Join PHPC Kids!
Come join PHPC this fall! With newly-renovated classrooms, upgrades to Founders Hall, and an all-new curriculum, the program promises to challenge and inspire kids and adults alike!
Preschoolers will spend the morning in their classrooms, getting to know one another, their teachers, and God through stories and play.
Grades 1-4 will first gather in Founders Hall for music, a short video and fellowship before breaking into grade-level classrooms for discussion.
Grades 5-6 will meet in their new, designed just for them, lounge for an introduction to their lesson before splitting into discussion groups.
Embrace the family atmosphere that makes PHPC so unique and be apart of PHPC Kids this fall!

About our Children's Ministry
Our journey of faith begins at an early age, and we are here to nurture that growing faith.
From the beginning, we teach the stories of the Bible that give children a foundation for building a strong faith. We help families to be the first teachers of the Bible for their children.
We are committed to this wonderful and challenging responsibility!
Child Care and Sunday School
During times when there is no Sunday School, there is child care for all three services for children five and under. Children are encouraged to attend worship with their parents. Children’s worship kits are available at Sanctuary and Chapel entrances.
Baptism
Learn about our procedures and policies for baptism here.

PHPC is blessed with a thriving music ministry. It offers Children's Choir for children age four through the sixth grade and handbell choir for fourth through sixth graders. These groups rehearse from early September through Palm Sunday each year. More details.
