"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:6 (NIV)
We take the call of raising children to walk with the Lord very seriously and want to ensure their safety, both spiritually and physically. For this reason, every Children’s Church teacher and helper as well as all nursery workers have been interviewed, vetted, and have an up-to-date Vulnerable Sector Check.
Children’s Church takes place every Sunday as the message is being given by the pastor or speaker. After “Kids Corner” where a short thought, lesson, or idea is shared with the kids at the front of the church the kids are dismissed to go to the classrooms.
If you are considering or planning to attend our church for the first time and would like more information or would like to request someone to guide your child to their classroom please reach out at (705) 246-2081 or at sjifmc@islandfmc.ca
Nursery (Infant – Junior Kindergarten)
Our church nursery is equipped with a variety of toys to entertain the children, snacks to feed them, as well as places for kids to sleep. Please inform the nursery workers of any dietary restrictions or any other relevant information about caring for your child. Parents are welcome to remain in the Nursery until their children feel comfortable.
Junior Children’s Church (Junior Kindergarten – Grade 2)
All kids from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 2 are welcome Junior Children’s Church where topics are simplified and memory passages are often shorter.
Senior Children’s Church (Grades 3-6)
Kids attending grades 3 to 6 are welcome to Senior Children’s Church where even more depth is given to the topics and the kids are encouraged to memorize even more scriptures.
