About Impact Children’s Ministry
Here at GBC Church we strive to help children develop a personal relationship with Christ while learning biblical truths. Our children’s program is called Impact because we hope to make a positive impact on your child and your family. We understand the importance of family in the spiritual development of our children and strive to provide resources for families that extend the learning into the week at home.

We Use our Brief Time to the Max!
Did you know that if a church service lasts two hours, that your child spends just 1% of their year at church? On average, your child spends 15% of their time at school. This leaves the remaining 84% of a child’s time up to you as parents and guardians!
Impact Classes
Impact is divided into four age group classes:
Nursery (Birth-1 year): The nursery is a space for new babies to be cared for by their parents, and for parents to have a quiet space to feed their babies. We have created a nurturing and fun environment where babies can feel safe, and experience age-appropriate exploratory play. The nursery is not staffed by volunteers, but parents are welcomed to use the space as needed. All parents that wish to have their children watched can put them into the toddler room next door. That room is available for all children from birth-3yrs.
Toddlers (2-3 years): The toddler room is a place where the children can experience exploratory play, social interactions with others their age. This room adjoins the nursery with a central door so that volunteers can easily access our changing station and toys that may be appropriate for your child. There is also a bathroom connected to this room to help kids who may be starting potty training. The toddler room always keeps a one adult to five kids or less ratio with at least two certified volunteers.
Pre-K (4 years-Kindergarten): The PK room is full of engaging toys and activities. In this room the kids will enjoy an interactive Bible lesson where they will learn stories and principles straight from the scriptures! Through positive peer interactions, and hands-on activities, your child will want to keep coming back again and again! The preschool room always keeps a one adult to ten kids or less ratio with at least two certified volunteers.
Elementary (1st-5th Grade): In the elementary classroom your kids will experience impactful and relatable lessons every week! Through hands-on activities, games, crafts, and more, your child will want to invite their friends! Our curriculum teaches kids straight out of the Bible as they explore the stories and principles that are foundational to Christianity. The elementary room always keeps a one adult to fifteen kids or less ratio with at least two certified volunteers.
