Children

We love children at Christ Church! Through relevant and meaningful discipleship programs, to inter-generational worship, quality after-school and holiday camps, and fun sports programs, we want to help children grow on their journey to know, love and serve Jesus Christ. 

 

If you have questions or want to volunteer with the program, please contact Hazem Farraj, director of children's ministry,  954.771.7300 or by email.

 

Nursery

The Christ Church nursery on the Fort Lauderdale Campus is open to children under age 3 on Sunday mornings. The nursery is located in the building just east of the Fort Lauderdale Sanctuary. If you have questions, please email Louise Wood or call her at 954.773.7700. 

 

Crosswalk

Most Sunday mornings, children age 3 through 5th grade start the 9am worship service with their families. After a children's message, the children are invited to the second floor of the gym building for Kids Worship in the Walkway Room. Crosswalk is a discipleship program for children ages 3 through fifth grade. Christ Church is eager to be your partner in helping the children in your life grow as disciples of Jesus.

 

Sit Together Sunday

On the first Sunday of each month and special holy days, elementary school children worship with the families. It's an opportunity for children to share in the practices of faith, like communion and the celebrations of Easter, and share those occasions with family members. Many Sundays, children will be invited to participate as greeters, ushers and liturgists (11am service). Preschoolers will be invited to Crosswalk after the children's message on Sit Together Sundays.

First-time Guests

We love having guests and want your first experience at Crosswalk to be awesome! The beginning of your path in Crosswalk depends on your family's worship time.

 

If your family worships at the 9am praise service...

Check-in your child as you enter the gym. Children will begin the worship hour with their families. After the children's message, children will be led upstairs to Kids Worship, where they will participate in age-appropriate activities related to the day's message. 

 

If your family worships at the 11am traditional service...

Children who arrive for the 11am worship service are invited to worship with their families or to check out the nursery, which is located in the building east of the Fort Lauderdale Sanctuary.

 

Child & youth protection

Christ Church makes every effort to creative a safe, protected environment for our children and youth. All adult staff and volunteers who who work with children must be fingerprinted and screened and take part in Child/Youth Protection Policy training each year. If you have questions about the Child/Youth Protection Policy, contact Jeff McNeil, director of operations, by email or by phone, 954.771.7300 ext. 250.
