                                                                                    Welcome to Kidz4Christ, the Children’s Ministry at St. John's reaching out to kids — infants through 6th grade. What makes us unique? We want to partner with families to bring children to Jesus to know Him and make Him known! We teach children not only to understand biblical truths, but how to live them out in their everyday lives. We promise to be Bible-based, child-centered, relational, relevant, creative, and of course…fun!

                                                                                    At St. John's we are committed to helping families raise growing followers for Jesus so we provide fun, Bible-based experiences for children to experience: WONDER, DISCOVERY and PASSION.

                                                                                    We offer Sunday School for children pre-k through 6th grade on Sunday mornings during the 9:15 a.m. service  PreK/K - Join Kia and Lil k on adventures where they learn how much God loves them.

                                                                                    1st - 6 Grade  Are on the set at Big City Studio that is a high energy children's church atmosphere.

                                                                                    We also have a great time of Fun & Fellowship on Wednesday evenings.

                                                                                    Our programs are run by caring fun adults who help children meet a Loving God who loves them and wants to be part of their life...Forever!

                                                                                    nursery logo
                                                                                    Our nursery is divided into two separate rooms with a common toddler bathroom in the middle — infants to one year old on one side and two to three-year old on the other. Our little ones play games and hear Bible stories in this nurturing environment.  We take great pride in keeping our children safe, happy and teaching them about God’s love. The nursery is offered during the 9:15 a.m. & 10:45 a.m. Sunday Services as well as some special events.
