Children @ The Cove

The Cove offers a variety of programs for children ages 6 weeks through 5th grade. Our mission is to assist families as they work to lay a spiritual foundation that will lead a child into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.

Cove Kids

Cove Kids is an exciting, engaging experience for children ages 6 weeks through 5th grade.  Cove Kids happens each weekend at all Cove campuses, and is available at all weekend services.

Cove Kids is designed to engage children in worship within a large group setting.  Music, prayer, and an innovative approach to the Bible story are a part of this interactive time.  Children are taught creative, age-appropriate curriculums with Bible lessons that are both developmentally and spiritually appropriate for your child, as well as fun. Children learn that Jesus loves them and wants to be their best friend. They also learn how to live a life devoted to Jesus. Find out more about Cove Kids and what you and your child can expect. 

Cove Kids is safe and secure. Team members go through a security screening process and orientation. Our computerized registration system ensures your child's safety and gets them to the classroom quickly. New families can register for computerized check-in here.  Have questions about Cove Kids?

Children's Baptism Class

Taking the Plunge is a baptism class offered periodically for children (2nd-5th grades) and their parents. In this class your child will find out what every child needs to know about sin, Jesus, faith, heaven and baptism. This class is a prerequisite for children's baptism at The Cove Church and a parent is required to attend with the child. For more information and to sign up for the class, click here.

Family & Baby Dedication

Parents wishing to participate will need to attend a First Step Class prior to the event.  This class is required for families participating in the Family & Baby Dedication, and will provide information on the commitment and what a parent's role is in dedicating your child to the Lord.
