Here in Kingdom Connection Children’s Ministry our mission is to establish an environment ripe for encountering Father God and to train up children that are rooted and grounded in Christ’s love. We strive to present the gospel in exciting ways to develop true disciples of Christ, a “Daniel Generation”. It is our desire that every child will be encouraged, loved, equipped and changed for the glory of God and for the advancement of His Kingdom. Whether that be through laying a solid foundation in the Word of God or by sparking a spiritual fire through worship and prayer, we are determined to see our children grow in their personal relationships with Christ. We love to have fun learning together!
Investing in our future
Who's Involved?
Every Sunday morning and Wednesday night we provide a safe environment for children from birth through sixth grade where they learn about Jesus and connect with each other.
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our ministry, and it’s an honor to serve with each and every one of them as they love on children each week! Every volunteer who leads in our Children's Ministry has had a background check and is committed to making the ministry a safe, Biblically relevant, and fun environment for your children.
"Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court."
Psalms 127:3-5
How should I prepare my Child?
Each service your child will need to be checked into our Children's Ministry. After praise, the children will be released to their age-specific classroom. A volunteer will check-in your child on the Kidddo app. The app stores information regarding the children's ages and specific allergies. When you return at the end of service you will check-out your child with the teacher.
Thank you so much for helping us as we strive to make our Children's Ministry a safe environment for your children to learn about God.
Kingdom COnnection Children's Ministry Lessons
The unit we are currently teaching the children is called Upward - Keeping our eyes on Jesus
Life has its ups and downs. It can be discouraging when hard times come. The life of Joseph shows us that no matter how many ups and downs we face, we can always keep our eyes on God. When we walk with Him, we know that God is moving
us in the right direction. Kids will learn “No matter what life throws at me, I can keep my eyes on Jesus.”
Memory Verse: “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him.” Romans 8:28a (NIRV)
Below there is a PDF containing the full lesson plan we will be using to teach your kids for the next 8 weeks. Parents, you can use this to teach your children if you miss a Sunday or use it to review with your children throughout each week.

Downward
Joseph’s life was filled with ups and downs. Up: His father loved him very much. Down: His brothers did not. Even when Joseph found himself down in a well, he never lost faith in God.
Scripture: Genesis 37:3-4, 12-35, Joseph Sold By His Brothers
Objective: Kids will learn that life has ups and downs, but God always remains good.
-
Forward
Even though Joseph was now in a foreign country, his life seemed to be moving forward. Joseph was working for an important Egyptian official. But when the official’s wife spread lies about him, Joseph ended up in prison. But even from prison, God was with Joseph and blessed Him.
Scripture: Genesis 39:1-6, & 17-33 Joseph in Potiphar’s House
Objective: Kids will learn that even when life is hard, we can still see God’s blessings.
-
Onward
Even though Joseph was in prison, he kept moving onward. In jail, Joseph helped his fellow prisoners, serving them and interpreting their dreams. Eventually, he had a chance to help the Pharaoh, which changed Joseph’s life forever.
Scripture: Genesis 40:1-8, Joseph in Prison, Genesis 41:1-41, Joseph Before Pharaoh
Objective: Kids will learn that whether life is up or down, we can still help others for God.
-
Upward
Looking back over Joseph’s life, there were so many downward moments: being sold by his brothers, living as a slave in a foreign country, and going to jail for something he didn’t do. But Joseph never lost his faith in God. In the end, if it had not been for those difficult times, Joseph would not have been in the right place to save the people of Egypt and his own family.
Scripture: Genesis 42:1-11, 45:1-15, Joseph Reunited with His Brothers
Objective: Kids will learn that – even in the bad times – God is working things out for our good.
