Sunday School 

Every Sunday from 8:00–9:00 a.m., we host a special Kids Breakfast. It’s a wonderful time for children and youth to gather, share a meal, and start their morning together before Sunday School begins.

Sunday School begins at 9:00 a.m., with classes thoughtfully designed to engage each age group at their level of understanding. Preteens and teens meet downstairs in the Fellowship Hall for their class. Some older teen boys also choose to attend the Men’s Bible Study upstairs, where they can grow in faith alongside the men of our church community

After our Children’s Sunday School ends at 9:45 a.m., we offer additional opportunities for growth and worship.
Children’s Church (Grades 1–4) meets downstairs in the Fellowship Hall every Sunday during the sermon.

Preteens meet downstairs every other Sunday morning. On the Sundays when they are not meeting downstairs, they will join the teens and the congregation for the remainder of the service.

Having preteens and teens participate in the main service with the congregation is vital for fostering an intergenerational community, encouraging spiritual maturity, and building a lasting faith. It allows them to experience full worship, learn from adult role models, and feel valued as active members of the body of Christ—rather than simply spectators in a children’s program

The Gate Kids Ministry meets on Thursdays during the school year from 5:30–7:00 p.m. This dynamic midweek program is designed especially for children to grow in their faith in a fun, engaging, and Christ-centered environment.

Transportation is available for families who need it.
Registration for The Gate Kids Ministry must be completed separately and can be found on The Gate Ministry page or under Connect in the Twin Valley Alliance Church App. Please note that The Gate Kids Ministry registration is different from the Van Ministry page and requires its own form.
