Children are one of our core ministries at Coastside Church!
We desire to create a safe environment for your children to learn Biblical values and grow closer to God. We would love to have new Christian Servants join our team of teachers, Klub leaders, nursery volunteers, aides to various classes, toy and nursery cleaning, snack makers and more!
Please take note of our WELL CHILD POLICY that applies to all our children's venues -- it is posted in the nursery and all the children's classrooms.
