Clean Environment
Our classrooms are regularly cleaned and sanitized. Preschool areas receive additional attention, cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, toys, and all areas.
Security Team
We have a fully trained security team on-site at all times. Stationed at various entrances throughout our building, this team can respond to any situation quickly and efficiently. They have contact with our medical assist team and the on-duty policeman in our parking lot.
Sunday School
Tulip Grove offers many opportunities for preschool aged children through elementary age to learn about Christ and grow their relationship with Him. We have an amazing team of leaders, teachers, and helpers that have a passion for children. Our desire is that all children are fully equipped and discipled by the time they enter the youth group, and are able to disciple others.
Because of COVID-19 restrictions, all kids' on-site activities are suspended until further notice.
Activities for preschoolers and children will resume when all the restrictions are lifted.

Kids in Worship
At Tulip Grove, we welcome kids into the worship service. Kids in kindergarten and older join their families in worship. Kids learn to worship by watching and participating with their families and their church family. In addition to singing, praying, and reading Scripture, kids can listen for suggested keywords throughout the worship time.
Each summer, our leadership team hosts a "Going to Big Church" event to help new kindergartners learn what to expect in worship service. They and their parents receive resources to help them make this important transition.
Beyond Sunday Morning
Tulip Grove offers many learning opportunities beyond Sunday morning for kids to learn the gospel, love the gospel, and live the gospel.
Awana
AWANA guides boys and girls to learn more about the gospel and the Bible in general. Through fun games and activities, kids can learn and love God's Word.
Music
We have a complete graded children's choir program that begins with preschoolers (age 4) and continues with children through grade 6. In these choirs, children benefit from meaningful, cumulative instruction in musical skills and activities that include singing, playing rhythm instruments, and participating in various musical games.
