babies & toddlers @ Kelty Kirk

Baptism

At Kelty Church we believe that the birth of a child is a spiritual experience (even though it is an intensely physical experience at the time!). The fact that we can feel so much of that mysterious, invisible, non-scientific stuff called "love" for our children is evidence that we are surely more than just animals who have evolved biologically.

This is why we are delighted to share in the good news of another child born into God's world, and we warmly welcome you and your new family member to worship with us any Sunday at 11am.

A crèche is available at morning worship as Kelty Kirk is very relaxed and understanding of the practical needs of parents and children alike.

Please feel free to bring prams into the building. There is an internal ramp for access to the church hall.

We would be equally pleased to discuss baptism with you if promising to bring your son or daughter up in the Christian Faith was something you wished to consider. Simply contact our minister by email or by telephone on (01383) 830291.

Equally, if you are an adult who would like to pursue Holy Baptism for yourself, then please get in touch for a chat about what this would involve.

A video about baptism is available for borrowing if you are interested. Please simply get in touch with the church office by telephone (01383 831219) or email office@keltykirk.org.uk

Best wishes for your sleep-filled nights!!

Facilities for babies and toddlers

Kelty Kirk is an extremely family-friendly church - having long-since recognised the difficulty for young families in attending churches! We have all been places where there is only a "tutt, tutt" to welcome us when the baby cries, or our toddlers want the toilet, so we have taken (and continue to take) steps which facilitate an environment that makes us all feel at home.

Kelty Kirk has quality baby-changing facilities available at all times as well as our superb children's area in the church hall. Additionally, we are also registered as Breastfeeding Friendly Premises by NHS Fife. A breastfeeding group meets in the church hall on Monday afternoons from 1:30-2:30pm. Contact Caroline Gray for more information.

For the under 3s we have a crèche every Sunday morning during worship, which is run by volunteers who have been officially trained in child protection issues.
