Nursery (ages 0 - 2) : a staffed, teaching nursery is located out the auditorium doors to the right.
Jesus' Farm (ages 3, potty trained - Kindergarten) : Jesus' Farm is our pre-school program, offered during both hours, to help children know that God loves and cares for us. Every activity is geared to the child's learning level. It is located out the auditorium doors to the left. Your child may be checked in at the farm wagon.
rEVOLve (grades 1 - 5) : rEVOLve is our elementary age program located in the lower level of the fellowship hall. Bring your child down at 9:00AM for Sunday School. During Worship, children sit with their parents for the first part of service. Following congregational singing/worship songs, children are dismissed as a group to head to the lower level and enter a time of worship and an environment to develop a relationship with Jesus Christ through different activities.
Where will my kids go?
On Sundays, Ripley offers Sunday School classes at 9:00AM and worship at 10:15AM. Worship is filled with a mix of contemporary and traditional music, technology, and relevant messages. Our services typically last 75 minutes.
What is a Sunday Morning like?
Communion is available to all believers in Christ. Our tradition is to eat the bread and to take the cup as it is passed. As a guest, you are not expected to make an offering. Offerings are made by out members as part of their commitment to God and the church.
How do you do Communion and Offering?
Many members participate in a Bible School class at 9:00AM and then worship at 10:15AM. Whether you are new to the faith or someone with many Bible classes under your belt, there is a class perfect for you. In addition to topical Bible classes, there are classes geared to different age groups such as middle school students, young adults, and mature adults.
