Children's Ministries
Just imagine…
· A place where all children, including those with special needs, will have fun, feel safe, loved, and excited enough to bring their friends and family each week.
· Where multimedia techniques and interactive storytelling are used to teach Biblical principles and how to live out God’s word in everyday life.
· Where children are part of a small group of peers who are led by loving and encouraging adults who are passionate about influencing the next generation of Christ followers.
· Where families have a partner as faith-builders in the home.
Can you imagine this place?
This is Fairview at River Club, a campus of Fairview Baptist Church.
When your child arrives….
When your elementary age child arrives in the children’s department downstairs, they will be greeted at our welcome center by one of our children’s ministry volunteers. These leaders have completed a training program, been carefully screened, and are committed to the safety of your child. Our easy registration process makes it quick, simple, and safe to get your child plugged in with their small group.
What your child will experience...
· Welcome time: After check-in children will go to their peer group classroom where they will be engaged in interactive activities with their leader and no more than 10 children.
· Plug-in: This time is designed to introduce children to the weekly topic in a setting that gives them individualized attention from their small group leader and plenty of interaction with a small group of peers.
· Power up: Engaging time of worship in a large group setting that includes music, prayer, and an innovative approach to the Bible story.
· Catch on: Small group time focused on understanding how the day’s topic applies to the children. The group will discuss real-life experiences and participate in a variety of activities that appeal to different learning styles.
Classes
Special Needs: We are committed to meeting the needs of every child who comes through our door. We offer a classroom specifically designed and equipped for children of varying cognitive and physical disabilities. The specially trained staff will work with their individual needs in a positive, safe atmosphere. For those who are comfortable in large group settings, we provide a buddy to aid in their morning learning experience.
Kids Quest
Our Leaders
All of the leaders in our children’s ministry have been through an orientation, background check, and interview with children’s ministry team. They have been through training for the specific age group they minister to and they are also involved in active training opportunities as provided by the children’s ministry department. We firmly believe that as soon as you stop learning you stop leading.
Nursery
At Fairview we love families. If you wish to keep your infant with you in worship, we invite you to do so. There is a crying room adjacent to the worship center where you may tend to the needs of your child and remain part of the worship service. We also have a nursing room available in the baby nursery.

For parents who would prefer to leave the care of their child in the hands of highly committed and trained volunteers, we have an inviting nursery at the end of the hall.
Preschool
Classrooms for toddlers – 4 years old are available to the right of the worship area. In our preschool department we focus on introducing God and modeling His love through hands-on activities, fun songs, and engaging Bible stories.
