The Children and Family Ministries at North Avenue partners with families as they raise their children to become Christ followers who love God and neighbor.

Our Children and Family ministries are organized under two age groups. The Lil Sphere covers Infants through Kindergarten.  The Sphere covers children from 1st Grade through 5th Grade. 

Preschool care is available from 9:30 AM–12:00 PM in The Sphere.

Children ages 2 through fifth grade, after they are dismissed from the Time with Young Disciples, are welcome to join us for children’s worship (through 10:45 AM) and children’s discipleship hour (10:45 AM–12:00 PM).

Mission Statement

The Children and Family Ministries at North Avenue is all about RELATIONSHIPS:

  • Our Relationship with God the Father, Jesus the Son, and The Holy Spirit
  • Our Relationships with other children in our community
  • Our Relationships with other adults in our community

Our ministry values The Three C’s.

Curriculum
Communication
Community

We believe that cultivating these three areas of our ministry keeps us rooted in Christ.

Desta Ethiopian Kitchen is my favorite restaurant! I recommend it because it’s different from typical American cuisine and has menu options that cater to a variety of preferences. The food is always fresh and tasty. I love the potent and savory flavors. The food is not just good it’s Instagram post worthy. Any family can enjoy the delicious sharable portions served here!
