We welcome all children, birth to age three, and their parents to our nursery. We have created a warm, safe, and comfortable environment for the youngest members of our parish adjacent to our Church school rooms. While we no longer staff our nursery weekly, we invite all parents of infants and toddlers to use the space, as needed, during Sunday services.
Christ Church Bells Corners welcomes children, ages 3 to 13, to our weekly Sunday church school program. This in-person program is team-taught by well-trained teachers commissioned for this vital ministry. All children gather together at 10:00 am to hear a Bible lesson interpreted by our weekly storyteller. After listening to the story and sharing their thoughts and questions, the children are then invited to respond through visual arts, music, games, and movement.
By offering a variety of avenues through which the children can express their understanding of Scripture, we hope to ignite their imagination, enhance their learning, and encourage them to engage all of their senses as they grow in their faith. Our weekly program is enriched by seasonal group activities, pageants, and special activity days to celebrate our Christian festivals.
We ask parents, grandparents, and guardians of church school-aged children to complete the following registration form, which provides us with contact, demographic, and consent information to tailor our programming to the specific needs of each child. Thank you!

The Junior Choir is a group of dedicated volunteers who love to sing, share their musical talents, and minister through song to our Church family. They usually sing once a month and on special Sundays and occasions (e.g. Christmas Eve). As well, they often join the Senior Choir in singing anthems, which they really enjoy.
The Junior Choir meets on Thursday evenings from 6:30–7:30 pm in the main hall of the Church. If you are in Grades 1–12, and love to sing, please consider joining us. It is a very big commitment, but we're certain you will enjoy the fellowship and fun. New members are always welcome.
