Think back to when you were a kid. Who made a lasting impact on you? Maybe it was a teacher who believed in you, a coach who encouraged you, or a family member who always had the best advice. Now imagine, being that person for the next generation – someone who shows up, speaks life, and points kids to Jesus. That’s what kids ministry is all about!

In Matthew 19:14, Jesus says, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

Jesus saw kids as a priority. He welcomed them, blessed them, and made time for them. Kids mattered to Jesus. He saw their value, their potential, and their importance in the Kingdom.

The reality is, most people who gives their lives to Christ do so at a young age. Kids are open, curious, and hungry for truth. Kids ministry is front-line Kingdom work! Children are in the most crucial years of shaping their faith. They are full of curiosity, asking big questions, and forming the foundation of their beliefs. Every week, kids come to church looking for connection, fun, and truth. Some may be hearing about Jesus for the first time, while others need to be reminded that God sees them, knows them, and has an amazing plan for their lives.

And here’s the best part: You don’t need a theology degree to make an impact. If you can listen, encourage, and share a smile, you’re already qualified. Whether it’s leading a lesson, helping with crafts, playing games, or simply welcoming kids as they arrive, there’s a place for you.

Ways you can get involved –
  • Join our Sunday School or Launchpad volunteer team! – We have volunteers who do everything from welcoming kids and helping them feel safe and excited to be at church, to bringing Scripture to life in a way they can understand. We have volunteers who lead crafts and games and volunteers who work behind the scenes.

  • Sign up to serve at our special events – Serve at the Resurrection Celebration, Glow in the Dark Egg Hunt, and VBS!

  • Pray – Ask God if He is calling you to serve in kids ministry. Pray for the kids, their families, and our volunteer teams.

The opportunity is here, the need is great, and the impact is life-changing!
