What is all this K.I.D.Z. Street business, anyway?

We are trying to put a face on our ministry to and with children. Many of you have seen a brochure entitled KING'Z K.I.D.Z.. This name is an umbrella for all we do with children from nursery through 5th grade from VBS to everything in between.

K.I.D.Z. Street is what we used to call Sunday School, but what kid wants to go to school on Sunday, right? It is from 9:30 - 10:15 am, the same time as Bible Study for all other ages. It is specifically for ages Kindergarten through 5th grade. Nursery and Pre- School have their own design and curriculum.

Activities

Palm Sunday Parade, Easter Egg Hunt, Trunks of Fun, Parents Night Out, Vacation Bible School.
