GRACE NEWS
Grace Church of the Nazarene LOVES kids! We offer several ministries designed
to reach kids with the love of Jesus!
GRACE CHRISTIAN ACADEMY
Grace Church offers a fully staffed and state accredited childcare ministry for
children ages 12 months to 4 years/Pre-K, complete with ABEKA curriculum for
our students. GCA is open Monday-Friday from 7AM-6PM. Please contact our
director, Sarah Webb, at gca@chattanoogagrace.com or call 842-7462 for more
information.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
We believe that kids thrive in an exciting small group setting too! Join us each week
at 9:45AMfor discipleship training for all ages!
WEE KIDS
During our morning worship service each week, children ages 3-5 years have their
own worship time in our Main Building Room 103 with songs, activities, and a
Bible story!
GRACE KIDS' CHURCH
Every Sunday morning at 10:50AM, kids ages 6-12 (1st -6th grades) gather in our kid
-friendly worship area in our Main Building Room 111.
CARAVAN
Pointing Kids in the Direction of Christ! Caravan is a weekly kids club committed
to the physical, social, mental, and spiritual growth of children. It uses an active,
hands-on learning approach to help kids discover, develop, experience, and
grow. This program is designed for children in first through sixth grade. Grace
Church's Caravan will kickoff again in September!
CHILDREN'S BIBLE QUIZZING
What is Children's Bible Quizzing?Children's Bible Quizzing is a Bible study for
children ages 6 through 12 (USA grades 1-6). It is important to help children know
what the Bible says so they can demonstrate biblical teachings in real life situations.
Quizzing also teaches children about God. In Children's Bible Quizzing, each child
challenges himself or herself to reach award levels. In this approach, children quiz
against a base of knowledge, not each other. The multiple-choice method of
competition allows every child to answer every question. This approach makes it
possible for every child to score a perfect score. Visit the Connections Center for
more information about Bible Quizzing! Quiz practices begin soon!
CHILDREN'S TALENT
Grace Church showcases our kids' talents in singing, art, music, etc. in an annual
talent show! We believe every child is a gift and has talents to use .
VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Thanks to everyone who worked and supported VBS this week! Please stay
following the service for a free picnic lunch, water games, and so much fun! Parents,
thanks for sharing your children with us all week!
LIFE GROUPS
All of these groups meet each Sunday morning at 9:45-10:40am.
