Welcome to Children and Family Ministry

Are you new?

Welcome to TFCA!  If you are a first-time visitor, please read this for information on our registration and check-in system. If you would like to register prior to attending, please do so here. Doing this will allow you to check-in on the computer kiosks located in the Lower Narthex and Learning Center. The system will give you a sticker to place on your child and a pick-up ticket that you will use to retrieve your child at pick-up.

If you would like to register once you arrive, please come to the desk under the Children’s Ministry sign in the Lower Narthex of the Sanctuary building.  At the desk, there will be a check in form to fill out and a hand-written yellow guest tag for both you and your child.  The yellow sticker will be placed on your child – the top part with its matching number is your pick-up ticket.

Children preschool and younger proceed to their classroom in the Early Childhood Center prior to the service.  Classrooms open ten minutes before the service.

Elementary aged children, (Kindergarten through 5th Grade) begin their morning in the Worship service seated with their parents.  When announced, they will join their teachers in the back of the Sanctuary.  Teachers will walk with the children to the TFCA Learning Center on the ground level of the office building across the breezeway next door. Parents can pick up their children from their classroom after the service.  Please be sure to have your pick-up ticket with you.

Expectant Parents Ministry: Pregnancy, Adoption and Foster Care

Welcoming a little one into a home is a wonderfully exciting time as well as exhausting and challenging. In I John, we are told “Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.” (I John 3:18). For families who are expecting, have newborns or are fostering or adopting, this ministry seeks to provide support through our prayer ministry, meal delivery, letters, flowers and other support as needed. The ministry extends beyond these initial touch points and connects the families to the greater life of the church. To let us know how we can support you, or to sign up to volunteer through prayer, meals and flower deliveries, send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you!
