Promotion Sunday
What is Promotion Sunday?
Promotion Sunday is the day when all children and students move up to the next grade level in Children’s Ministry or Next Gen Ministry.
Why is Promotion Sunday so important?
This day gives families the opportunity to make changes to their Sunday-morning church routine—switching the worship service they attend or the hour they attend Life Group—if necessary to complement their child’s new Life Group time. Promotion Sunday is also a great day for adults to visit a Life Group if they’re not already in one.
What is the typical routine for children in preschool–3rd grade?
Children in pre-K4 through 3rd grade can participate in Life Group for one worship service and attend KidVue Worship (1st–3rd grade) or KidVue Worship Junior (pre-K–kindergarten) during the other service. Younger preschoolers (ages 3 and younger) may attend Life Group during two service times (8 and 9:30 a.m. or 9:30 and 11 a.m.). They will be assigned to the same classroom for both hours. Adults are able to attend one worship service and then attend a Life Group during another service when their children have this routine.
What is the typical routine for students in 4th grade and up?
Students in 4th grade and up attend worship with their parents or guardians. At another hour they can attend Life Group with their respective student ministries (4th & 5th Grade Ministry, Middle School Ministry, or High School Ministry). If a student goes to the 9:30 a.m. worship service, then they can go to their Life Group at 8 or 11. If they attend the 11 a.m. service, then they can go to their Life Group at 8 or 9:30 a.m.
What if my student doesn’t want to change their Sunday-morning routine due to familiarity with their teacher or friends?
You can switch the worship service you attend so your student can attend worship service with you when they’re not in Life Group.
