Welcome to discovery kids

At Lakeholm Church of the Nazarene, we want your family to find its place of ministry.  Whether you have an infant, toddler, preschooler, or elementary-age child, there is a place for everyone!  We all have a story, and it is our desire to help each child find their place in the story of God and "Discover the Story of God." If you have questions about the Children's Ministry, we would love to talk to you!  Please contact Pastor Mindy Schemrich (lakeholmkids@lakeholm.org) to receive further instruction on how you can get connected and invest in this vital ministry area.

Nursery

• Infants and toddlers from newborn to three are welcome to join our nursery workers to learn about God.  Infants (birth to 18 months) and toddlers (19months to 3 years) learn about God's love through our caring volunteers and staff. 

Beginners

• Ages 4–5 (PreKindergarten) to Kindergarten are welcome to join Beginner Kids Worship on Sunday mornings. Our Beginners class joins in large group worship and then goes to small group time where they continue to learn about God's story, discover truths of the Bible, and how to apply what they are learning through games, crafts, and songs. 

Elementary

• Discovery Kid's Worship is for children 1st–6th Grade. This is a time where we desire for kids to Discover the Story of God.  Our worship begins with praise songs, fun games, and learning Biblical truths through God's Word, and how we can apply these truths to our lives by loving God and Others. The children are given small group time where they are continuing to enforce the truths we've learned during Worship and how to apply those to their every day lives with children their age.

The last Sunday of the month is a time for family worship in the Morning Worship Service with the whole family. We believe that it is important for our families to worship together corporately.  So, once a month we provide worship with the whole family. 

Infant and Toddler Nursery is still available for our youngest members.

Bible Quizzing is for 1st–6th graders. This is a wonderful opportunity to learn a book of the Bible through scripture memorization, studying and quizzing on the local, district, and world level.  Bible quizzing began in August, 2020. This year's study is the book of Exodus. Quizzers will practice on Wednesday nights from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm. The cost to quiz is $10/person, and this includes all materials for the season. 

*All are welcome to come on Wednesday.  If your child does not want to compete, they can still study the book of Exodus, and there is no fee. 

We participate with the NCO District Church of the Nazarene Summer Camp. Children's camps are at the Pleasant Valley Ranch in Perrysville, OH.  Children's camp is a memorable experience for each child and allows each one to experience a deeper walk with Jesus. Please see Pastor Mindy Schemrich for questions and/or applications.
