This last year has been challenging—especially for kids and students. We are excited to provide safe spaces for them to gather, interact, play games, and grow in their faith. In order to keep our rooms at safe capacities, we ask that you register in advance.
Promiseland (ages 2–grade 5): Welcome back to Promiseland! We are so excited to have our spaces open to kids ages 2-grade 5 at this time. We will have fun, games, and large group programming to help your child learn about Jesus and grow in their faith. Your child will have time to connect with friends and a caring leader in modified small groups. While the heart of our ministry remains the same, we aim to provide the safest space possible. Find out more information about Promiseland registration here. For those who are unable to come to Promiseland, we will have the same weekend content available for you and your family online at www.promiselandkids.org.
Elevate (grades 6–8): Elevate can't wait to welcome your student back! Our large group program will have fun games, engaging worship, a chance to make new friends, and teaching to help students grow in their faith. We look forward to providing a space where students will be welcomed and feel safe as we regather. **Small groups will continue outside of the large group gathering. To get your student connected to a group, please email [email protected].
Impact (grades 9–12): Welcome back to Student Impact! We are so pumped to have you join us for our Impact Worship Service and House Groups on Wednesday nights at Willow’s campus. Our team’s priority is to provide a safe, authentic, and FUN community experience as we reopen! We’re hosting Wednesday services at 6:30 p.m. and House Groups on campus at 7:15 p.m. Are you new to our ministry? We’d love to get you plugged in here >>> studentimpact.com/newstudent.

Special Friends: Special Friends can't wait to welcome our students back! Both our Kids side (ages 4-12) and our Teens/Adult side (ages 13+) will be open with limited capacity. We are excited to have a time of worship, engaging play, arts & crafts, and biblical teaching with our friends! We look forward to gathering safely as we engage in learning about Jesus together. **SF KIDS: If you are unable to attend, you can continue to participate in our online Sunday services. SF TEENS/ADULTS: In addition to in-person Sunday services, our Midweek Tuesday Bible Study and our Saturday night services will continue via Zoom.

Your health and safety is a top priority for us! Let's work together to make our weekends a fantastic experience for all who serve and attend.
We will...
Out of concern for others, we ask that you kindly...
The auditoriums are limited to a maximum of 25% capacity. Rows are blocked off to ensure safe social distancing. We encourage you to only sit directly with members of your own household.
Doors will open about 30 minutes before the start of the service. If you have children, we ask that you allow 20–30 minutes for check-in.
Please refrain from bringing food or beverages into service as it requires the removal of your mask.
Here at Willow we strive for best practice and the highest standards of care for our congregation and staff, therefore a mask is required at all times in our buildings.
Absolutely!
Yes! We are so excited to see your kids and students. In order to safely gather, we do require registration so that we have proper distancing and volunteer ratios. Please view registration information provided above.
Any child age 2 and older is required to wear a mask.
On site remote viewing will be utilized if we reach capacity in our auditoriums.
We hope to host small- to medium-sized gatherings in the future! At this moment, we are only able to hold worship services and kids/student programs in order to maintain proper cleaning and distancing protocols.
Please notify the church by emailing [email protected] if you test positive after you have attended a service. If we have specific contact information of the infected person, we will notify those in direct contact with them.
The Care Center reopening is going to start small and learn more before expanding to offer in-building services across more shifts with the ultimate goal of fully reopening in the late spring. Learn more about the Care Center's reopening and current services available here.
At the moment, language interpretation will only be available online for the 11:15 a.m. service.
Last but not least, for the safety of all joining us, we ask that you review, acknowledge, and abide by this participation agreement when attending a Willow Creek service or event:
