Living Vine Church

Love God. Love Others. Serve Napa.

Discovery Kids

Discovery Kids

Our community deeply values children and their participation in our worship gatherings. We invite children of all ages to worship alongside their parents in the main worship gathering. During the teaching portion of the service (about 25 minutes into the service), the children are dismissed to go and engage in a lesson tailored to them. This will often include a Bible passage, craft and snack.

Once a month, we participate in Communion as a church. We invite our children to return during this time, and if they desire, participate in Communion with the entire church. If the child is not old enough to participate, or isn’t ready to take this step, a simple blessing will be offered.

Should the parent feel more comfortable with their child staying in the main gathering, they are more than welcome to have them stay. However, during the course of the service, if the younger ages have a difficult time or become a distraction to others, the parent is welcome to step out for a few minutes, gather themselves, and return.
If a nursery is preferred, the parents are welcome to leave their child in the care of our carefully screened and safety certified nursery workers. Our nursery is open to children ages 1 month- 4 years of age.

Safety

As a church, our highest priority is the safety of children while they are in our care. Living Vine partners with NazSafe, screens all volunteers, and holds our volunteers to the highest safety standards.
