Celebrate Children and Youth
At Trinity MCC, we believe children and youth are not just the future, they are a vibrant part of who we are right now. Every young person deserves a space where they can explore, create, and grow while being fully celebrated for who they are.
Thrive Tribe
A space to belong, create, and be yourself.
Thrive Tribe is our monthly Saturday evening hangout for kids and pre-teens, ages 8 to 14.
Each month we come together for fun activities like crafts, games, snacks, and conversations that help kids connect and grow in confidence in a safe, affirming environment.
As Thrive grows, we will soon expand into Sunday morning Thrive sessions for younger children during worship. These gatherings will offer creative lessons and projects that help kids explore community, compassion, and belonging.
All kids are welcome just as they are.
Thrive Tribe meets once a month on Saturday evenings at Trinity MCC.

Children During Worship
We celebrate the joyful sounds and movement of children in our worship space. God put the wiggles in children, so we welcome them just as they are.
It is OK if your child gets a little restless; all are welcome here.
Feel free to sit near the front so children can see and participate.
Sing, dance, pray, and join in together.
We love seeing kids take part in worship.
For Parents and Caregivers
Infants
A baby changing station is available in the first bathroom. Breastfeeding is natural and welcome in our worship space. If you prefer privacy, a comfortable chair is available in the kitchen so you can still hear the service.
Children in church
Coloring books and activity sheets are available at the entrance. If children need to stretch or play, the small hall beside the sanctuary is open for indoor playtime.
