We love having children worship with us and we're eager to see them grow in the faith. Guided by God’s command in Deuteronomy 6 to teach our children His Word diligently in every realm of life, our vision is to partner with parents and caregivers to provide a safe space for children to encounter the God of the gospel in a way that they will understand it.

Currently, our Gospel Kids Ministry on Sundays provides dedicated care and a fun Bible-based experience for toddlers to 4yrs old. When you arrive at the Hawthorn in Portsmouth, the check-in is upstairs. You'll immediately see the signs pointing you down a private hall where you will meet our children's ministry leaders who have been theological trained and background checked.
