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
Prayer is how we talk to God! Big and small He hears them; long and short He hears them. Spoken and unspoken, our prayers are heard by our Heavenly Father - so why not tell him about some of our favorite people!?
This month, we will take some intentional time to pray over the families of Bethesda. We'll pray for laughter and joy and good rest. We'll pray for peace and comfort at home, and confidence and strength at work and school. We'll pray for our kids and our students, our adults and our friends.
If you have any prayer requests this month, please let us know.
It is an honor to pray for friends.

WALKING IN FAITH
This month, we're revisiting our series from the beginning of 2025 on the book Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer. The 4&5's Crew will talk about Jesus as our teacher, and think about all the things we can learn from him - how we can be with Jesus, how we can be like Jesus, and how we can do as Jesus did every single day!
"You would spend every waking moment with your rabbi - sleeping at his side, eating at his table, sitting at his feet - and end up, after long hours walking behind him from town to town, covered in his dust." -- excerpt from Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer, page 9.
1ST - 3RD GRADE SPACE
RUNNING IN FAITH
This month, our 1st-3rd Grade Crew will take a few weeks to refresh our memories on what it means to be "dusty" in our walk with Jesus and learn HOW we can be like Jesus, become like Jesus, and do as Jesus did. This group will be taking a closer look at what John Mark Comer calls "The Nine" - spiritual practices that we see in Jesus's life that will help us take steps closer to him every single day!
"The original name for the community of Jesus' apprentices was "the Way" or "followers of the Way... The Way of Jesus is not just a theology (a set of ideas that we believe in our heads). It is that, but it's more. And it's not just ethics (a list of dos and don'ts that we obey or disobey). It is that, but it's still more. It's exactly what it sounds like - a way of life." -- excerpt from Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer, pages 24-25.
