Kids Church Right at Home!

If you are not comfortable or unable to return with us for our in-person services this weekend, that is okay! Below you will find some things that are very familiar to your child and resources to help you have a fun "kids service" in your home. Depending on your child's age, check out the "parent guide." You can then watch the included teaching videos and leverage the activities and God Time Cards for family spiritual growth.

For your reference, "First Look" is our preschool curriculum, "Elementary" is geared toward K-3, and "Preteen" targets 4th and 5th grade, but is also appropriate for 3rd grade.

Our Kids Points Program is designed to help motivate kids to dig deeper in their personal relationship with God. Each week, kids have the opportunity to earn points for completing tasks such as scripture memory, completing and returning God Time cards, memorizing books of the Bible, as well as just showing up for Kids Ministry services! Points can be redeemed for rewards such as candy, toys, gift certificates and passes, and more!

Each month, kids will be given the opportunity to memorize five verses. Kids will have the entire month to learn these verses. Here are May's verses:

Isaiah 40:31 - “But those who trust in the Lord will receive new strength. They will fly as high as eagles. They will run and not get tired. They will walk and not grow weak."
Hebrews 12:1 – “A huge cloud of witnesses is all around us. So let us throw off everything that stands in our way. Let us throw off every sin that holds on to us so tightly. And let us keep on running the race marked out for us.”
Philippians 4:13 – “I can do all this by the power of Christ. He gives me strength.”
Psalm 31:24 – “Be strong, all you who put your hope in the Lord. Never give up.”
Psalm 34:2-3 – “I will find my glory in knowing the Lord. Let those who are hurting hear me and be joyful. Join me in giving glory to the Lord. Let us honor him together.”
