Welcome to kidchurch
Here at Bethesda, we want to partner with you in raising the next generation of Jesus followers. From the littlest of babies to our oldest KidChurch kids, we want you to know that you are not alone.
Our volunteers are excited to care for your little ones! It is our desire that you are able to take the time each Sunday to fully engage in the worship and teaching experience! Each of our spaces has age appropriate toys, activities and lessons aimed to enhance your child's relationship with God and with others. If there are any specific needs for your child, just let us know! We're so glad you're here!

CRAWLING IN FAITH
Just as we learn to crawl before we can walk, we believe that the foundation for growing in our faith is understanding who God is!
In the beginning, God created everything! That means He knows about the birds and the flowers and you and me! We can have faith that God knows everything about us, the spoken and the unspoken, because He created us! He is always ready to help us, even when things feel really hard. God can calm a storm. God can move mountains and He can make the sun stand still!
Who is God? GOD IS POWERFUL and He uses His power for your good!

WALKING IN FAITH
If you’ve ever baked a cake, you know that each ingredient is important. It’s not just the ingredients themselves that are important, though. The amounts of each ingredient and how to mix them all together and how long to be patient while it bakes - all of these things are important, too. In this way, our faith is a little like baking a cake. We have all of the right ingredients to be a follower of Jesus, and the bible tells us how to use all of the ingredients best! This month, we’ll look at the life of Elijah, and see just how important patience and trust is in the life of a believer!

AUGUST GROWKIDS SERIES: FIRED UP
Fire up the ovens! We're headed to the kitchen to bake up something special. Kitchens are incredible places where the most basic ingredients are transformed into delicious treats. Our faith can be a lot like that, too! In this 5-week series, kids will follow the life of the prophet Elijah, whose ministry involved a lot of fire and bread as he formed a special relationship with God. They'll learn how knowing God helps me find what I need, hears my voice, guides me when I'm scared, comforts me, and is always with me are all the ingredients they need to get fired up!
