Your First Visit to Awesome Adventure
The Nursery, Preschool and Elementary Ministries of West Shore

A Positive Experience
We know that visiting a church for the first time can be a little overwhelming, especially for children, so we make every effort to create a positive experience for your child. For instance, we ask for an extended teaching commitment from our preschool and elementary level teachers so that children will see familiar faces from one week to the next. It is also likely that your child will recognize children they know through school, sports teams, or the neighborhood, which will help them to make new friends here at West Shore.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask the registration desk staff. We hope your child loves Awesome Adventure so much that your family finds a "home" here at our church.

What can I expect at check-in?
Upon arriving at the registration desk of any of our Awesome Adventure wings you will be asked to fill out a simple registration form. This form will provide helpful information so we can care for your child. You will only need to complete a registration form the first time you visit.

Your child will then receive a numbered name badge to wear and you will receive a matching numbered security card. Then your child will be escorted to his/her classroom.  Feel free to ask a registration attendant for a Guest Pass if you’d like to see your child’s room and meet class teachers.

We provide children's programming during and between both services every Sunday. If you will be involved in programs at our church throughout both service times, you can check your child into Awesome Adventure at the beginning of the first service and wait to pick them up until after the second service ends.

How do I check out? Return to the registration desk where you dropped-off your child and give the registration attendant the name and age or grade of your child. Your child will come out to the pick-up area near the registration desk. A volunteer will match-up your security card with your child's name badge and release them to you.
