Sunday Mornings at NEXT
We are meeting in person and live steaming on Facebook at 10:00 am
Worship
We can’t wait. We will be singing with our worship teams live and without masks for the first time in two years. However, we recognize that many will want to continue to wear masks, and we support that decision.
Like many churches, community groups and businesses, you can expect us to be doing some creative and innovative things as we figure out what church looks like post-pandemic. You can be sure Jesus will still be our focus, and our style will be informal and emphasize community connection.
Liturgy
We like to keep things somewhat traditional around here. While we’re definitely an evangelical church, we love to anchor our Sunday services in some of the meaningful rhythms of the Church calendar and elements of liturgy. Come along for the ride and walk through some scripture readings, prayers and giving back as a community before we send the kids to their own NEXT Kids Community programming.
Wisdom
Sit back and listen as Pastor Wendy walks us through a piece of the Bible. Gain a deeper understanding of the scripture and learn how you can apply its lessons in your life.
NEXT Kids
Sign-In
When you come in, we ask you sign your kids in at the NEXT Kids tables in the foyer and help them make a name tag.
Kids will be dismissed to NEXT kids and accompanied by workers from the service. Volunteers will come find you in the service if your child needs you.
Our amazing (well-trained and pre-screened) volunteers are eager to teach your kids about Jesus in a way that makes sense to them.
Children under the age of 2 are not allowed to go to nursery except with a parent who stays physically distance as per the AHS faith community COVID-19 guidelines
NEXT Kids Programs
Nursery (Infants to 2-years-old)
Nursery is available for babies and toddlers up to 2-years of age. Our nursery has clean, age-appropriate toys and lots of hands to help.
Sprouts Class (Ages 2 - 6)
Are in our children’s church space. The focus here is a story from the Bible, play stations and crafts with a teacher who knows that kids need to feel the love of our community by being given focused attention and a play focused learning opportunity. We want them to know that Jesus loves them, God created them and they matter in the world.
Plants and Pillars (Grade 2 to 6)
These students have also spend some time in age appropriate exploration of the Bible. We want to help get them ready to read and understand the Bible for themselves. Their class is shorter and ends with play in the gym
We know that our Grade 4 – 6 kids are ready to bring faith to life and we offer them the opportunity to help with younger kids. They are eager to serve and make a difference and we don’t wait until they are teens to help them understand how God has wired and gifted them.
