Toddlers are naturally curious and love opportunities to explore, imagine, and create. In Mini Lights, children can begin discovering the Bible through simple stories, interactive activities, singing, and play. Our desire is for every child to experience God’s love and begin growing in awe and wonder at His goodness as they learn about Him. 

Check-In and Pick-Up 

Before the service begins, please bring your child to the New Life Kids Check-In Booth in the main foyer. Your child will receive a name sticker, and you will receive a matching security tag for pick-up. 

Your child is welcome to head downstairs to Mini Lights right away or join you in the main worship service. After the singing portion of the service, children are invited forward for a blessing before heading downstairs for their Mini Lights program. 

At pick-up, please present the matching security tag. For your child’s safety, we require this tag before releasing them into your care. 

Supporting Your Child’s Transition 

We understand that every child and family has a different comfort level when it comes to separating on Sunday mornings. You are welcome to keep your child with you in the main service for as long as you feel is best. Mini Lights is simply another opportunity for your child to participate in a smaller group setting when you and your child are ready. There is no pressure to send your little one downstairs before you feel comfortable. 

If your child is attending Mini Lights, our caregivers may contact you by text using the phone number provided at check-in if they need your assistance. We want to work alongside you to make your child’s experience comfortable, positive, and reassuring. 

Health and Safety 

We want Mini Lights to be a safe and healthy environment for all our children. If your child is unwell or showing signs of a contagious illness, please keep them with you during the service until they are feeling better. 

To ensure every child receives appropriate care and supervision, we maintain safe caregiver-to-child ratios. Occasionally, this may mean we are unable to welcome additional children when our room has reached its safe capacity. We appreciate your understanding as we work to provide a safe, caring environment for every child.
