Children are an important part of the Woodward Church of the Nazarene community. That's why we work hard to teach them of God's love, give them opportunities to serve, and create fun times of praise and worship for them.
This happens in a number of ways, but we have 3 main events:
Teaching times (Sundays and Wednesdays), Camps, and VBS

Sunday School & Children's Church
SUNDAY SCHOOL AT 9:30 AM
All of our children are encouraged to attend Sunday school. You can find more information in our Sunday School and Discipleship Ministries page on this site. The classes available on Sunday mornings are:
Nursery (West side of Gym)
Pre-K - K (Nadine)
1st - 2nd Grade (Cindy)
3rd - 4th Grade (Churie)
5th - 6th Grade
With the exception of the Nursery, which is on the West side of the gym, each of the children's classrooms are in the back wing of the church. To help keep our kids safe, none of the exterior doors are open on the back wing. Please enter through the main front doors of the building. One of our greeters can help you find the right classroom
WORSHIP SERVICE @ 10:45
Each week the children begin their worship experience with everyone else in the sanctuary. After a time of prayer with the pastor, they gather in the children’s chapel for children’s church where they have their own worship time. We have a dedicated group of volunteers that share stories, teach crafts and sing with our kids. All of this is designed to minister to, encourage and teach our children. Our Children's church time is designed for Pre-K - 5th grades.
Once a month (Usually the first Sunday of the Month) we purposefully do not have Children's church. We want families to sit together in the service and be at church as a family unit. There are 'activity bags' hanging in the west hallway (toward the offices) that you can use during the service. You can use these bags any time you are at church. They are filled with color sheets and other activities to help keep kids active but not disruptive during the service.

Kids Camps
We have at least 3 kids camps each summer: two District Kids Camps with the Oklahoma District Church of the Nazarene, and one local kids camp organized by our local children’s volunteer, Cindy Stone. The District camp is located at Camp Bond in southeast Oklahoma, and the local kids camp is on a campground just outside of Vici, Oklahoma. Each of these camps are designed to be memorable adventures for the kids, and opportunities to teach them about God’s love for them.
