| Our Environments |
There are three kinds of environments for kids in our ministry to get involved in.
Sunday Mornings
Our Sunday morning time is designed to help kids grow spiritually, make new friends and supplement the teachings they learn at home.
Wednesday Nights
Every other Wednesdays from 6-7:30 PM is our Faith Family Ministry. Held at the church, our kids Kindergarten-5th Grade go deeper into God's Word through group worship & age-orientated break-out classes.
Special Events/Summer
Hosted either at Stateline or our Janesville campus events are designed to help kids connect with each other & with their families. In the summer we offer a week-long overnight camp, Kidz Camp, for kids going into grades 3rd-7th.
| What to Expect |
We value families worshiping together and children seeing the Church - young and old - side by side. At our 10:30 AM service after singing and announcements kids are dismissed to their age-appropriate classrooms.
Our Weekly Sunday Program
Check-In
Sunday mornings parents/guardians check-in their child(ren) Infant-5th grade at our iPad kiosk before service.
Child name tags and an id # ticket that matches your child’s will be dispensed. After worship and announcements children are dismissed from the sanctuary to one of our three age-appropriate classrooms. Kids can follow our Faith Kids Volunteers who will direct them accordingly or parents can walk back to the classroom to drop them off.

Our Classrooms
TINYS | INFANTS - 2 YEARS
A welcoming, safe environment for our littlest ones. Although there is no structured curriculum for this age volunteers pray and care for each child based on their needs that morning. Parents are welcome to drop off a sippy cup or snack. We also provide optional snacks. Parents will be notified if a diaper change is needed. When numbers of children or volunteers are low, this age group combines together into our Littles Room.
LITTLES | PRESCHOOLERS 3 - 5 YEARS
Once settled into the room kids enjoy a small snack and cup of water while diving into our Bible lesson. After a short, engaging teaching video our Leader goes through our Big Idea of the week and monthly memory verse. Kids are free to explore through play until parents arrive.
BIGS | KINDERGARTEN - 5TH GRADE
Our older kids get into the Bible each week and help make our weekly Bible story, Big Idea, and monthly memory verse “stick” through games, crafts, and other creative means.

Our Curriculm
At Faith we use a curriculum for our Kids and Youth called The Gospel Project. It is a chronological Bible study showing how all Scripture gives testimony to Jesus. It's core values include:
- Christ Centered
It’s all about Jesus and every story points back to Him. - Heart Transforming
This study is designed to encourage true transformation that comes only from the gospel, not from behavior modification. - Age Aligned
Each week, every participant–from preschoolers to youth–can study from the same section of Scripture. - Chronological
All age levels study the narrative of the Bible in order, from Genesis to Revelation. - Theologically Rich
All studies are presented in an age-aware manner, and every session is doctrinally sound and thorough. - Missionally Minded
Every session calls participants to respond by sharing and living out the gospel.
