If you’re new with us, please stop at the Family Visitor Center, located at the very center of the Creyts campus. We’d be delighted to give you a tour, answer any questions you may have, and assist you with checking your child into his or her room.

Elementary

For grades 1-5, using games, fun characters, prizes, music, and creative lessons, children grow in their knowledge of the Bible and in relationship with God and others. They are not too young to learn that God has an incredible plan for their lives!

Thank you for helping to keep our classrooms a healthy place!

If for any reason your child is not able to stay in class, we will notify you using our paging system. There will be a new number assigned to your child every time he or she checks in that prints on the tags. One tag goes on the child and the other stays with the responsible adult. You can reference this tag to compare the number to what shows on the displays in the sanctuary.

At Mount Hope, we believe children are a gift from God. Just as Jesus blessed the children in Mark 10, we follow in the same manner to bless your children in front of our Mount Hope family and pray that God will direct their steps, even from a young age.

Child dedications happen the second Sunday in March, June, September, and December during the 10:30 service at the Creyts campus. There is a brief orientation from 10:00-10:20, when you will have a chance to meet the Mount Hope Kids staff and volunteers, receive a gift, and have a free family photo taken that will be emailed to you.
