Connect with Village Kids

Birth - PreK

Village Kids provides a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where babies through four-year-old Pre-K children are cared for and introduced to the love of Christ.  Through age-appropriate Bible lessons, worship, prayer, Scripture, songs, and hand-on activities, children begin to learn biblical truths. Our goal is to partner with parents, helping them lay a strong biblical foundation during these important developmental years so that children, even at a young age, can know what it means to obey God and follow Christ.

K - 3rd Grade

Village Kids provides a fun, engaging, Christ-centered environment where kindergarten through third grade children are taught the truth of God’s Word. Through Bible lessons, worship, Scripture memory, small group discussion, games, and activities, children are encouraged to grow in their understanding of Jesus and begin to live out their faith. Our goal is to partner with parents in building a strong biblical foundation during these formative years and to help children take meaningful steps towards becoming lifelong followers of Christ.

4th - 5th GRADE

Segway is a Christ-centered ministry designed specifically for fourth and fifth grader preteens as they begin to grow in independence, deepen their understanding of God’s Word, and take greater ownership of their faith. Through engaging Bible teaching, worship, small group discussion, Scripture study, and fun activities, students are encouraged to move beyond learning about God to actively applying His truth in their daily lives. Our goal is to partner with parents, helping preteens build a strong biblical foundation and develop a personal relationship with Jesus.

Where do I go?

Come into the main entrance of the Sactuary and head to the Welcome   Desk and one of our Connections team members will    guide you to the children’s area.

You can    expect to meet    friendly volunteers, knowledgeable  teachers and people that care for your children. Children will be taught  Biblical truth in a fun and caring environment.

Our Children’s ministry  program has babies through 5th graders at both of our Service Times: 9am and 10:30am. Volunteers are back round checked regularly.

If your child has special needs please let the teachers know, it helps them to care for the children. Diapers bags are recommended for children who are in diapers.

Elementary children begin in their classroom with early arrival activities. Then they have group Worship. Then the teaching lesson. Then wrap up with games or activities. Our Elementary curriculum is from Answers in Genesis.

Children could be dropped of 20min before service begins and should be picked up within 10min after service ends.

Serve With Us:

Are you ready to serve with other members of our church who volunteer their time to provide a safe environment for our children to learn Jesus?
