Glendale-United-Methodist-Church-Nashville-Kids (2)

We seek to provide children a safe + loving environment where they can learn about the teachings of Jesus.

Our Glendale Kids ministry offers the opportunity for young people to grow in their faith through studying bible stories and to be active in their service to our community and the world through activities that connect us to one another and to Jesus – not to mention while having a lot of fun!

A Different Take on the Children’s Message in Worship 

Once a month, Bluey + Romper (our favorite stuffed animal friends), join us in worship to talk about the day’s scripture so all ages can understand the Bible passages that we dig into. These two bring humor that is great for all ages to enjoy!

Our Kids are an Active Part of Worship

We believe that it is important that young people have the opportunity to play an active role in worship at Glendale as greeters, acolytes, scripture readers, musicians, communion servers and pretty much any way an adult would serve during our worship services each week @ 10am!

Mission + Service Opportunities for Children

We are intentional in being active outside the doors of our building and welcome kids of all ages to help us make a difference in the lives of others! Many of the missions we are involved in are great opportunities for kids to get involved like Room In The Inn, putting together snack packs for youth in need for Oasis Center, walking with us at Nashville PRIDE, writing letters to our incarcerated siblings and many more ways to serve. Check out GlendaleUMC.org/Serve for more information on some of the ongoing opportunities for all ages to make a difference.
