In order to teach God’s word in a loving, safe, and encouraging environment each of our teachers must complete an orientation and potential teacher class as well as the completion of step one. Step one is required for all those working in ministry at Loveland. Additional training is made available throughout the year through Equipped For Excellence Sunday School & Leadership Training.

At the time of check-in, you will be asked to provide us with your cell phone number that you have in your possession in the event we need to contact you during services. We will call you or send you a text message. If your child cries, we will attempt to sooth the child using a familiar comfort item. If your child cries for an extended period of time we will contact you. Upon check-in you and your child will receive a wrist bracelet. To ensure the security of your child, your child will not be released without presenting the corresponding bracelet.
