These items will remain with the bags to be used each week.

What is a Worship activity bag?

Our church bags will be changing mid-September to "Worship activity bags". These bags and activities are reusable week to week which decreases the financial burden as well as the time necessary to create each bag each week. Inside the bags you will find, a bible, a variety of quiet fidget toys, a writing utensil as well as a notebook. Please leave all the supplies inside the bag when returned at the end of service. The purpose of these bags is to help your children listen and focus in on worship. We will also have an activity page and page for sermon notes located above the "Worship Activity Bags" area that your child(ren) may use along with a bag. Please take the activity pages home with you. Snacks will no longer be included in the Worship bags, please plan ahead if you feel like your child will need a snack during worship services. Also remember that we have children's church for ages 3 to 1st grade as well as the nursery staffed for any child under the age of 3.

KWCOC Childcare Protection Policy

If you are volunteering in any capacity with the children's ministry or the youth ministry, per the KWCOC Child protection policy you will need to complete the following three items prior to being a volunteer: (this applies to all volunteers 15 and up)

1.) Volunteer Application (click here) - only completed once

2.) Complete the Child protection policy training and test (click here) completed once unless you get notice that it has been updated

3.) Complete a Background check (once your volunteer application is complete, you will receive an email for the background check) - this is to be completed every two years

Once again, this policy applies to everyone 15 and up that wishes to volunteer in the Children's ministry or the youth ministry (ie. VBS, teaching classes, CM/YM events, camps chaperones, taco Tuesday, providing childcare at KWCOC, etc.)
