Every service, we offer Sunday AM childcare (infant through pre-school).
Summit Kids (K-2nd Grade) meet the first 4 Sundays of every month (5th Sundays off).
Summit Kids (Grades 3-5) meet the first 3 Sundays of every month (with 4th and 5th Sundays off).

The first time that you bring your children to Summit, please register them at our ‘Children’s Check In’ with one of our volunteer workers.  Any usher, greeter, or team member can direct you there. After checking in your kids, you’ll worship together as a family in the worship center. On the Sunday’s Summit Kids meet,  your kids (K-5th grade) will be dismissed to the lobby right before the message, where they will meet their teachers.

If your infants/toddlers are being cared for during our morning worship service, please know that we employ a trained security team who actively monitor our facility, with special attention to all children’s areas. We take safety of our entire congregation very seriously.
While your children are enjoying our nursery or ‘Summit Kids’ ministry, we feature on-screen notifications for you if your child needs attention (look for the badge number on your check-in receipt; this will be displayed on all projection and video displays throughout the building if you are needed).
In our Nursery, we offer childcare for children from birth to 24 months. Our Early Childhood begins at 2 years and goes through to Pre-Kindergarten. We offer an age-appropriate, structured program of worship songs, a Bible lesson with engaging visuals, games and a snack. There will also be some free time for play. Your kids are going to love it!

If you have any need to step out of the service to care for your children, you’re welcome to sit in our spacious lobby and watch our service on video monitors. Need to nurse your infant? We have a private room in our nursery where you can continue to watch the service on a video monitor as you care for your child!

When you pull onto our campus, you’ll be directed to our main parking lot by signs until you meet our friendly greeters at every entrance.

Come in any of our east or west main entrances and identify yourself as a first time guest to any member of our Connection Team. They’ll be able to answer any questions that you have while helping you find your way.

Do you have kids? Read, below, in the What’s Available For My Children section for more info!

Restrooms are found near every main entrance for your convenience. Grab a coffee or tea in the cafe and get to know some of the great people around you. If you have any questions, check in at the Connection Desk for assistance.

Countdown screens in the lobby keep you informed about the start time of worship. As you enter the worship center, our greeting team will offer assistance in helping you find a seat, if you need. Lean in and join us as we worship Jesus!

At Summit we love our weekend services for worshiping together, but church is not an event, it’s the people. Many of those who attend our weekend worship service will also be meeting during the week in small groups of people in various homes throughout the lakeshore area. The purpose of all these groups is to worship, study and discuss God’s Word together and encourage one another through develop meaningful and lasting friendships. Often, we also feature extended learning opportunities along the lines of many various topics including “parenting, marriage, biblical counseling, financial budgeting and planning, bible study, men’s and women’s ministries, etc. Another great way to connect with people is to get involved serving in various areas of ministry at Summit. You should also check out our “Gateway Gatherings” at Gateway Mission (Holland, MI) the first Thursday night of every month (7pm).

We use the term “discipleship” around here a lot. A disciple of Jesus Christ is one who is committed to growing in spiritual understanding, maturity and a life-giving personal relationship with Jesus.

We’re ‘more than a Sunday’… we’re a disciple-making church!
