Summer Programs


Kids love playing on our huge playground!

Kids love playing on our huge playground!

During summertime (May through August), an alternating program of K.I.D.S. R.O.T.C. and Kids Cross Country will meet on Wednesday nights.

K.I.D.S. R.O.T.C.

(Kids Involved, Discovering, Sharing, Reaching Outside The Church)
K.I.D.S. R.O.T.C. is an outreach program designed to empower our kids to share God’s Love in our community and society in many ways, by participating in mission action projects, passing out water and goodies, showing appreciation to our community leaders, or simply sharing a smile and “God Loves You!” with those they come in contact with! Thank you to our many adult volunteers who participate with our kids!

Vacation Bible School

Vacation Bible School is a highlight of the summer for our kids! Each year presents a new, exciting setting to reinforce Biblical studies and stimulate spiritual growth through a rotation of activities including a powerful worship rally, age-appropriate class time, music, crafts, recreation, and missions impact.

Kids will head out West for VBS 2010.
Saddle Ridge Ranch is the 2010 Vacation Bible School destination where participants will be roundin’ up questions and drivin’ home answers. Set among snowcapped peaks and wide open spaces, the Bible study focus will be on questions real kids ask: “Who am I? Does God care about me? What is God’s plan for me? How can I be like Jesus? What do I do now?”
The VBS 2010 Scripture is James 1:5 “Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him” (HCSB).

Kids will head to New York City for “The Big Apple Adventure” during VBS 2011.

Big City, Bigger Fun! Grab a cab and get ready for fun around every corner in LifeWay’s Big Apple Adventure, Where Faith and Life Connect. As kids explore the big city, they’ll learn how to step out in faith and connect with Jesus–sharing the message of Christ with their world.

The Theme Verse is: “So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the message of Jesus Christ.” — Romans 10:17 (HCSB)

Preteen Camp

Each summer, the children who have completed 3rd through 6th grades get to go to Preteen Camp.  Our 3rd-6th graders go to PowerPlus Preteen Camp at Pineywoods Camp, and our 6th Graders go to Preteen Camp at Highland Lakes Baptist Camp in Spicewood, Texas.

If you have any questions or need more information about any of the children’s programs, contact Stacey Fisher, our Children’s Minister.
