Vision

As a “Gospel-Formed Family for the City”, Grace + Peace Austin’s children’s ministry exists to come alongside parents to reach our children for the Kingdom. We are here to help them grow in their understanding of the gospel, their confidence in their heavenly Father, their desire to live as His children, and to help them discover their unique roles and responsibilities in our church family.

We love having the children in the worship service, and they are always welcome to stay with you. Info about our childcare options and children's programs are listed below. If you have a question not answered below, please reach out to our Director of Children’s Ministry, Laura Perez.

Nursery

Nursery for children ages 6 months through 4 years old is available during the entire worship service (10:30am - 12:15pm). 

Many parents choose to pick up their child just prior to communion for the last part of the worship service. This is a great way to introduce them to worshipping corporately. You may also opt to have your child remain in nursery for the duration of the service, as childcare is provided the entire time. 

Nursing Moms

We have a private room set up in our children’s hall, should you need it, with a live stream running so that you may continue to listen and participate in worship.

Early Elementary

Children ages 4 and up are welcome to attend worship with their parents, and PreK through 2nd Graders can attend our “Grapes + Peas” class. Children in Grapes + Peas participate in the first part of worship, are dismissed during the sermon for a lesson, and return before communion.

Late elementary

Our 3rd-5th graders remain with their families during the worship service. They meet during our Sunday school hour before church for fellowship and discipleship.
