Kids

Preschool: 3 years (by 9/1/25) - PreK/Transition
Elementary: Kindergarten - Fifth Grade

KINGSLAND | Preschool & Elementary children should check-in through the Children's Ministry Lobby on the east side of campus, and will proceed to the classroom number printed on their nametag. Infants, toddlers, and younger preschoolers should check-in through the Nursery, located off the courtyard in the heart of our campus.

WEST | Preschool & Elementary children should check-in through the Children's Desk on the left side of the lobby, and will proceed to the classroom number printed on their nametag.

Preschool and Elementary classes will gather and begin in their respective classrooms with some social time. Next, they will hear or watch the weekly Bible Story and enjoy a time of worship. Finally, they will participate in Small Group time to build upon their faith through activities and age-appropriate conversations. 

We feel it is important for all children to experience both large and small group time within the time we have them each week. For the children who attend both hours, each hour has slightly different activities, so the Bible lesson and Bottom Line are reinforced while not feeling too repetitive to the children. Please reach out to the Children's Ministry Staff if you have questions.

KINGSLAND | Preteens should be checked-in through the Children's Lobby on the east side of campus near the large parking lot.

WEST | Preteens should be checked-in at the Children's Ministry desk on the left side of lobby and then proceed to Room 7.

We meet with 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders from 6:30PM -7:30 PM most weeks during the school year. Our 3rd grade students will be learning how to use their very own Bible that was presented to them by the church. Our 4th-5th graders will dive deeper during their Bible Study time by while continuously refreshing their Bible skills/literacy as well. Studies are led by staff but need adult and teen volunteers to provide support.

Each week family dinner is provided in Lott Hall (Kingsland Campus) and the Worship Center (West Campus) from 5:30PM - 6:15PM

KINGSLAND | Infants and toddlers should be checked-in through the Nursery Lobby (between the Sanctuary and Contemporary worship spaces).

WEST | Infants and toddlers should be checked-in through the Children's desk and then proceed to Room 1 or 2 (as written on nametag).

Our incredible Nursery Staff will greet you at your classroom and bring your child into their classroom (infants 8+ weeks, toddlers). Guardians will have the opportunity to fill out a sheet of care instructions regarding feeding, naps, etc. Please label diapers, bottles, cups, bags, etc. with your child's name.

We sing approximately once a month in both our worship venues on the Kingsland Campus, present a Christmas Musical in December, and an End of the Year Concert in May. During our weekly rehearsals, we not only sing songs, but we also work on rhythms, play singing games, create a seasonal craft, and so much more. Please note the younger singers rehearse Wednesday evenings and older singers on Sunday afternoon. Be sure to register for the correct rehearsal!

The Alleluia Ringers is our children/youth handbell choir. We will rehearse every Sunday afternoon and play in worship throughout the year. This choir is open to ages third grade and up. We will learn how to play handbells and read music. Come ring with us!

We have a children’s choir program for ages 4 years old through fifth grade. They meet each week on Thursday nights during the school year at 6 PM on the West Campus to rehearse and learn about sharing God’s love through music. This choir is led by amazing volunteers! Be sure to register your child at the link below or contact Nicole Murphy.

The Acolyte Ministry at St. Peter’s UMC is designed for children and students in 3rd grade through High School. It is intended not only to allow acolytes to serve in our Kingsland Campus traditional services, and both West Campus contemporary services, but also to learn more about and experience the different aspects of our liturgy while being a vital part of worship. 

There are up to two acolytes per service and students can serve at 9, 10:30, or both services.
