Ready to Serve?

Jesus said the most important thing we can do is to love God and love others. Your acts of service, no matter how small, are an act of love. That’s why we do what we do. It’s what God made us for.

Connect.

Friends Kids partners with parents in the spiritual development of their kids' faith. Our committed staff and screened volunteers give the care and attention each child needs at every age and stage of development.

Learn.

Our dedicated leaders teach kids about God’s love for them through Bible-based lessons and fun, creative activities that are tailored specifically to their age group.

Engage.

Children interact with other kids who are growing in faith, so they have the chance to develop positive friendships that are based on the same values. Our hope is that these connections extend beyond the weekend.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your child’s safety matters to us. Friends Kids uses secure check-in, matching pickup tags, approved volunteers, and age-appropriate spaces so every child can feel safe, welcomed, and cared for while parents enjoy the service with confidence.

What is Friends Kids?

Friends Kids is a safe, fun, and faith-filled environment where children can learn about Jesus, build friendships, and grow in confidence. Every Sunday, kids experience age-appropriate teaching, worship, activities, and caring leaders who help them feel known and loved.

Is Friends Kids safe?

Yes. Safety is one of our highest priorities. We use a secure check-in and pickup process, approved volunteers, and age-specific rooms to help create a safe and caring environment for every child.

How does check-in and pickup work?

At check-in, your child receives a name tag, and you receive a matching pickup tag. After service, children are released only to the parent or guardian with the correct pickup tag.

Are your volunteers background checked?

Yes. Friends Kids volunteers go through an approval process before serving with children. Our team is committed to creating a trustworthy and caring environment for your family.

Can my child attend if they have allergies or medical needs?

Yes. Please let our team know during registration or check-in. We will add important notes to your child’s profile so our leaders can care for them well.

Can my child bring a friend?

Absolutely. Friends are always welcome. Our team will help new families check in and find the right room.

What ages can attend Friends Kids?

Friends Kids is available for children from birth through 3rd grade. Each environment is designed for the child’s age and stage of development.

What should I do if my family is new?

Plan your visit before Sunday so our team can be ready for you. When you arrive, stop by the Kids check-in area. Our team will help you register, print your child’s name tag, and show you where to go.

What happens during Kids Ministry?

Kids experience a fun and safe environment with worship, Bible teaching, games, small groups, and caring leaders. Everything is designed to help children learn about God in a way they can understand and enjoy.

What if my child needs me during service?

If your child needs you, our team will contact you using the information connected to your check-in. We want you to feel confident while your child is in our care.

What should my child bring?

Your child does not need to bring anything special. For younger children, please bring any needed diapers, bottles, snacks, or comfort items, clearly labeled with their name.

What will my child do during Friends Kids?

Children will participate in age-appropriate Bible teaching, worship, games, crafts, activities, and small-group moments. Our goal is to help every child learn about God in a way that feels joyful, simple, and meaningful.
