What is FAITH KIDS?
Faith Kids focuses on children from birth through 5th grade. It provides a time to learn and respond to God’s word through hands on experiences. The directors focus on teaching children to love God and love others, and students learn more about how God wants them to live through large group and small group experiences, skill nights and service opportunities.
Carrie VanDerKolk is our Pre-Teen Ministries Director for 3rd-5th grade. You can reach her at cvanderkolk@faithrc.org

We can’t wait to Kick Off our new year with a CARNIVAL!
Wednesday Nights @ Faith
Wednesday evenings September through March (6:30-7:45 pm). Children in preschool through 5th grade enjoy a fun night of worship, Biblical teaching, small group discussions, games, and social engagement. Family nights, usually once each month, often include dinner and a variety of fun activities. Special outings and service projects are also planned throughout the year.
We use the Wonder Ink curriculum and aim to help children discover their identity in God’s big story and foster a deeper understanding of their place in it. Children will discover that they are known by God, loved by Jesus, led by the Holy Spirit, and that they are children of God.
Sunday Mornings @ Faith
Faith Kids Sunday School:
Sunday School for PreK through 5th grade is held during spiritual formation hour (10:00 – 10:45 a.m.) September through early May.
The Gospel Project for Kids is a Christ-centered Bible study resource that looks at the big picture of God’s story – the story of redemption through Jesus Christ. We will follow a chronological timeline of Bible events, while learning how each story points to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Faith Kids Children’s Worship: Word & Wonder
Faith Kids Children & Worship: For children 4-year-olds through 2nd grade during both worship services, September through May.
We are beginning a new curriculum this fall called Word & Wonder, written by our own Kylie Hoesch. Designed for deeper biblical engagement and spiritual growth, it will create meaningful learning opportunities for our children.

Faith Kids Nursery
At Faith Church, we are committed to providing a safe, loving, and nurturing environment for our youngest children. Our nursery is available during worship services for infants through age 3, so parents can worship with confidence, knowing their children are well cared for. The nursery is also open during our Spiritual Formation hour from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m., allowing parents to participate in classes while their children play, learn, and experience God’s love in a caring environment. We look forward to welcoming your family!
Our caring and screened volunteers create a warm atmosphere where little ones can play and learn. We understand that every child is unique, and we strive to make each family feel welcomed, comfortable, and valued from the moment they arrive. Whether you are a first-time guest or a regular attender, we look forward to partnering with you as you help your child begin a lifelong journey of faith.
