Children’s Ministry

Sunday Morning Children’s Ministry:

8:45 and 10:45 am: Infants-6th grade

Children receive age-appropriate Bible teaching about God’s unstoppable love in a fun, loving atmosphere. Each Sunday includes time for free play, worship, a large group teaching, small group time, and an activity. We want Children’s Ministry to be the best hour of your child’s week!  For more information or to register your child, stop by the Children’s Ministry Courtesy Desk on Sunday mornings, or contact Theresa: 920.730.8383 ext. 322.

Current lesson series in Children’s Ministry:

 

Elementary Theme: Mad Props

“Mad Props” is an off-the-wall prop filled adventure through the
story of the Israelites exodus from Egypt. There’s just one problem.
The story props have gone totally, completely, 100% mad!
They’re all mixed up and hidden in one of 4 different prop boxes.
Throughout the story, kids will get to vote for one of the boxes.
Whatever silly prop is inside will then be used to help tell the story.
Through it all, kids will see how God did some of the most out-of-this-world, amazing things you could ever imagine through a man
named Moses.

 

Preschool Theme: Say Cheese!

Say Cheese! It’s picture day for the preschool kids! During the
“Say Cheese” series, kids will make the Bible come to life while
mugging for the camera. By striking different fun and creative
poses, preschool kids will picture what it was like to be Moses and
the Israelites during their miraculous exodus from Egypt and into
the wilderness. More than that, during “Say Cheese,” kids will get a
picture of God’s amazing provision and power.

Volunteer Information:

Sunday Morning Hallway Huddles | 8:15 & 10:15 am: As we dive into summer we still plan on meeting before each service on Sunday Mornings. Our vision behind this is to create a space where we’re able to gather together, briefly talk about the morning while giving you a place to ask any final questions about activities, schedule, etc., and then PRAY and commit ourselves to God and ask for HIM to provide us with what we need to serve the kids well. When you are scheduled to serve, we ask that you make sure you arrive 30 minutes prior to the service: 8:15 am or 10:15 am.

Beautiful and powerful things happen when God’s people gather to pray, and we grow and connect together as a CTR Kids team when we make these huddle times a priority.
