Kids

Broad Street Presbyterian Church offers a fun and meaningful children’s ministry to nurture the spiritual lives of children and their families from infancy into elementary school. Our children’s ministry’s goal is to be inclusive and supportive, offering various opportunities for children to learn about faith, serve others, and build lasting friendships within the church community. Whether through weekly worship or special events, Broad Street Presbyterian Church aims to create a welcoming and nurturing environment for all children

A common question we get, is there are church nursery? – No, we have made it a priority to allow families the space to worship together by adding a family worship space and making worship more accessible to children and families. Giggles and wiggles are welcome!

Another common question is, is there Sunday School? No, not in the way you might remember. Instead, we have reimagined how kids grow in their faith and practice faith. Each month, there are will be opportunities for your children to volunteer, play, and explore the Bible either during or after church, online, and at home.

The children and youth committee wrote and approved a Gender Inclusion Statement for Children & Youth Ministry, and it was approved by the Session in 2025. It states, “At Broad Street Presbyterian Church, we believe every young person is a beloved child of God. We are committed to creating a safe, welcoming, and affirming environment where all children and youth of every gender identity and expression are fully included in the life of our church. … We recognize that gender is more complex than what can be seen or assumed. As followers of Jesus, who welcomed and affirmed those often excluded, we seek to reflect that same hospitality in our programs, policies, and practices.” Click here for the full statement and best practices we are committed to following.

Godly Play is a Montessori-based Christian formation curriculum that uses storytelling, wondering, and hands-on materials to help children explore the Bible. We use this in worship once a month and then invite children who choose to, to sneak out of worship to go upstairs to explore the story further with art, games, and more!
