FOR PARENTS

Preschool, Children's, and Youth Ministry

will open for in-person ministry on Sunday, September 20th.

​

PRESCHOOL AND CHILDREN'S MINISTRY will be held in the Family Life Center. PLEASE be sure to register your child BEFORE Sunday morning so that we are able to plan in advance. 

Our Family Life Center will be Fully Sanitized. All children and adults must wear a mask. We are encouraging social distancing of 6ft unless seated. Once children are seated and properly socially distanced they can take their mask down.

​

A snack will be served in prepared packages with individual bottles of water. If your child is not potty trained we will have clear communication channels for a diaper change.

If you have a child under the age of 2 we have a very nice Mother’s Room in the Sanctuary that is fully sanitized.

​

YOUTH MINISTRY will be available in The ARK after worship is complete in the Sanctuary. PLEASE be sure to register BEFORE Sunday morning so that we are able to plan in advance. All children and adults must wear a mask.

Preschool & Infants Ministry

NURSERY & PRESCHOOL

​

At The Tabernacle, we aim to instill a desire for life long worship with our youngest worshipers. Our goal is to provide a safe and caring place where kids can begin learning about God and interact with God in a kid-friendly, safe environment.

​

SUNDAY MORNINGS: Our babies to four-year-old preschoolers are cared for by a loving staff in our licensed day care facility. We follow the best practices for child care safety and early development. The preschool building is staffed for the Worship Service at 10:00 a.m. Our preschool worship is filled with Bible stories, life application stories, games, and large group worship with singing, dancing, and scripture memorization. We have small group breakouts to continue the lesson theme and provide continued hands-on interaction.

We will be introducing a lot of effective methods to ignite the fire and keep it burning. We’ll be having themed message series and related dramas, more awesome times of prayer and worship, deeper classroom times, monthly themed parties/events, outreaches, new check-in system, video announcements, a parent’s resource board, and of course, lots of FUN!

Youth Ministry

THE ARK

​

​

The Tabernacle Youth Ministry is cultivating a holy community that is welcoming, embracing, and training hungry teens to live with Passion for Jesus. Our culture not only welcomes but invites all into the ARK community to do life together.

​

At the Tabernacle Youth Ministry, you can expect to grow deeper in your faith in Christ while having fun and making great friendships in a community of loving people. Each year we host 2 youth retreats, a mission trip, Deeper Walk house meetings, Invasion Nights, and Bible studies.

MOPS

MOTHER'S OF PRESCHOOLERS

​

​

​

MOPS is a grassroots movement that believes moms are world influencers… We believe that incubating hearts and giving just-because-hugs can change the course of history. That’s why we connect moms all over the world to a community of women, in their own neighborhoods, who meet together to laugh, cry, and embrace the journey of motherhood. MOPS groups are rallying women to be more honest, to feel more equipped, and to find our identity by journeying alongside one another.

​

MOPS stands for Mothers of Preschoolers, and by preschoolers, we mean kiddos from birth through kindergarten. We know it’s a little confusing so let’s just stick with “MOPS.” We are moms, and we believe that better moms make a better world. MOPS at The Tabernacle meets the 2nd and 4th of each month, with exceptions near holidays.  We provide childcare adjacent to our MOPS meeting place for children thru kindergarten age and use the Moppets program.

​

We meet from 9:30 – 11:30 am in the Family Life Center on our campus.  A typical meeting begins with brunch, followed by a teaching and small group discussion time. We typically end with a craft or community project. If you have further questions or would like to join us, please contact Cara Sobkowiak at (716) 675-2888.
