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

FAITH KIDS REGISTRATION
Thank you!
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.
For 2025-2026, we are using the Wonder Ink curriculum. We 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 Nursery
Nursery is available during our Sunday church services.
Faith Kids Children & Worship
Faith Kids Children & Worship: For children 4-year-olds through 2nd grade during both worship services, September through May. Children are dismissed partway through for a structured worship experience using a hands-on Montessori approach.
This year in our Children & Worship centers, we will explore both familiar and lesser-known Bible stories. Children will encounter beloved accounts such as Noah, Moses, and Daniel in the lion’s den, while also discovering hidden treasures of Scripture, including Anna and Simeon and Paul’s shipwreck.

Faith Kids Sunday School:

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.
