Our vision for Soma Kids is to create a safe and fun environment where children can learn how to be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and do what Jesus does; and where adults are equipped to disciple children in everyday life.

sunday classes

  • Staffed Nursery (6mo-2yrs). Parents are also welcome to sit with their babies and use the livestream link to tune in to the gathering.

  • Preschool (2yrs - 4yrs)

  • Mission Kids (5yrs - 5th grade)

kids’ safety

In order to provide a safe environment in which to care for our children, we background check all of our children’s servants and require them to work as a team, so no adult is ever alone with a child. We also maintain certain child to adult ratios in order to effectively minister to our children.

check-in

Please check your children in at the check-in table and retain your parent tag. You will show this tag at the door of your child’s class upstairs when you pick them up. In addition, this tag has a code for your child. If your child requires assistance, this code will be displayed on the screen in the sanctuary.

After being checked in, all children begin the gathering in the sanctuary with their family for worship and are then dismissed to their classes.

class activities & teaching

In the Soma Kids classes, the students play games, worship, memorize Scripture, and do crafts to reinforce the Bible Lesson. We use the Gospel Project curriculum to walk our children through the whole Bible in three years. Our aim is always to bring each story back to the Gospel and to teach our children how Jesus is the hero of every part of God’s Story.

evacuation procedures

In case of fire or other need for evacuation, do not go to your child’s classroom to get your child. Exit the building and gather in the parking lot across the alley and adjacent to Mission Thrift. Teachers will follow an evacuation procedure and immediately bring all children to the parking lot to meet their parents.

We value our children and believe they are a gift to our body. If you have any questions, or if we can serve you in any way please contact us at somakids@somatacoma.org.
