KIDS FAQ

  • Checking your kid(s) into OWCC Kids will be simple and stress-free! If it's your first time visiting, just walk up to the New Families Check-In desk and one of our team members will get you registered and checked in. After your initial visit, you'll be able to use our self check-in kiosk computers or use the express check-in with our church app.

  • The Outer West Kids Team is the best - they serve kids and believe it's their responsibility to help every child draw closer to Jesus Christ. We take kids safety seriously so we interview, background check, and train all of our volunteers before they serve in Outer West Kids so you can know your kids are in great hands at OWCC.

  • For our preschoolers and elementary students, each Sunday includes free time, large group time that includes singing songs and a story from the Bible. That's followed by small group time where they interact with the lesson of the day and do a craft together. Our babies and toddlers in Outer West Kids will spend time being held, rocked, prayed over, and/or playing with fun and age-appropriate toys.

  • Yes! We do our best to make all kids feel welcome at OWCC Kids which includes siblings the first few times they attend.

  • OWCC Kids provides our preschoolers with allergen-free snacks every Sunday. If you have special requests for snacks, please let us know so we can work through some details with you!

  • We’d love to serve you and your child! Visit our special needs page for more info!
