GraceLand Kids
“Supplementing the family in reaching kids to become fully devoted followers of God.” That's the purpose of GraceLand Kids ages 6 months through 5th graders. Through small groups, crafts, stories, games and service, the Bible and God's love is made relevant to these little hearts and minds. Family events and special outings are planned throughout the year to enrich family connection. We also offer childcare during the worship service from 11:15am-1:00pm for children 6 months to 5 years of age, in Classroom #2.
Attention to all Kindergarten-5th grade kids and parents
A new and exciting program has begun in K-5 studying "The Fruit of the Spirit". Children often learn to recite the list of Fruits of the Spirit at church, but it is not always easy for them to understand these character traits and Christian values.
We will be learning one virtue every week with memory verses, discussing how to apply them in daily living and send home activities to reinforce what was learned. Please remember our program starts at 10 am with prizes for early comers. Also, check out our website under children's ministry for new fun activities.
