First time dropping your child off?
We don’t want to spoil the secret but church doesn’t have to be boring! Kidside is for children birth through 5th grade during each of our weekend services.
*Please note during our Christmas services we offer children’s programming birth – PreK.
Our staff and amazing volunteers are committed to creating a fun and safe environment for children to learn about God. Each month’s theme is taught through worship, interactive lessons, small groups, games, crafts, snacks, plus something to take home.
To save time, please pre-register and then meet us at the Kidside Guest Kiosk so we can get you checked in.
WHAT WE ARE LEARNING THIS MONTH
PRESCHOOL
SERIES DESCRIPTION:
The immoral woman who had been kicked out of the friend group. The greedy man who stole from his family. The uneducated. The poor. The sick. The outcast. Jesus called them all friends while He was on Earth. And Jesus still calls everyone who follows Him “friends,” today and forever.
BOTTOM LINE:
Jesus wants to be my friend forever.
MEMORY VERSE:
“I have called you friends.” John 15:15, NIV
ELEMENTARY
SERIES DESCRIPTION:
When Jesus died on the cross, He made peace between God and us. We can have peace—and we can share the peace of God with others. We can reflect the character of Jesus by caring enough to make peace.
VIRTUE:
Peace
MEMORY VERSE:
“If possible, live in peace with everyone. Do that as much as you can.” Romans 12:18, NIrV

To help your child get the most out of the Kidside experience we recommend picking a service and sticking to it (as much as possible). Our Kidside Change Makers serve at the same service with the same kids for the whole year (June-May). So for them to make great relationships and really experience community within the context of a small group, we recommend attending the same service so they will have the same leader and the same kids in their group. We desire to help your kids take steps in their spiritual journey and our weekend small groups are the best way to do that!
