Ministry
Our Kids Ministry is a fun, safe, and engaging place where children can discover God’s love and build lasting foundations for life. Kids know Jesus through Bible-based lessons, hands-on learning, and experiences that spark curiosity and bring faith to life. They grow in their relationship with Him through prayer, joyful worship, Bible study, and meaningful conversations with leaders who model Christ’s love. Kids show God’s love by building friendships, welcoming others wholeheartedly, and practicing kindness and compassion every day, equipping them to live faith fully and share it generously.
Sundays at 10am
For children from birth to grade 6
Worship services begin at 10AM every Sunday, and we encourage you to arrive about 15 minutes early to check in your children. When you arrive, you’re welcome to use our dedicated kids entrance, or you can access our Kids Ministry through the main foyer. Once signed in with our trained volunteers, children will remain in the Kids Wing for the entire service. After the service, simply return to the Kids Lobby to pick up your child using your provided security code.

Be kind. Be safe.
WMBC Kids has 2 rules! Be Kind…Be Safe. Why? Because the spiritual, physical, & emotional safety of our children is very important to us at West Meadows; therefore, we implement Plan to Protect policies and procedures which ensure that anyone in a position of responsibility has been thoroughly trained & interviewed with reference & background checks conducted.
When you check in your child, you receive a name tag for your child and a parent pick up tag for you. These tags have matching identification codes. Each week, you will receive a new code upon check in. A Security Monitor checks in on WMBC Kids spaces, regularly, to ensure that everything is going smoothly.
Intermittently, we run Evacuation Drills (with notice to parents). Our record to get every child out of the building and to the Muster Point is just under 2 minutes! In case of a real emergency, parents will meet their children at the Muster Point (a large Teddy Bear sign in a field to the northeast of the building).
