Faith Formation for Kids and Families
Kids are a vital part of our church and represent the next generation of those who will shape our community’s future. We know that “it takes a village” to nurture a child’s growth and faith, which is why we offer a wide range of real-life discipleship experiences for children and our church family.
We welcome and enjoy interacting with kids at all Sunday gatherings. Included is a dedicated children’s message with Pr. Garrett. Coloring books, crayons, and small books for kids to read are always available, as well. The family-style meal of Brunch Church and the monthly service projects provide additional opportunities to build friendships with all ages.
Weekly Family Resources
In our weekly email, currently we are providing faith resources for families to utilize during our gatherings. These are from Illustrated Ministry and include a coloring page, questions about the lessons, and other fun activities. For copyright reasons, we cannot post post post post them on this page publicly.
2nd and 4th Sundays of Each Month
We are excited to host a short child-friendly activity as part of our worship gatherings on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month! This time will allow our kids to dig a little deeper into the day’s biblical teachings on their level. The children will be invited to participate following the children’s time in the worship service. Please let Pr. Garrett know if you have any questions, ideas, or would like to help.
Children’s Events
While children are invited to all our gatherings, we do plan additional events with them specifically in mind. These include Vacation Bible School, evening Parent’s Night Out, family-style picnics, service projects, and fellowships. We also partner with our Family Ministry at our Greenbriar Campus on special occasions to share in joint opportunities.
Vacation Bible School 2023!
We are looking forward to another exciting Vacation Bible School at our Greenbrier campus, June 26-30. Kids will join the Food Truck Party for five wonderful days of songs, games, Bible stories, crafts, and much more. Please Register Here for your child(ren) to participate.
