Service Time
Anderson Early Childhood classes meet during the 9am service. As you enter the foyer, the Early Childhood hallway is directly to your right! Our Children's Welcome Desk is just inside the double doors where our Children's Greeters will help you get to the correct classrooms!
Classroom & Curriculum
Anderson Early Childhood Ministry is divided into classes by age which are led by screened, trained leaders. A typical morning for younger classes includes play and meaningful interaction in a safe, loving environment. The older classes have a routine that includes a Bible lesson with a memory verse, hands-on activities to reinforce the lesson, snack time, and playtime.
Snack & Allergy Policy
If your child has an allergy, please let us know and pick up a yellow allergy bracelet from the check-in area for your child to wear. The following snacks are offered at Anderson on Sunday mornings: Infants & Wobblers–bottle or food from home only; Toddlers–Goldfish crackers; TWOs, THREEs and FOURs-Goldfish crackers or Animal Crackers.
Special Needs Ministry
For our children with special needs, we have a Buddy Program where we give your child the individual attention that is needed. If you feel this might be a good option for your child, please contact AllisonWilliamson@grace-bible.org.

Grace Kids desires to extend open arms of love to every child who walks through our church doors. If you have a child with special needs of any kind, we would love to do as much as we can to accommodate his/her needs and to make him/her feel welcome.
ReTreat
As a part of our Special Needs Ministry, Grace Bible Church offers a FREE respite night for families of kids with special needs. Drop off your children (with special needs AND siblings from ages 1 to12) and get away for the evening to enjoy dinner, rest, or just some much-needed peace and quiet in your home. We will have activities geared toward all ages and abilities! We meet on the last Friday of months September-May, from 6:00-8:30pm at the Southwood Campus.
