We do not offer Children’s Church over the summer time.

Nursery is available for 2 years old and under at 9:30 AM and 10:45 AM.

Preschool through 5th Graders will check in at the Gathering Kids kiosk before 9:30 AM to get their name tags then go into Sunday School. Preschoolers will have their Bible story lesson and activities. Elementary students will have a snack then watch their Bible story videos, do their activities, and have discussion, and pray together. Parents of those with K-5th grade will pick up their kids before service. Pre-K and Nursery kids can stay.

Children’s Church is available during the 10:45 AM service. They will dismiss just before the sermon to go to Children’s Church. Grades K-5 will have Large Group Bible Story Time together. At the conclusion of service, children will be picked up from their respective rooms.

The Gathering Student Ministry exists to provide the students of our church, schools and community an opportune setting to discover and engage in the Gospel of Jesus through fellowship, Bible study, discipleship, and missions opportunities.

On Sunday evenings starting at 6:30 pm, The Well is a gathering for Students grades 6-12. Every other month, the location rotates between the Connection Cafe at the Noland Road Campus and the Basement at our Plaza Heights Campus.

Likewise on Sunday mornings students have an opportunity to be a part of small group Sunday School at 9:30 AM at each campus. Small groups are divided by grade, 7th-8th, 9th-10th and 11th-12th.

Small Groups are a vital part of The Gathering’s growth. We offer on campus bible studies along with our worship services, as well as several off campus home bible studies that you can be a part of. If you are interested in getting more information or joining a small group, contact Pastor Matthias Rosbrugh or Nate Jones, and we would love to talk to you about options for getting involved.

Special Connections focuses on nurturing physical, emotional, and spiritual development of the local special needs community. Through investing time and love in class members and their families, we share Jesus so they might come to know Him as their Savior.

Sunday morning Bible class meets at 9:30 AM at the Noland Campus, for ages 13 to adult.

This ministry offers monthly socials for teens and adults with special needs the second Saturday of each month from February to May and August to November. The event is held from 7:00-9:00 PM in the Connection Cafe at the church. Volunteers play board and video games with members and the evening ends with karaoke. This free event is open to participants ages 13 to adult.
