Parents' Night Out

This Saturday, September 26, from 5–8pm, bring your children to Parents’ Night Out for an evening of games, pizza, and tons of fun! PNO is for children ages 6 months through 5th grade, providing a safe and engaging environment while parents enjoy a date night, time with friends, or a well-deserved break. The cost, including pizza, is $20 for one child, $25 for two, or $30 for three or more children. Sign up early to reserve your child’s spot!

 

Bible Verse Memory Plan

Hiding God’s Word in our hearts is an important part of growing in faith. Friendship Kids offers a Bible Memory Plan to encourage children and parents to memorize Scripture together. From Kindergarten through 5th grade, children can memorize more than 70 Bible verses and learn all the Books of the Bible. Bible Memory Cards are available at the display outside Kids Church, with one verse to memorize each month. Parents are encouraged to help their child memorize each verse, discuss its meaning, and apply it to everyday life. Once your child knows the verse “in their head and in their heart,” check it off and have them recite it to Teresa during Kids Church or TeamKid.


“I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” — Psalm 119:11

Parent-Child Dedication

Parent-Child Dedication is a special and heartfelt opportunity for parents to publicly commit to nurturing their child in a loving Christian environment and to dedicate their child to the Lord’s care and guidance. This meaningful celebration is not just for babies—it is open to children of all preschool ages.


Parent Child Dedication will be held soon, and the exact date will be set depending on the availability of those who participate.


We will have a Dedication Ceremony on Saturday night, which will include a delicious dinner and dessert. It will also include a special time of teaching designed to help parents understand the vital role they play in shaping their child’s faith and spiritual development.


The celebration will continue on Sunday during our worship service with a special Prayer of Dedication. This is a wonderful opportunity for parents to reflect on their important role in nurturing their child’s faith, fostering spiritual growth, and creating a home where their child can learn to know and love the Lord.
