Welcome to Faith Kids
There are two key components of what we do for our kids: small groups and parents. Every week, we get kids into small groups so they can find a place to belong. We believe that the best things we can do is connect kids to a great small group leader and partner with parents in every phase of a kid's life.
If it's your kids first time, save some time by registering in advance. You will be able to check in your child at the reigstration area located near the carport. Feel free to grab one of the "first-time guest" parking spots up close.
In order to keep your child safe, your child will be given a nametag with an ID number that is unique to your family. Your child will need to wear the name tag portion while you keep the matching tag for pickup time.

ParentCue App
Every week you can use this app to get cued into conversations you can have with your kids at bed time, dinner time, drive time, and more. We believe that if every parent had one conversation this week, the faith and future of our kids would be so much stronger.
This app also includes videos and memory verses that match what we are learning during our large group and small group times.
Technological Responsibility
Should my kids use social media? When should they be allowed to use it? How can I protect them?
We’ve provided a few resources for you to help you navigate some of your questions.
- Technological Responsibility Road Map ( A Guide to key conversations and ages for technological conversations)
We believe that technology should be a regular conversation in every family. Those conversations look different in every phase so we have these guides to help you navigate appropriate conversations in each age:
We’ve found several articles that we think can help you think about how to help your kids navigate the online world:
Mental Health/Anxiety
We are living in a time where kids are struggling with mental health issues more than ever before. The topics of anxiety, depression, suicide, bullying, and cutting are more necessary than ever before and we want to help you have those conversations in every phase.

Other Ways to Connect
Preschool
FaithKids Preschool, for kids ages two through five, is an early childhood learning center that connects children and their families with the love of Jesus.
Our Preschool offers a safe, loving, Christian environment and is a developmentally appropriate learning center, providing physical and cognitive growth, pre-math, pre-science and language development. We have an exceptional, experienced, caring staff and a low teacher to child ratio, english and non-english speaking children are welcome.
Sports Academy
We believe sports is a great opportunity for kids to grow. As a ministry, we believe we can help give every kid their first great experience with sports by providing a safe environment for them to learn, to compete, and to be loved by a great coach.
We offer quality competitive sport classes throughout the year, using innovated techniques where kids learn to play and have fun in a Christian environment. We are always looking for great coaches and referees that love kids and sports. Contact Jeff Olsen
