mlkidz is only offered at our 6:45pm worship gathering on wednesday nights.

purpose:
gather the people together, men and women and little ones, and the
stranger who is within your gates, that they may hear and that they
may learn to fear the Lord your God and carefully observe all the
words of this law, and that their children, who have not known it,
may hear and learn to fear the Lord your God as long as
you live in the land.
deuteronomy 31:12-13

we believe that children have an imperative need and a
desire to know God and that children can begin to learn
about God’s grace from a very early age. (mark 10:13-16).
our desire is for children to become so familiar
with the word that they whole-heartedly understand and
believe that Christ alone is the one who saves and fulfills
their hearts desire. we believe that a love of God and desire
to know Him starts at home with the parents leading their
children to a better understanding of the love of Christ.
mlkidz is not a babysitting service, but rather, a
safe place where children can learn with their peers about
God’s greatness and his work through his son. our prayer is
that a child’s experience in mlkidz would aide in their growth
and in turn create a deep-rooted faith throughout
adolescence and adulthood so they would go on to lead a
fruit bearing life.
(matthew 8:16-20)

what we do:
because we truly believe that children are capable of
praising and learning about Christ (psalm 148:12) the church
body worships and praises God as a family unit.
while the parents are in their teaching time, the children will
be actively participating in their own separate teaching time.
children are placed with their peers based on
age and their abilities to participate.

by partnering with parents in communicating the greatness
of God, we pray that your child would come to have a relationship
with Christ. we believe it is the parent who is ultimately
responsible for their child’s spiritual maturity (proverbs 22:16).
we only have enough time to scratch the surface during these
practical biblical teachings. throughout the week, we encourage
each parent to build on their weekly teachings.
