Kids of the Kingdom
-
The Kids of the Kingdom ministry provides a positive, family environment where parents and children can engage in social and educational activities surrounded around the various Church liturgical seasons. The ministry provides a social forum for parents with younger children to meet and get to know one another. It also serves as a children’s ministry in that books, crafts, and songs are all engaged in that focus on a Church Holy Day, Saint, or liturgical period of time.
At each gathering of Kids of the Kingdom your child will experience:- Reading that is fun!
- An environment similar to an early childhood classroom with the comfort and security in having a parent there.
- Creative and fun craft projects for the entire family to enjoy.
- Socialization with other children both in a structured and free play setting.
- Enjoyment outdoors when weather permits.
- Singing, music, and games in a group setting.
Each gathering follows a liturgical theme, inviting children and their caregivers to explore stories in fun, age-appropriate and active ways incorporating simple games, visual activities, songs, crafts and movement activities.
