children's ministry
Children are a welcome priority in our church. All children are invited to attend our various age-level classes and events:
Nursery, Sundays at 10:00am
Allow our loving staff to care for your infants and toddlers from birth up to 3 years of age while you worship, or come along with your crying or active little ones. Our nursery is located downstairs in Room 4. Our service is available on YouTube and KDUN Radio 1030AM if you want to stay connected while you're there.
Sunday Morning Live, 10:00am to 11:00am
Children age 3 through 6th grade can enjoy high-energy songs, Bible stories, and hands-on crafts led by excellent, caring teachers. Classes are divided by age level.
Security
We want your kids to have a safe, fun time. For that reason, we use a check-in / check-out process to make sure all children leave with their correct caregivers.
Need a Ride?
We provide a safe, secure Sunday morning bus for kids and youth age 5 through high school. If you would like to arrange a pickup or want more information, contact the church office by calling 541-271-3928, emailing info@rchog.org, or filling out this contact form.

Introductory Camp is structured for children who haven’t been to camp before, and provides the security of having one of their parents along for the experience. The activities and faith-based sessions are created with both the children and adults in mind. It is a great camp for parent-child bonding and creating special memories.
