Children's Ministries
"People were bringing little children to Jesus to have him touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these" And he took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them." (Mark 10:13-14, 16)
OK, Jesus didn’t get angry too often, so when he did we should take note. Needless to say, as followers of Jesus we want to have the same passion to bless the children in our lives as he did. And we believe that we do, and that the proof of this passion is seen in what we do for and with our children (ages 0+ through 5th grade).
During the week we have Wonder-Land School, a fully licensed Pre-School and Day Care program that includes before and after school programs up to the 6th grade.
Outside of Wonder-Land, we have our King’s Kids Children’s Ministry, which includes everything from our Sunday morning programs to special events. For parents who are new to ARCC, make sure you check out our Sunday morning Survival Guide to get a quick overview of what happens on Sunday mornings, and when you get the time read the COMPREHENSIVE “Welcome to Kid’s Church”. Don’t forget to look at the Church Calendar for upcoming events.
Some cool websites for kids to check out (Note: we strongly encourage parents or legal guardians to closely monitor their children when they are on the web)…
