Show them Jesus!
Coming alongside families to show Jesus to our children so that they and their families might be drawn to trust, worship, and obey Him.
If you have any questions for the Children’s Ministry Team, we would love to hear from you at ecpckids@eastcobbpres.org.

Nursery (Infants - 3s)
The youngest among us are warmly welcomed at East Cobb Presbyterian Church! We offer nurseries for infants through age 3 during the Sunday morning worship service. Children may be dropped off beginning at 10:15 a.m. We know that when you understand your kids are being lovingly cared for, you can focus your hearts and minds more fully on corporate worship. If your infant will be joining you in the worship service, we have an Infant Care Room available at the rear of the sanctuary if you would like some privacy to feed or care for your child.
Gospel Kids
During the school year, our Sunday morning program for students in pre-k (4yrs old by Sept 1) through 5th grade provides an opportunity for your kids to worship and learn alongside their peers in fun and engaging ways. We encourage our families to go to worship together at 10:30am, and then children are invited to join us for Gospel Kids during the offering (around 10:45am).
This program runs from August - May.
Foundations
Fourth and Fifth graders learn why the gospel is relevant to their lives, are equipped to identify the lies of our culture and counter them with truth, and get answers to tough questions about the Christian faith in the safe and loving context of our Foundations discipleship class. These lessons will take them beyond a head knowledge of the gospel and challenge them to think deeply about what the truth of the Scripture and the person and work of Jesus means for their lives.
This program runs from August - April.
WHAT WE’RE LEARNING THIS WEEK
Gospel Kids - We have finished Gospel Kids for the year and will return to our Gospel Story curriculum in August. For the months of June and July we will have a Summer Gospel Kids program for Pre-K to 3rd grade. During the summer we will use the Jesus Story Book curriculum.

Summer Discipleship
During the summer months, our students who are finishing PreK rising 3rd grade are invited to join us for our summer discipleship program during the worship service. We encourage our families to go to worship together at 10:30am, and then children are invited to join us for Gospel Kids during the offering (around 10:45am). Students who are finishing up 4th and 5th grades join us for the full worship service.

TINY SYSTEMATICS WORKBOOK
This workbook is designed for ages 5-12, and we recommend it as a helpful resource for our rising fourth and fifth graders who are worshipping alongside us on Sundays this summer. We have a limited number of workbooks available. You can pick up your copy from the Children's Ministries office at East Cobb Presbyterian Church after purchase.
From the publisher: Each lesson in this 95+ page workbook is designed to teach your child rich, biblical theology in an engaging way. Alongside each section of teaching is an activity to engage them in the process as they learn more of who God is through studying his Word. And each day has a Memory Challenge in which they are encouraged to recall a simple concept in response to that day's lesson. Read more here.
