KIDS @ FIRST

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kids’ First Worship for Children ages 3 years – 3rd grade starts out in the sanctuary with our family then proceeds to the lower floor of the sanctuary building.

We will pick up with Moses’ successor, Joshua in November.

November 10 – JOSHUA – Serving the Lord

November 17 – JOSHUA – Battle of Jericho

November 24 – THANKSGIVING – Gratitude 101

During December, we will experience the way life was during the time Jesus was born with a variety of hands-on stations including grinding wheat, basket weaving, carpentry, taking census and taking care of sheep.  The stations will focus on the story for the week.

December 1: MARY

December 8: JOSEPH

December 15: BETHLEHEM

December 22: SHEPHERDS

December 29: Kids first Worship will not meet this Sunday so families can worship together.

 

Wonderful Wednesdays are a fantastic way to remind children that God is not just for Sundays, he is for EVERY day.  We meet in the Educational Building from 3:45 – 5:30pm.  Friends are always welcome. 

3:45 – 5:30pm Kids ages 4 years – 6th grade. To register go to Wonderful Wednesday

Our theme this year is “In the Beginning”.  We will be studying the book of Genesis from start to finish this year.  Last month, we learned about the first four days of Creation. This month we are focused on the Tower of Babel and the story of Noah.

We will take a break from the book of Genesis to focus on Advent during December.  We will NOT MEET December 25 & January 1 – Christmas break. 

We will resume on January 8th.

Sunday School meets on Sunday mornings from 9-9:45 during summer.  We have two classes, one for non-readers and one for readers. With the Bible as our foundation, we will be using science, art and activity to not just tell God’s story, but learn what it means for us. 

We are focusing on the Christmas Story during December, paying special attention to where it all took place. Plus, we will make a special keepsake ornament.

5th & 6th Graders will join Kristen Howell in the Youth Room for Sunday School

Fusion 56: A Special Group for our kids 5th and 6th Graders that meets from 12:-1:30pm on the 1st & 3rd Sundays (unless otherwise noted) to meet them where they are and support them as they grow.  Each meeting we will have lunch, a bible lesson and FUN!

This is an age where they feel like they don’t belong.  But they belong here! To see our schedule, go to Fusion 56

 

 

 

We know that all mom’s and caregivers sometimes just need a morning out to catch their breath. We would love to give you that opportunity! We will have three different groups:
Nursery – 6 weeks through 18 months
Pre-school 3/Toddler – 19 months – 2 years
PreK – 3 – 5 years
