Kids Ministry services are now available Saturday mornings! Each week's online Kids Ministry service will now be available for viewing, right along with the Weekly Family Connection! Kids now have the opportunity to see some familiar faces on our Uptown stage as we worship, review our memory verse and virtue for the month, and focus on each week's bottom line. We hope that kids can view our online service, then connect with their small group Zooms that are happening each Sunday. Simply click the link below to tune in to this week's service! We are excited for a fresh way to bring Kids Ministry into your homes!
These days we are all missing so much of our regular routine. That includes seeing smiling familiar faces on Sunday mornings! We are excited to offer families of Crosswinds Kids Ministry an opportunity to connect during our time away from church! Kids are now able to connect on a smaller scale! We are providing a weekly opportunity for our preschoolers, one for Kindergarten through 2nd grade, and another for 3rd through 5th graders! For our preschoolers, look for a special prerecorded video from your small group leaders included in the Weekly Family Connection. This week Ms. Sue will be sharing with our preschoolers! For our kids in Kindergarten through 2nd grade, Ms. Mandy will be leading this Zoom at 11:30am! If you have a child in 3rd through 5th grade, you will receive an invite for a Zoom meeting that will take place at 10am on Sundays! This week, Ms. Beth and Mr. Dan will be leading this Zoom! In order to get the most out of these opportunities, we are asking families to make every effort to tune in to our brand-new Kids Ministry online service, or view the video presentations provided for your age group BEFORE! This is why we are sending the Weekly Family Connection out a day early, to give more time to view. We are excited to provide families with new ways to engage with Kids Ministry at Crosswinds!
Please note: This week will be our last of our scheduled Zoom small groups, as we look forward to gathering in person in just a few short weeks!
kids church at home!
Below you will find some things that are very familiar to your child and resources to help you have a fun "kids service" in your home! Depending on your child's age, check out the "parent guide." You can then watch the included videos and leverage the activities and God Time Cards.

For your reference, " First Look" is our preschool curriculum, " Elementary" is geared toward K-3, and "Preteen" targets 4th and 5th grade, but is also appropriate for 3rd grade.
