The Vision
Although a video will be here very soon, here is a brief overview of what it looks like for a child (and family) to reap the most out of children's ministries.
First, our most open worship service will be Father's House. This service starts at 9:30 am on Sunday and grades kindergarten through fifth grade are welcome. (Sure! If parents want to attend, then their younger and older kids can stick with them too!) Father's House will be open to children and their families to come and be a part. Parents are welcome to come sit with their kids. Let's face it. If you are new here, you don't know us. We know that. So, this service is made to help you feel at home at our church. It will have high energy worship, creative storytelling and impacting drama that is made to drive a central, biblical theme home.
After this service, kids will go to a place that they unpack what they just learned and go deeper. So, that is why it is called Deeper. Deeper will revolve around small group time. The kids will start out in small groups, which are age sensitive. They will then come together for a short worship time complete with a Bible story. After this they will go back to their small groups to really talk and interact with what they have learned.
Lastly, Wednesday night will round it off. This is called KidCore. KidCore is a system of classes that the kids sign up for. They will have the option to attend classes such as puppets, worship/tech and drama. Of course, basic Bible study is a required course. They will take the classes for a period of nine weeks and learn a specific skill set. At the end of the 9 weeks, the kids will come together to show case what they have learned to you, the parents! This is the nuts and bolts of what kid's need to learn to be a productive, fruit-producing Christian! I guess you could say it is the core of being a Christian.
