• Kidstuff


    “for to children belongs the kingdom of heaven” -Matthew 19:14

    Kidstuff exists because most parents are eager for all the help they can get in fulfilling their God-given roles of training their children to know and love God. We are excited for the opportunity to come alongside parents and help them nurture faithful disciple of Jesus Christ.

    How do we do that?
    Each Sunday almost 100 volunteers combine hearts and hands to offer Kidstuff. We offer the identical program three times each Sunday, during the same times as the worship services:

    8:30 am
    10:45 am
    5:30 pm

    Worship as a Family

    We encourage all parents to take their school-aged children into one of the worship services with them. If you have never done that before or have found that to be difficult, the attached document will offer some practical ideas about how to make the service time a meaningful family worship experience.

    Bring Your Children to Kidstuff Classes

    Then we also encourage all parents to have their children attend Kidstuff classes during one of the other times. These classes are designed to be fun for children but also have strong biblical content. During the weekly 1½ hour program, the children visit several different locations:

    Grade-level Classroom

    Children are divided by grade level (and gender for older elementary grades) into classes where they are taught meaningful Bible lessons based on God’s Word. The following classes are available:

    K-5 (begin in Sept. of K-5 year rather than 5th birthday)

    1st Grade

    2nd Grade

    3rd Grade

    4th-5th Grade Girls

    4th-5th Grade Boys

    In addition to the weekly curriculum, each grade has a set of doctrinal objectives that they learn each quarter. You can view the current quarter objectives by visiting the grade-level pages on this website.  

    Champ & Nina’s Art Studio

    Champ and Nina are a wonderful older couple who loves kids. They open their Art Studio each week for special classes that are offered on a rotating basis—Music, Crafts, Activities, and Inventions. Each of these classes offers exciting hands on involvement for the children with the specific purpose of bringing to life the doctrinal truths they are learning each quarter.

    The Warehouse

    Behind the Art Studio is an old warehouse where Champ & Nina’s grandson Arty loves to play. Children visit the Warehouse each week to learn from skits involving Arty and his friends—Mona Lisa (a life-size paintbrush) and Rags (a stray dog). These skits and other special times of instruction in the Warehouse reinforce the biblical truths being taught in the classroom through memorable characters and themes.

    Please note that children should only attend kidstuff once each Sunday. The program is the same each time it is offered, and we simply do not have the space for children to attend twice.

    We are excited about the opportunity to serve your family!
