Children's Ministry Policies

The health, safety and well-being of your child is a priority to Bethel Baptist Church.

  • Children must be brought to their class by an adult and will be released to the adult with the parent security tag.
  • Provide any information teachers may need to know in order to properly care for your child., i.e. allergies, etc.
  • Parents are asked to label all items belonging to their child, i.e. Bibles, jackets, etc. Children should leave personal toys or other possessions at home.
  • If an emergency arises, you will be notified.
  • Our Children’s Ministry staff is trained to keep your child safe. In the event of an evacuation or lockdown, please do not attempt to enter the Children’s wing.

  • All children are promoted annually to go along with the local school calendar.
Health Policies
  • For the protection of your child and the other children, parents are requested not to bring a child who appears to be ill.
