But Jesus said, "Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."  Matthew 20:14

  Children's Ministry

In the Children's Ministry at East Evangelical Free Church,

"Our Passion is to partner with families to plant the seeds of the Gospel in children, to help them grow as disciples so that they bear fruit for the Lord Jesus."

 
  
 Sunday

Sunday Studies

We have Sunday Studies for all ages. This fall we started FaithWeaver. FaithWeaver weaves together a family’s journey in faith by teaching the same Bible truth to each family member, nursery-age through adults. This way, families can apply Bible truths together in their daily lives, both individually and as a family. We are finding this to be a GREAT fit with our Children’s Ministry Mission statement: “Our passion is to partner with families to plant the seeds of the Gospel in children, to help them grow as disciples so that they bear fruit for the Lord Jesus.”

Children's Church

Each Sunday morning we offer Children's Church for kids ages 3 through 1st grade during the worship service. The children stay with their parents until dismissed from the morning service, then proceed to room 106 where they sing, play games, listen to stories and do crafts which introduce them to the truths of God's word and His love for them. Children's Church meets in Room 106 where parents can pick their children up after the adult worship service.

  Summer Events

Vacation Bible School (VBS)

Vacation Bible School at East EFC is an exciting week where the church is tranformed into a themed setting where the Bible comes alive for the children. This year our theme was "Egypt: Joseph's Journey from Prison to Palace."  

Kids Great Getaway

The Kid's Great Getaway is our summer camp for kids going into 4th, 5th and 6th grades.  This annual camp is sponsored by the Kansas Evangelical Free Churches.  Held late in July at Camp Quaker Haven near Arkansas City, KS, activities include singing, swimming, crafts, games, Bible time and lot of other fun. 

 
"In Service to the King" is the theme for the Kids Great Getaway for 2012.  Check out the website at kidsgreatgetaway.org to see camp pictures for 2011.

 

Other Children's Ministry activities include The Fishing Club in the summer.
