Kids – Don’t Miss Out!
This summer, kids will become Challengers as they gear up for frosty games, snowy surprises, and hands-on lessons about resilience and faith. Led by Pastor Candi and the lovable Ollie the Arctic Seal puppet, who is reporting on the events.
Using their Challenge Companion (the Bible), kids will learn to draw strength from their faith through powerful stories! This summer will be transformed into a mountaintop experience filled with laughter, life lessons, and lasting faith.
As children face their challenges and discover their strength in God, you’ll hear them say, “Challenge accepted – with God I am strong.”
What Can I Expect at Kids Summer Adventure?
For the Kids:
At Kids Summer Adventure, kids will begin the evening with fun energetic music and skits that will have them engaged, laughing and learning about how much God loves them. They will then make their way through several stations with kids in their age group as they play fun games, create amazing crafts and hear Bible stories of great adventure. The evening ends with more energetic music and a wrap up of the evening including a photo slide show of the night.
Kids are grouped by age: Preschool & Kindergarten / 1st & 2nd Grade / 3rd & 4th Grade / 5th & 6th Grade
*We will place children with friends at your request if they are in the same age group, but we cannot move kids into different age groups.
Safety and Security:
We take the security and safety of your children seriously.
