We believe Jesus has called us to empower and equip the next generation to have a deep and growing faith. Our kids church services are focused on biblical teachings with hands-on activities that help them grow in their knowledge and faith in Jesus.

What We Teach

Every Sunday, at our church locations in Los Angeles and Nashville we offer tailored experiences for kids of all ages, using "Cross Formed Kids" Curriculum,
a catechism based kids curriculum that helps kids learn Biblical fundamentals for a life time of fruitful Bible reading.

Tinies

6 Months - 2 Years

Our kids ministry caters to children of all ages. Tinies is the place for parents to leave their little ones in the hands of trusted, patient, and nurturing team members. Tinies will experience a peaceful environment where they are surrounded by worship music, and prayer. The priority in our tinies program is to create a safe space for our youngest kiddos to be cared for and learn the love of Jesus.

Littles

3 Years - Kindergarten

Our core focus in the Littles Experience is to teach kids the love and joy of Jesus! Kids are welcomed into a warm and caring environment where they learn basic truths about the Bible through fun music, lessons, activities, and crafts.

Bigs

1st - 5th Grade

In our Bigs kids church services, our core focus is to teach kids what it means to know Jesus and have a relationship with him. We do this through a Bible-centered lesson, worship, activities, and prayer. Each month kids are introduced to a piece of scripture that all of the lessons are centered around. On our final meeting of the month, kids have the opportunity to share their memory verse for a prize!

Middle School at Cathedral – Now in Highland Park!

Middle School Crew is a dedicated space for students in grade 6th - 8th to grow in their walk with God. It takes place during our 10:30am service. Students will start by sitting together in the main service and worshipping alongside the entire congregation. Then they’ll head into their own dedicated space to open the scriptures together and hear a message designed just for them. They'll close their time together in small groups where they can connect with friends and leaders, and then have some fun playing games and connecting. 

The aim of our Middle School crew is to help shepherd and empower students to grow in Christ, belong to His church, and boldly live for the gospel.

Child Dedications

'“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace”
Numbers 6:24-26 NIV

We offer Child Dedications to all families who are members in our church. It is a beautiful part of service where our pastoral team prays over your family and child. Sign up at your location for the next dedication service.
