Bus Ministry

Our bus routes run on Sunday afternoons picking up in Cleveland and Gaston counties North Carolina and York and Cherokee counties South Carolina. Our buses will pick up your children in front of your home. On the way to church, your kids will participate in bible based bus songs, games, and are taught a short Bible lesson on the bus. The church provides a small snack and drink while they are on our buses.  Once they arrive at church, your child will receive an age appropriate church experience with fun activities and bible preaching.
After bus church, our bus workers will take your children home on the bus, walk them to the front door, and drop them off with a parent or approved guardian.  

All you have to do is help your children get ready to meet our bus which comes by your house each Sunday afternoon. School or play clothes are fine. Our bus workers will pickup your children at the door.

On the way to church, your kids will participate in bible based bus songs, games, and are taught a short Bible lesson on the bus. The church provides a small snack and drink while they are on our buses.

Once they arrive at church, they will be escorted into the church where friendly, competent teachers will receive them. Your child will receive an age appropriate church experience with fun activities and bible teaching or preaching depending on their age.

After church service, our bus workers will ensure each rider is escorted back onto the correct bus and driven back to your door. Our bus workers will walk them to your front door, and drop them off with a parent or approved guardian.  The following Saturday, your bus captain will return to visit your children and to ask them to again ride the bus to Church.

Every volunteer is a faithful member of Love Valley Baptist Church with a heart for working with kids.

It doesn’t cost anything. It’s a free program provided by Love Valley Baptist Church. 

Children must be at least 4 years old and properly potty trained to ride on the bus unless accompanied by a parent. 

Our mission is to help young people follow Jesus as we seek to make an impact in our community through the gospel. 

Our bus program is from 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm every Sunday afternoon. Our buses leave the church around 1:00 pm to begin picking up riders. Buses usually depart the church between 3:45 pm and 4:00 pm for the return trip. 

You can sign up your child by filling out a Bus Rider Registration form (button below). Once you’ve completed the registration form, one of our church bus volunteers will reach out to you about getting your child added to the bus pick up list.
