Sundays at the Children's Building
Sundays for the youngest in your household, plus a year of events the kids look forward to. Infants through 6th grade. Meets at 9:30 and 11 AM.
Sundays at New Hope
New Hope Kids meets in the Children's Building, a separate building on the north side of campus between the parking lot and The Bridge. Infants are welcome in the nursery, and classes for walkers through 6th grade run alongside the 9:30 and 11 AM services. Same content at both hours, so you pick whichever fits your morning.
Classrooms are grouped by age. Each room has a trained team, at least two adults at all times, and a check-in tag system so kids are only released to the matching adult. There is no New Hope Kids programming at the 8 AM service; worship runs in the sanctuary at that hour.
First Sunday with us?
Quick and calm. Plan an extra ten minutes the first week so we can get you set up.
The Children's Building is a separate building on the north side of campus, between the parking lot and The Bridge. You will see signage and a greeter at the door.
The first time, we set up a quick family profile. After that, check-in takes about thirty seconds.
Same number on both. Your kid is only released to the adult with the matching tag.
Classes wrap a few minutes after the service ends. Pick up at the same door you came in.
Each classroom has at least two adults at all times. Our kids team is trained for the building and the curriculum, and is happy to chat before or after if you have questions.
Beyond Sunday
Outside of Sunday mornings, our kids team puts on a handful of evenings and afternoons across the year, each one shaped a little differently.
A periodic family night, usually outdoors when the weather works, built around play, food, and an invitation to bring a friend. A midweek series in the fall for elementary kids, a small story arc that builds week over week with crafts, snacks, and a Bible track. A full week each summer, mornings only, of music, Bible stories, crew games, and outdoor energy. The marquee event of the year. A few whole-church gatherings where kids show up in force alongside everyone else (community potluck in the spring, fall festival in October).
The calendar below shows what's actually next.

Year-round, weeknight
Two Christ-centered scout-style programs hosted by New Hope as two separate troops that share the same number: Trail Life Troop CA-4620 and American Heritage Girls Troop CA-4620. Outdoor adventure, character formation, service, and friendships, year-round on a weeknight. They meet the same evening, so a household with both boys and girls can drop everyone off in one trip.
Outdoor adventure, character formation, leadership. The national Christian alternative to traditional scouting. New Hope hosts Trail Life Troop CA-4620 (one of two separate troops on campus that share the CA-4620 number).
More about Trail Life
Faith, service, life skills, and friendships built around a strong Christian foundation. New Hope's AHG Troop CA-4620 is its own separate troop with its own leadership; it meets the same evening as Trail Life Troop CA-4620 so families with both boys and girls can drop off in one trip.
