What We Do / F.A.Q.'s

Mission:
Our Mission is to help families raise BUILT UP kids. A BUILT UP kid hasn’t JUST met Jesus. A BUILT UP kid knows Jesus, walks with Jesus, lives Jesus, and Leaks Jesus. Trinity Kids exists to supplement families’ efforts to disciple their children as followers of Christ. Trinity Kids aims to resource families as they raise up children who choose to surrender their lives under the Word & pursue God with their heads & hearts. Trinity Kids seeks to create an environment that encourages a joyful & steadfast pursuit of God. 
Do you have classes during both services?
BIG RAPIDS CAMPUS:
1st Service: Nursery for birth-36 months
2nd Service: Infant/Toddler Nurseries and Preschool - 4th grade classes
(Note: 5th/6th grade class is part of the youth ministries.)

NEWAYGO CAMPUS:
Infant/Toddler Nursery available for the entire service. We invite the Pre-K through 5th Grade children to join us for the first part of service (worship songs and prayer), and then, just before the sermon time, we pray for and release them for their lessons in Trinity Kids. 
What if my child wants me during service?
BIG RAPIDS CAMPUS:
If your child needs you during service the number printed on your child check out tag will appear on the small screen located near the front of the room during service.
How do I know my child will be safe?
We take your children's safety seriously. All of our children's workers go through a screening process which involves background checks (adults), training, and references. Each class team has a minimum of two adults. In addition, the Guides (greeters) at the entrance of the children's wing monitor all who enter and exit. Trinity also has a trained volunteer security team during each service.
What if my child has food allergies?
When you fill out the initial registration form, you will be asked if your child has any allergies. A child's allergies will print on their name tag. We always encourage verbally notifying your classroom team leaders if you any concerns.
What other programs/resources are available?
We believe families are tasked with discipling their kids. With that in mind, we seek to resource parents
  • Parent resource library and Kids library in the kid's wing
  • Right Now Media
  • A weekly email is sent to all preschool and elementary parents with tools to help families continue the faith conversation started in Sunday's class all week long. Not subscribed? Sign-up here!

Your First Visit

Big Rapids Campus

At the Big Rapids Campus, we suggest parking in the East lot. When you enter the East doors, you will see the Trinity Kids welcome area on your right.

On your first visit to Trinity Kids, our welcome desk folk will help you get your children registered. Fill out the first time registration form before you come, or fill out a paper form when you arrive. Our welcome folks will show you how our check-in system works and get your name tags and pick-up cards.

Your preschool and elementary children will spend part of their time in their classrooms and come together in a larger setting for bible teaching and worship, then back to their classrooms for activities based on the Bible story. You will pick up your child in their classrooms.

We encourage you to come a little early to take a look around and show your children where you will be to help them adjust to this new environment. If you would like to visit the classroom to help your child adjust, we will give you a visitor lanyard. Your child is welcome to sit with you in service if you prefer. We have bags with coloring pages and activities available on racks by the Trinity Kids entrance.
(*responses submitted after 8:30 am on Sunday may not be seen)

Newaygo Campus

At the Newaygo Campus, we currently offer Infant/Toddler Nursery throughout the entire service. We invite the Pre-K through 5th Grade children to join us for the first part of service (worship songs and prayer), and then, just before the sermon time, we pray for and release them for their lessons in Trinity Kids.

Our family room is also equipped with a TV that streams whatever is happening in the sanctuary, in case parents would prefer to take their young ones out for a bit to be able to move around a little more.

Children are also welcome to stay for the whole service, if parents prefer. We have coloring pages and sermon notes for kids always available. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us! We look forward to worshipping with your family soon!
