Children with Special Needs
We offer a “buddy” program for children with special needs and can provide a one-on-one buddy to children who need assistance in the classroom. The buddy program is available during our Sunday morning 10am service. Our goal is to integrate every child but we ask that you contact us before your first visit so we can best serve your child.

For Your Kids

At Waterstone, we create safe, fun, and faith-filled environments where kids can grow in their understanding of who Jesus is and how much they’re loved.

Early Childhood (Infant - Kindergarten)
In our Nursery Hallway (Infants to 3-years), young children are busy forming their first impressions about everything, including God. We desire to provide a safe, caring environment where the youngest children know that they are loved. We begin our Bible lesson and activities with 2-year-olds that include fun activities, crafts, and music.

Preschool & Elementary (3 years - 4th Grade)
Our 3-year-olds through 4th graders experience age-aligned programming each week that has both large group and small group components. We use “The Gospel Project for Kids” to lead a chronological study through God’s Word. Kids learn together how to apply God’s word to their lives and live out a vibrant faith and passion for Jesus. Kids are divided into age/grade-appropriate classrooms where they experience dynamic worship, teaching, and application activities.

Kids with Special Needs
We offer a “buddy” program for kids with special needs with integration being our goal. For more information about this program please connect with our Kids admin prior to your first visit so that we can make your child’s experience with Waterstone Kids an amazing one!

We offer a Saturday evening service at 5pm. Kids 2-years and under can check into their classroom before service. Kids 3-years old through 4th grade can be checked in and then attend worship with their parents. After worship kids will be dismissed to our kids staff to experience a Bible story presentation that includes life application activities.

5th and 6th grade

In our 5th and 6th grade group, The Bridge, we work together to connect with God through worship, prayer, and exploring the Bible. We also grow as a community through small groups, fun activities, and serving others. Our goal is to help our kids take ownership of their faith and live it out in a way that transforms their lives and spreads love to those around them.  

During the school year, we gather on Wednesdays for Midweek. In this place we dive into meaningful discussions about God, the Bible, our faith, and how to navigate the world around us. If you're a student eager to grow deeper in your faith, this is the place for you!

September - May, Wednesdays, 6-8pm
Dinner $5, Room 213E 

Throughout the school year, Movie Night happens the first Friday of every month! We’ll have dinner, games, and time to hang with friends. It’s always a blast, so grab your crew and join the fun! 

September - May, First Fridays, 5:30-8:30pm, Cost $7
