Here in Kingdom Connection Children’s Ministry our mission is to establish an environment ripe for encountering Father God and to train up children that are rooted and grounded in Christ’s love. We strive to present the gospel in exciting ways to develop true disciples of Christ, a “Daniel Generation”. It is our desire that every child will be encouraged, loved, equipped and changed for the glory of God and for the advancement of His Kingdom. Whether that be through laying a solid foundation in the Word of God or by sparking a spiritual fire through worship and prayer, we are determined to see our children grow in their personal relationships with Christ. We love to have fun learning together!
Investing in our future
Who's Involved?
Every Sunday morning and Wednesday night we provide a safe environment for children from birth through sixth grade where they learn about Jesus and connect with each other.
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our ministry, and it’s an honor to serve with each and every one of them as they love on children each week! Every volunteer who leads in our Children's Ministry has had a background check and is committed to making the ministry a safe, Biblically relevant, and fun environment for your children.
"Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court."
Psalms 127:3-5
How should I prepare my Child?
Each service your child will need to be checked into our Children's Ministry. After praise, the children will be released to their age-specific classroom. A volunteer will check-in your child on the Kidddo app. The app stores information regarding the children's ages and specific allergies. When you return at the end of service you will check-out your child with the teacher.
Thank you so much for helping us as we strive to make our Children's Ministry a safe environment for your children to learn about God.
Kingdom COnnection Children's Ministry Lessons
The unit we are currently teaching the children is called 'Fear<Less' - Using the Bible to Conquer Common Fears.
Some common childhood fears are creepy crawlies, things that go bump in the night, being alone, and facing bullies. Whatever fears they deal with, kids will learn that our God is a God who gives protection, courage, and best of all, peace.
With God, I can conquer my fear.
Memory Verse: “God gave us His Spirit. And the Spirit doesn’t make us weak and fearful. Instead, the Spirit gives us power and love. He helps us control ourselves.” 2 Timothy 1:7 (NIrV)
Below there is a PDF containing the full lesson plan we will be using to teach your kids for the next 8 weeks. Parents, you can use this to teach your children if you miss a Sunday or use it to review with your children throughout each week.

Bugs
Some of us are scared of bugs and spiders. Even if we’re not, none of us would want to encounter a swarm of them. Pharaoh’s people encountered not only locusts, but gnats, flies, frogs, and many other things. But God’s people sought
out God and they were protected. Whatever might scare us, we can turn to God and trust him to give us courage.
Scripture: Exodus 10:3-19, The Plague of Locusts
Objective: Kids will say, “With God’s protection, I will not be afraid.”
-
Bullies
The people of Israel had turned away from God and worshiped the idol, Baal. Only Elijah was brave enough to go against the crowd and stand up for the truth: There is only one true God. It can be scary to stand up to bullies especially when we have to
face them alone, but God gives us the courage to do what’s right.
Scripture: 1 Kings 18:16-39, Elijah on Mount Carmel
Objective: Kids will say, “With courage from God, I can stand up for what’s right.”
-
Being Alone
After his victory at Mount Carmel, the queen wanted to kill Elijah. Elijah fled into the wilderness alone. He was scared and sad. But God sent an angel to supply for his needs; then God appeared to Elijah to let him know that he is never alone.
Scripture: 1 Kings 19:1-18, The Lord Appears to Elijah
Objective: Kids will say, “With God’s love, I know I am never alone.”
-
Not Being Loved
Some of us may be afraid that we’ve made too many mistakes. Maybe we feel like God can’t love us or forgive us because of mistakes that we’ve made. Isaiah was scared and overcome with guilt for the sin in his life when he got a glimpse of how awesome and holy God is. But God showed Isaiah that He is gracious and forgiving and that He had a plan and purpose for Isaiah.
Scripture: Isaiah 6:1-8, Isaiah’s Commission
Objective: Kids will say, “With God’s grace, I know I am loved.”
