Brian’s Buddies

We are excited to invite any child with special needs to attend the “Brian’s Buddies” Class. This class has been designed to cater specifically to children with special needs within the ages of 0-12 years old. Brian’s Buddies meets every Sunday morning at 11:00 am and every Wednesday night at 7:00 pm in their own classroom located in the Nursery Hallway.

Please call us if you have a teenager or adult with special needs at 909-825-8887x242. We have classes for them as well!

Parent Support Group

We realize the need for parents of children with special needs to have others they can share with and gain insight from. Therefore we also provide monthly support meetings. Please contact our Special Needs Director, AnneMarie Ayala, for more information.

Babies and Toddlers (ages 0-23 months) are special to us here at The Rock!  Our nursery rooms are designed to meet their needs.  Our creatively decorated rooms are divided by age and staffed by loving and caring volunteers.  The toddlers enjoy the use of their own playground and during most services also enjoy a trip around the campus in one of our “Bye Bye Buggies!”  The Nursery is open during every regular service and usually during all special events.

Our Early Childhood classes feature fun activities, puppets, creative play times, crafts, praise and worship, plus the teaching of God’s Word by loving and caring teachers and workers.

The children are divided into age-appropriate classrooms. Even though we minister to a large number of Early Childhood age children each week, we realize the need to have classrooms small enough to meet the individual’s need. Therefore, we have designed two classrooms for each age group equalling a total of 10 classrooms!

For the safety of your children, each volunteer has had their background screened and receives training for all normal emergencies. Parents of children ages 3 and under are given pagers during most services.

Rockville “Seaside” is where our elementary-age children meet who are in grades 2-4. The theme is that of a beach boardwalk. The children in Seaside worship with their own band, with songs appropriate of their age, and in a “Children’s Church” style format.

Children learn the Word of God through different media such as Bible preaching, memory verse challenges, games, videos, object lessons, costume characters and skits. Children who arrive early may play video games, Air Hockey, and Fooseball. They also have their own playground to enjoy basketball, volleyball, or just play on our play structure!

The Seaside Rock Shop is a popular place where the children can exchange our currency, “Rock Dollars,” they have earned during the weeks prior, for such items as toys, games, Bibles and books.

Rockville Studio 56 is where our “Pre-Teen” elementary-age children meet who are in Grades 5 & 6. Studio 56 has more of a pre-teenage atmosphere than any of the other rooms in Planet Rock. in Rockville Studio 56, the room designed around the theme of “Running the Race” (1 Corinthians 9:24). The kids worship with their own contemporary band in a “Children’s Church” style format and includes connect groups for discussion and prayer.

In Studio 56, the children learn the Word of God through different media such as Bible preaching, memory verse challenges, games, videos, object lessons, costume characters and skits. Children who arrive early may play video games, Air Hockey, and Fooseball.

There are many regular activities in Studio 56 that help maintain an atmosphere of fun, yet help build the needed relationships that prepare kids to enter into the Youth Ministry.  Some of those are the Pinewood Derby, our annual Summer Camp, Fro Yo Nights, Summer Day Camps, Leadership Club, Drama, Choir, Bible Battles, and Rock Company Club.
