KIDMIN
Joining the KidMin Team! KidMin (Ministry to Kids and Families) offers a vibrant Sunday morning program for Birth-5th grade Kids. In order to function successfully, grow and thrive, we MUST have additional Team Members!! Here is a look at our plans for the upcoming year, beginning Aug 15.
FOR PRESCHOOL KIDS:
Birth – Older Toddlers Classes will be offered @ 9:30am & 11am – in Young Preschool, Section A.
Older Preschool, 2 years (by 9/1/21) through 4 years (or 5, but not entering Kindergarten) will be in H building. We MUST expand to A & B classes per age group at 9:30am & 11am.
Expectation for Preschool Leaders:
KidMin Staff will prepare Resources that are utilized in the Classroom.
KidMin Leaders will:
Prepare their hearts and study the lesson to lead well;
Build friendships with the children you lead;
Connect with parents/grandparents as you encourage them to carry on the teaching of the day at home (we provide resources).
FOR ELEMENTARY KIDS: (Kindergarten – 5th Grades):
“252 Kids” (Large Group/Small Group format) is offered at 9:30am & 11am.
Kids may attend 1 hour of 252 and the opposite hour, attend worship with their families.
We are providing opportunities for parents to model worship – guide their child how to use their bibles – and help set up families for fruitful Faith Talks and God Moments at home.
Expectation for Elementary Leaders: KidMin Staff will prepare Resources that are utilized during Small Groups. The lesson will guide you to reinforce and apply the Bible teaching presented in Large Group – and build relationships with the kids.
KidMin Leaders will:
Prepare their hearts and study the lesson to apply during small group. All elements of 252 Kids point to the main teaching of the day.
Build friendships with the children you lead (know their names/interests, etc.) and connect with their families
We will move Kindergarten-3rd Grade small groups to classrooms after Large Group – however, ALL LEADERS must be present for the entire Large group session (ahead of kids arrival). You have a responsibility to – greet your children, share in worship, guide kids to participate and listen respectfully to Leaders on stage.
FOR KIDS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS:
Champion’s Club is offered @ 9:30 and 11. We have 2 specialized classrooms to provide a safe and nurturing environment so that kids can learn about God’s love for them in their own unique way. Some children may be mainstreamed in “252 Kids” with a Buddy to partner with them. It’s imperative that we gain additional team members to meet the growing needs of this group. Training is available.
Please consider partnering with us to provide awesome classes for kids – to build relationships and grow in the knowledge of God’s love and perfect plan for their lives.
