CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
We love kids and families at Maple Grove Covenant! We want kids to have fun taking each new step in loving, knowing, and following Jesus on their own faith journey. We invite kids up through fifth grade to join us for a variety of opportunities on Sunday mornings year-round, Wednesday evenings during the school year, and for other special occasional and seasonal events throughout the year. We also seek to encourage and equip families with tools and support so that they can...
GO - sharing their faith with others.
LOVE the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind, & strength.
LIVE in freedom and community.
SUNDAY MORNINGS: Kids grove
10:30 AM I YEAR-ROUND
- Early Childhood (Birth through 5 Years). We want kids to be excited to meet God—to know that God made them, loves them, wants to be their friend, and has a plan and purpose for them. They do that through interactive Bible lessons, hands-on activities, upbeat worship songs, and lots of play with friends. Children up through 2 years are welcome in the nursery, and 3-5 year-olds are invited to “Mighty Maples.”
- Elementary (K-5): His Kids Church. This is an upbeat experience where kids learn to live out their faith and actively participate in Bible stories and lessons through both large group and small group experiences. Kids typically start with their parents in worship, then move to their classrooms where they consistently hear about making wise choices, trusting God no matter what, and treating others the way God wants them to be treated.
WEDNESDAY EVENINGS: KIDZLIFE
6:30 - 8:00PM I SEPTEMBER 18 - APRIL 30
PreK-5th Grade
We believe that when kids know who God really is, they'll trust His heart and follow His plan. KidzLife offres a place where children can discover and develop a passion for God. Through worship, teaching, scripture memorization, and a variety of fun activities, kids are taught God's Word and challeneged to grow in their relationship with Him.

Operation Christmas child 2024
MGCC Collection: November 3-24
We have a wonderful opportunity during the month of November for your family to donate to MGCC in support of an organization called Samaritan's Purse in their annual packing of shoeboxes called the International Ministry of Operation Christmas Child.
Operation Christmas Child partners with churches worldwide to reach boys and girls with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. After receiving shoebox gifts, many children are discipled through a Bible study course, where they learn to become followers of Christ and share their faith with others. A small shoebox can make a big impact!
Steps to Participate in the Shoebox Collection:
1. Find a Shoebox - Find a standard-size shoebox, plastic bin, or preprinted shoebox at the Kiosk in the church lobby.
2. Pack your Shoebox - Follow the gift suggested linked below or stop by the kiosk in the church lobby.
3. Drop off your Shoebox - Bring back your filled shoebox to MGCC by November 24.
Join the children's ministry team!
