Children’s Ministry

The Children's Ministry at Riverbend Baptist exists to introduce K - 6th grade children to Christ and help them establish a firm foundation where their faith can grow.

We offer a number of different Ministry opportunities for children ages 3 – 6th grade. Once a child begins 7th grade, they have the opportunity to become part of Doulos student ministry. Our schedule for both Sunday School and our children’s ministry efforts is as follows:

Sunday:

9:00 AM – Sunday School (K – 6th grade)

10:30 AM – Kidz 4 Him

Wednesday:

6:30 PM – 8:00 PM – AWANA; 4:12 Ministries

In our efforts to establish a Christian foundation for the children that are part of our ministry, we have a number of different avenues designed with this end in mind:

• 4:12 Ministries is a 5th and 6th grade ministry designed to challenge the child in their faith in an environment that is comfortable, unique and exciting. 4:12 Ministries builds on the foundation laid in our K – 4th grade ministry with an added emphasis on scripture, memorization, missions and personal evangelism.
• Kidz 4 Him is a worship service designed for children in Kindegarten – 4th grades. Kidz 4 Him is a high energy, high impact worship program with a weekly drama designed from a child’s perspective and centered on Biblical themes.
• AWANA is an intentional Bible centered youth program for children ages three – 4th grade. The AWANA ministry strive to challenge children to memorize scripture and introduce them to the importance of being on mission with God.

In addition to these ministries, Riverbend Baptist Church also offers a Children’s Music Ministry for children interested in participating in H.I.S. Choir or PreSchool Praize.
