Children & Youth

Children of all ages are welcome at Atonement. We currently offer programming for children in Kindergarten through high school that coincides with the school year.

Children in Kindergarten through 3rd Grade meet in the second-floor Little Kids room. They use the Spark! curriculum which follows the lectionary. Our little kids also play games, sing songs, and do crafts.

Children in 4th through 6th Grade meet in the third-floor Big Kids room. They also use the Spark! curriculum, and engage in deeper Bible study, questions and conversations, as well as games and crafts.

Youth in grades 7th Grade and up meet in the Elizabethan Room or the Fellowship Hall, and use the Journey to Adulthood curriculum. Our youth engage in conversations, fellowship, music, along with service projects and plenty of time for fun and games. 8th graders (and up) are eligible for Confirmation, which usually takes place in the spring.

All children and youth have the opportunity to participate in special events including field trips, service days, Día de los Muertos, Las Posadas, Christmas pageants, Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper, Easter Egg Hunt, summer camp at Camp Chicago, and several other events throughout the year.
