At Mount Hope Church, we are honored to partner with parents in raising up the next generation to know, love, and follow Jesus. Our Mount Hope Kids ministry is built on a culture of joy, safety, biblical truth, and hosting His presence in a way children can understand and experience. We offer age-appropriate classrooms for Nursery (infants–2 years), Preschool (3–K years), and Elementary (1st–5th grade), each designed to engage kids at their developmental level through worship, interactive teaching, and hands-on activities.

 

Check-in is quick and secure at our Kids Welcome area located in the main lobby, where our team will assist you and answer any questions. Every team member is background-checked, trained, and passionate about creating a safe, Spirit-filled environment where every child feels seen, valued, and encouraged. From the moment your family arrives to the time you pick up your child, you can expect excellence, intentional care, and a ministry that supports you as the primary spiritual influence in your child’s life.

SAFETY

At Mount Hope Kids, your child’s safety is our top priority. All of our team members are carefully screened, trained, and CPR-certified, ensuring they are prepared to care for your child in every situation. Our classrooms are secure, with check-in and check-out protocols in place to protect every child, and our spaces are monitored by cameras so parents can have peace of mind while they attend service. Each team member follows strict safety procedures, including ratios, emergency protocols, and health guidelines, to create a safe, nurturing, and Spirit-filled environment. From arrival to pick-up, we are committed to providing a ministry where children can learn, grow, and encounter Jesus in a secure and protected setting.

WHAT WE TEACH

At Mount Hope Kids, our teaching is intentional, Bible-based, and designed to help children know God personally and grow in their identity in Christ. Our curriculum is age-appropriate, engaging, and interactive, blending Scripture, storytelling, worship, games, and hands-on activities that make biblical truths come alive. Lessons are presented in a way that encourages curiosity, participation, and spiritual response, helping kids not just learn about God, but experience Him. Each week builds on a foundation of God’s Word, character development, and practical application, equipping children to live out their faith confidently at home, school, and beyond. Our goal is to create an environment where learning is fun, meaningful, and Spirit-led, so every child leaves inspired and empowered to follow Jesus.
