Welcome
Children Ministries
Baptism
Houma Methodist is dedicated to walking alongside and resourcing families to help them nurture their children’s faith. We believe in infant Baptism, where parents make a covenant with the church body to raise the child to know God. Our Children’s Council gathers ideas that they implement for families to experience.
Join Us This Summer!
We’d love for your family to be part of our Children’s Ministry activities happening all summer long! Come when you can, stay connected, and enjoy fun, faith-filled experiences together. Questions? Contact Nickie Barr at nickie@houmamethodist.org
The Early Years, Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten Programs
Our church has been dedicated to providing early childhood education for over 30 years through our Preschool program. We strive to provide the best care and age appropriate education through music, art, play, and technology for each child in our program. Our Early Years program starts at 6 weeks and goes to 1 year olds in “The Little White House”. The children then transition to the main building where are 2 and 3 year old classrooms are located. Our Pre-Kindergarteners, 4 year olds, are upstairs in our main building of the church. Our school provides a headstart on early education in a small classroom setting. Our goal is to provide a well rounded education in a Christian environment to mold healthy, confident, and loving children. For more information visit our website at methodist-preschool.com or contact the Preschool office at (985)868-7793.
Nursery
Our Nursery is located in our main building in room 107. We offer Nursery for children from 6 weeks to 5 years old for our Worship Service. All of our Nursery staff have background checks, CPR training, First Aid Certification, and follow our Safe Sanctuary Policy. Every Sunday, the Nursery staff engages our children through music, play, and curriculum.
