Nursery Ministry

As our church grows, so does our nursery ministry! Each Sunday we minister to infants to 3-year-olds in our church nursery during all three worship services and our Sunday School hour. Our nursery is where we have the opportunity to begin sowing seeds of early faith, modeling God's love to the next generation. Would you prayerfully consider if you have gifts to serve in this precious ministry?

Below is the link to our Sign Up Genius. If you are a new volunteer, you will receive an email requesting a background check and a link to our online training provided by Ministry Safe.

If you cannot serve or feel ill-equipped for this ministry, we ask that you pray for this ministry of our church and those who serve our littlest members and guests.

SVL Methodist Kid Dictionary

Ever get confused with some of our lingo? Here's a quick reference guide to help sort them all out...

"KidMin" - This is used to refer to the Children's Ministry at Springville Methodist Church. This includes Sunday and Wednesday programming for children from birth through 6th grade. Dana Nolan is the Interim Director of our Children's Ministry (aka KidMin or SVL Methodist Kids)

"Children's Church" - This is offered during our 9 o'clock service. Children ages 3 to 3rd grade are dismissed during the offering to move to the Sanctuary where they participate in a kid-friendly lesson along with some Bible basics and liturgy (Apostle's Creed and Lord's Prayer). Children's Church happens every Sunday during the 9 o'clock service EXCEPT on Communion Sundays, where we invite all to remain in the service to partake of Communion as a family.

"Sunday School" - This is age-based small group Bible study offered at 10am every Sunday morning. We have Sunday School classes available for all ages. KidMin classes (birth-6th grade) happen in our Education Building (the middle section of our campus with the glass door that reads "Kids on MAIN").

"Wednesday Night KidMin" - During the school year, children (birth-6th grade) meet in our Education Bldg for small group Bible study. We meet from 6:30-7:30.

"Kids on MAIN" - This is our weekday preschool/daycare where we serve children from birth to 4 years old. We do offer Summer Care for some school aged children as well. Maureen Waldrop is the Director of Kids on MAIN (aka KoM). kidsonmain35146@gmail.com

"Youth (or Student Ministry)" - This is used to refer to the Youth Ministry at Springville Methodist Church. This includes students in 7th through 12th grades. Logan Henderson is the Student Pastor of our Youth (Student) Ministry.

Hope this helps you sort through some of the "lingo" we toss around in announcements, in the emails, and in the bulletins. Please let us know if we can better define anything else for you!
