is that kids will see how to be that new person who was made to be like God, truly good and pleasing to Him.

Worship

Here’s what we’re doing for 3RW Kids!

Sunday Family Worship 10AM

Here's the scoop:

• 3Rivers Kids has "reopened" with a modified kids program for preK through grade 5 (no supervised nursery).
• Praise Packs are still available for kids preK – grade 5 with activity pages and other fun surprises they can keep.  
• Indoor Plan: kids dismiss to the kid's worship room after family worship time for a whole group lesson (Bible lesson, games/craft, songs) in a combined-age setting. Kids breakout into small groups (lowers: Prek-1st gr, uppers: 2nd-5th gr).

Kid's Series

• In the 8-week series "Hi-Yah," We will discover how to be made new in our hearts and in our thinking as we take off the bad habits of the old self and train to put on the new self. Our hope is that kids will see how to be that new person who was made to be like God, truly good and pleasing to Him.
• The Online Family resources will help equip you as your child’s personal spiritual trainer and coordinates with the same weekly themes and scriptures that we're using for live church!​​

Families with Little Ones

Here are some plans we’ve made with families in mind while our regular / supervised nursery care is not available:

• The Walk-In Nursery is open for infant care-givers that shows the service live-stream.
• A Wiggle Room is open to caregivers of kids, age 3 and under to take a break, as-needed, then return to the main family worship.  Adult supervision required.  See picture above.
• Infant changing stations are located in the Walk-in Nursery, Wiggle Room, and Family Restroom.

The Vision

Three Rivers children's programming is offered Sunday mornings during our service at 10:00am for children age 3 to 5th grade. Children learn about God in large group and small group settings while our volunteers use a variety of creative tools for teachings, Bible stories, and life application principles. If you have any questions about our children's ministry please use the contact tab to email Pastor Sarah.  

Dedicated Children's Space

A few years ago we completely renovated half of our church building into an amazing new children's wing! The goal was to create a space that is safe, exciting and designed specifically with our kids in mind! The new wing features a designated children's worship center, a parent-check-in station, several age specific classrooms and children's restrooms. We hope that it will be a place your kids are excited to come to every week!

Nursery

Currently, the Nurseries are open to parents and caregivers.

Prior to Covid-19:
We have a fully staffed nursery with trained volunteers who view serving you and your children as a ministry opportunity. We also have a new "walk-in" nursery immediately off the main worship center that is available for parents who would prefer to have their young children with them but might still need a quiet place with a changing table or rocking chair! We love kids and can't wait to connect with your family!
