Here at Lima First, we LOVE our kids & students!!!
NURSERY
The Lima First Nursery Connection is available for children birth – 3/potty trained. With a secure check-in area and a staff that are pre-qualified with background checks and reference checks, the safety of the children is crucial.
Children in this age group are growing and learning at a very fast pace and need a lot of love, attention, hands-on activities, and visual stimulations. Hearing and Learning about God at this age is paramount. That is why we use the Orange Curriculum. A Curriculum that begins to teach even our youngest children that God loves them.
The Nursery is available during the Sunday morning services at 8:30 & 10:30 am. Once inside the main entrance at Lima First, look to your left, and you will see the Nursery desk. Check in begins 15 min. before each service.

THE KIDS CONNECTION AT LIMA FIRST IS AVAILABLE FOR CHILDREN IN GRADES K - 5 AND IS DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY WITH THIS AGE IN MIND.
It is our desire for your kids to...
• Have their own personal and growing relationship with Jesus Christ
• Be confident in their identity in Jesus Christ.
• Know that they were created unique, for a purpose and because God desired them.
• Be free in their worship and bold in their prayers.
• Understand the value and power of learning God's word and putting it to memory.
• Actively be developing their God given gifts to be used in furthering the Kingdom of God.
• Understand the power of the Holy Spirit and actively pursuing the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
• Be passionately in love with Jesus and living their love for Him out loud
• Have the heart of God and be filled with compassion when it comes to those who don't know Jesus...both close to home and world wide.
What to expect
Through interactive messages, hands on object lessons, powerful praise and worship, and crazy fun games, your child will experience God like never before and get to hang out with a bunch of kids that are just like them!
Your child's safety is our top concern
Our staff of pre-qualified workers are ready to welcome your kids to have fun with them and encourage them in their walk with God at every service.
We use a secure check in system that ensures only you can check your child out. We also background and reference check all of our kids workers.
WE THINK THAT CHURCH SHOULD BE FUN FOR PEOPLE AT ANY AGE! WE USE VIDEO, MUSIC, FUN ACTIVITIES AND SKILLED VOLUNTEERS SO THAT CHILDREN CAN EXPERIENCE FOR THEMSELVES WHO GOD IS, HOW HE SEES THEM, AND HOW MUCH HE LOVES THEM.
YOUTH MINISTRIES
The 612 Youth Ministry is our ministry specifically for students in grades 6-12 that meets on Wednesday nights at 7 pm at the church.
The purpose of the 612 is to connect students to each other through games and conversations and to connect students to God through an engaging and relevant presentation of the Bible, authentic worship, and encouragement from other students.
Throughout the year our students participate in events like Fine Arts, Reach Conference, camp, and give to Speed the Light to support the spreading of the Gospel across the world.
You are invited to join us on Wednesday nights at 7 pm for a life changing, awesome time at the 612!
