Child Protection Policy

We take the safety of the children entrusted to us very seriously. In fact, this is something we believe we need to be 100% right on all the time. Therefore, we have policies in place to help make this a safe place physically, emotionally, and spiritually for your child. Each of our volunteers has filled out an application and voluntarily submitted themselves to a criminal background check. We have other policies in place as well that you can read more about in our volunteer handbook. We do not tolerate bullying of any kind. We will talk with a child and their parents if we suspect bullying is occuring. We want to ensure a safe environment for spiritual learning to take place. We have greeters in place in each of the Promiseland classrooms to make sure your child gets to the right place and has his/her nametag. We would appreciate it if you would promptly pick up your child following the worship service or connect with their small group leader if other arrangements have been made. Thank you for your help in making this a safe place for every child!

Discipline Policy

We want coming to church to be the best part of every kid's week. Therefore, it's necessary to have a discipline policy in place that demonstrates love as well as enforcing proper behavior. Please read the Discipline Policy document for a complete description of our policy.
