Children & Family ⋆ Lutheran Church Lincoln Nebraska

CHILDREN & FAMILY

Welcome!

Jesus said, Let the little children come to me. The Children and Family Ministries of Messiah partner with families as we point our children to the truth found in God’s Word and the comfort we find in Jesus.

The presence of children is a gift to God’s family, and a reminder that our church is growing! The way we welcome children here directly affects the way they respond to the Church, to God, and to one another. We want everyone to feel at home in this house of worship.

Children & Family

Relax!

Parents of young children: Relax!

God put the wiggle in children! Don’t feel you have to suppress those wiggles in God’s house. If you need to nurse a baby, or you and your child(ren) need a quiet place to experience worship, we have a room at the back of the sanctuary, furnished with rocking chairs, a changing table, and wheelchair accessible restroom. The worship service is broadcast into this room, and has a clear view of the sanctuary. We also provide Nursery Care at the 9:30 am service for infants and toddlers. Stop by the Welcome Center for assistance.

Family Events

Family Fun for Every Season
At Messiah, we love creating opportunities for families to connect, grow, and make lasting memories together. Throughout the year, we offer a variety of seasonal events designed for all ages. Whether it’s a themed date night with built-in childcare, an interactive experience that brings the Easter story to life, a summer evening filled with games and music, or a fall celebration with costumes, treats, and family-friendly activities—there’s something for everyone. No matter the season, our events are designed to help families build stronger relationships and enjoy meaningful time together.
