Is God Calling You to Serve in Kids Ministry?
One way to grow in your faith and impact the next generation is right here at Fellowship on Sunday mornings or Wednesday nights! Faith plays out in community, and we need your help raising up kids with a strong faith that will eventually guide them through a secular world even into adulthood! That all starts now with volunteers like you! All training and curriculum is provided and we have a dedicated staff team to support you. Sign up today to lead a class, or sign up as a class assistant! Visit our Serve page at fellowshipwaco.org/serve, or email shaunawillett@fellowshipwaco.org (Early Childhood) or jenniferables@fellowshipwaco.org (Elementary and LiveWires).

WEDNESDAY EVENINGS
Wednesday evening programming for Early Childhood is available during the fall and spring semesters. Fall programming will begin on Wednesday night, September 10, at 6:30 p.m. More details coming soon! Ages 4-Kindergarten participate in Joy Club. Wednesday Evening Childcare is provided for children birth-3yrs for those participating in Bible studies or serving in a Ministry role.
Our Purpose
Our desire is to create a warm, loving and safe environment for children. On your child's first visit, please visit the Fellowship Kids Welcome Desk, where you will be asked to fill out a Kids Connect card. This provides our staff and volunteers with valuable information, including any special needs your child may have. Each subsequent visit, you will need to check-in your child at one of our check-in stations or kiosks. If you have trouble with the check-in process, or trouble printing your child's tag, stop by the Fellowship Kids Check-In desk. Our volunteers will be happy to assist you!
Equipment & Safety
Cribs and equipment are kept sanitary. Childcare staff use rubber gloves for diaper changes and are required to wash hands with antibiotic soap or use hand sanitizer after wiping noses or changing diapers. For your child's care and safety, there are a minimum of two adults in every room.
How You Can Help
Please label items you bring. Include a pacifier or security item and a change of clothes (if potty training). When leaving your child, tell them in a loving voice that you are going but will soon be back. If your child continues to be upset for more than 15 minutes, we will inform you.
Health Policies
With cooperation from our parents we operate a "well-child" ministry. For the protection of all children and teachers, we cannot accept a child in the classroom with any of the following symptoms:
- fever (free for 24 hours)
- vomiting and/or diarrhea
- persistent cough or sore throat
- communicable diseases
- contagious rashes or infections
- colored discharge from nose or eyes
Promotions
- Babies in the Nursery promote based on ability to walk or the parents' preference.
- One-year-olds through grade school promote once a year in August based on the child's age by the following September 1st.
