At Glen Hope Baptist Church every child will have an opportunity to: KNOW and accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, GROW as a disciple in becoming more like Jesus, and to SHOW God's love in all they say and do!
Here is a list of the many weekly activities and programs that are planned to help your child grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Children's Sunday School
Individual classes (Babies - 5th grade)
Sunday mornings @ 9:15 a.m.
An age graded small group time for children to learn God's word and build relationships with teachers and their peers.
Kids' Church
Sunday morning @ 10:30 a.m.
Children 1st-5th grade
Kids' Church is an exciting part of the Sunday morning worship experience for children. We all meet together in "big church" for the first part of the service, so that kids can experience worship with their families. Then, after the choir special, Pastor Billy leads the children up to the Kids Church room for a time of teaching, prayer, and fun activities. It might be learning about missions--reaching people all around the world with the Good News of Jesus. It might be a time of prayer--praying for each other's needs as well as those of missionary kids in other countries. It might be playing a game where we show how well we have learned concepts from the Bible. Whatever it is, it will be a fun and lively worship experience for kids in 1st to 5th grades!
Joyful Noise
Children's Choir (1st-5th grade)
Wednesdays @ 6:30 p.m.
Children learn to lead in worship through song, dance, drama, and sign language as they prepare for seasonal musicals. If you love to sing and perform, this is your chance to shine! (And if you don't like to be in front of people, that's OK. Most of us didn't either--at first. But you'll soon find that making music is a wonderful way to use the gifts that God has given you to praise Him!) Come on, be a GH.Kid!
TeamKID Preschool: 3yr - K
Sunday: 6:30 p.m. - 7:45 p.m.
TeamKID is designed for children to do more than memorize Scripture. It helps children understand what the verses they memorize mean because all parts of the TeamKID meeting focus on one Bible message. The noncompetitive games, Bible story, memory verse, missions, refreshments, and conclusion all contribute to help preschoolers understand and apply God’s Word to their lives.
F.B.I. -- FUNtastic Bible Investigators
Sunday: 5:45 p.m. - 7:45 p.m.
FBI is not just your ordinary meeting of secret agents. It's a gathering of kids and leaders who are investigating the wonders of God's Word. We'll learn the books of the Bible, identify some important key passages, and hide God's Word in our heart through memorization activities. We'll even practice for the North Carolina Bible Drill Competition. (Don't worry! It's not that hard!) Kids at FBI will gain more confidence in looking up Bible passages and using God's Word in their daily lives. Here's how the time at FBI runs:
5:45 Game Time in the Gym
6:20 Snacks and Opening Assembly in the Fellowship Hall
6:30 Bible Skills Time (Security Checkpoints, Large Group Briefing, & Assignment Tracks)
Every time you come, you can also earn Bible Bucks that you can spend at the FBI store. Come four times, and get a special FBI T-shirt! Earn badges for mastering Bible skills! It's a great way to learn God's Word!
