Birth - 5th Grade
Welcome to River Kids!
God has a special love for children. Jesus always took time out to bless the children. At River of Life we have a tremendous love for children and provide something for every age group where they can learn about our Lord at their level.
We have a brand new look with lots of fun and great worship, relevant and fun Bible stories and object lessons. Currently, we are going story-by-story through the Bible!
Check in is through the main doors and to the right, just past the cafe.

Your child is important to us. On your first visit, we will have you sign in as a one time guest. You will be given a welcome form from River Kids explaining the rooms and ages we serve along with a registration form that should be filled out that includes the following information:
parent/legal guardian names, children’s names and birth-dates, address, phone number and any special instructions (allergies, special needs) for each child.
Please drop the registration form off at the Welcome Center after worship service and we will enter the information into our River Kids database to help maintain our secure check-in system. The next time you come to check you children in, the system will have your child's information and you will be able to check-in quickly.
We use a security tag system for child check-in and pick-up, and will display the unique code on the front screens for parents/guardians in case we need to reach you during the worship service.

Bible Lessons: In Rapids, we are going story by story through the Bible! Our kids each have their own binder with fill-in-the-blanks for each Sunday sermon so they can learn to take notes and follow along. Fill-in-the-blanks are provided for new kids too, and if you come for 4 weeks in a row, then you'll get your own binder with all your sermon notes inside.
Where's-It-At: Every Sunday we do a "Where's-It-At" challenge where we put a Bible verse on the screen and every kid has to look it up and read it in their own Bible. This not only encourages kids to bring their own Bible, but also helps them to learn how to look up scriptures and read them on their own! (Bibles are provided for kids who don't have one, but you'll get extra points if you bring yours from home!)
Worship: We love to worship Jesus, and want to teach our River-Kids what it means to worship God in spirit and in truth. We usually sing at least two songs of worship every service in the Rapids River Kids room.

Check Our Our Kids Camp Video From Last Year!
In the beginning of 2022, our children's offering went to support Mike and Sonja Trei - a missionary couple who preach the Gospel to the people of Peru in South America!
Meet The Missionaries Our River Kids Have Supported!
Mike and Sonja Trei must travel by boat on the rivers of the jungle to reach the different tribes in Peru with the gospel. There are no roads to most of the villages they travel to.
