Children’s Ministry
Here at Southwestern Baptist, children and families are very important to us! We believe our role in your child’s life is a partnership with families exemplifying what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ. We strive to provide a safe and fun environment for our children to grow in the knowledge and love of Jesus!

When can I check my child in?
How old does my child have to be to participate in Children's Ministry?
We offer classes for all kids – babies through the 6th grade. If your child is preschool age or younger, they will go to the Preschool area, to the left of the Kid’s Ministry Welcome area. If your child is grade K-6th, they will go to the Elementary area, to the right of the Kid’s Ministry Welcome area.
How do I know my child is safe?
Child safety is taken very seriously at SWBC. All volunteers in the Children’s ministry go through background checks. We also require that parents sign-out their child in their classrooms at pick-up. Also, all outside doors near the Children’s Wing will be locked after the service has begun.
