Children's Ministry

Saxonburg Memorial Church welcomes your family!  We believe that children are a gift from God.  Our passion is to not only have a safe and fun experience for your child but for them to develop a close personal relationship with Jesus Christ. With child care from birth through 5th grade, we hope and pray that you and your child feel God’s love and peace with our ministry.

This intergenerational gathering meets on Second Tuesdays at 5:30pm to share share a meal, explore the Biblical theme together, and celebrate the lesson. Check out our Messy Church page!

Nursery (6 mos - Pre-K)

Each week during our 10:00 service, we offer nursery care for our littlest believers. Children of all ages are welcome to participate in the worship service! If you’d like to use the nursery it begins partway through service, with Sunday School. The nursery is located downstairs off of fellowship hall.

Sunday School

During our 10 am service, children Preschool – 5th grade are dismissed after the children’s sermon to go to a classroom for bible stories, crafts and games. Pre-K – 2nd grade meet downstairs. 3rd – 5th grade meet in the Roebling House (our office building right next door!).

Children’s Sermon /Kids in Worship

Nestled in the middle of the 10 am service, our children are invited to participate in worship by listening to a brief (and entertaining) children’s message. Many congregation members have articulated how much they enjoy seeing the children being themselves in front of the church. Materials are provided in canvas bags located in the main entrance for children who remain in worship for the entirety of the service.

Our Facilities

Welcome to our church! There are restroom facilities equipped with changing tables located upstairs and downstairs, along with child size toilets in the nursery. A “Family Room” is available for the comfort of nursing mothers, babies, toddlers, siblings, and parents who need the freedom to move about during a worship service (a tinted window in the room looks into the sanctuary and a speaker makes the message audible for those inside.). Sunday school classrooms and nursery rooms contain developmentally appropriate materials and caring, qualified adults. Recently the church upgraded the playground with new equipment!

Vacation Bible School

VBS is a fun, week-long, evening event for kids Pre-K - entering 6th Grade. They will hear bible stories, sing, dance, make crafts, play games and have snacks all while learning the deep love of their Savior, Jesus Christ. We believe this week is a powerful week in the life of a child as they have the opportunity to ask Jesus into their heart. This year's VBS was a blast! Stay tuned for details on VBS 2025.
