KidCity is our ministry for birth through 5th grade.

Through age-appropriate weekend environments and outreach events for kids, our goal is to engage kids with the gospel in a way that brings the Bible to life and makes it relevant to them right where they are. We believe ministry is done best in the context of relationships, and we know that our influence combined with a parent’s influence is the best way to encourage kids to grow in their relationship with Jesus.

Is your child ready to take the amazing step of baptism? We’re so thrilled to celebrate this exciting milestone with you! Baptism is one of the most important decisions your child will ever make, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Explore the videos and resources below, and when you’re ready, click the “Next Steps” button. Our team is eager to connect with you and help you move forward on this incredible journey!

Commit to raising your child in the Word

Parent dedication is more than just a commitment to raise your child in the Word. It’s also an opportunity for the church to come alongside you, to support you, and to pray for you and your child. 

Stay tuned for 2025 Parent Dedication dates, coming soon!

Encourage your child to bring a friend

We believe that kids are not just the church of tomorrow, but the church of TODAY! We want to call kids to more to help us REACH our communities. When kids invite friends to church from their sports teams, clubs, schools and neighborhoods, this is an expression of owning their faith and passing it on to others.   

Not every month has a 5th Sunday, but the ones that do are extra fun in KidCity. If your child has been wanting to bring a friend to church, 5th Sunday is the perfect occasion.

Basic Truths

All kids want to know the truths about their IDENTITY, BELONGING and PURPOSE. When those truths sink deep into the hearts of kids, it gives them the tools they need to face the ever-changing world around them. We want every kid to be confident in his/her:

IDENTITY

I am made by God to...

  • Be unique (one of a kind)
  • Reflect His image (act like Him)
  • Worship Him (to live in a way that shows Him love and honor)

BELONGING

I am loved by God no matter what so...

  • I can love God, love others and love life
  • I can belong in God’s family forever
  • I can trust God to guide me
  • I can be confident that God knows who I am

PURPOSE

I am made for a purpose so...

  • I have value
  • The Holy Spirit will help me do big things now
  • I can tell people about God
