Praise the Lord! Our families are growing!
As a natural response to our church—and families—growing, our Commission Kids classes are being restructured to serve our children in the best way we can. Here are the following updates to our Commission Kids class structure:
1. We adding a third class on Sunday mornings for our children.
We will now be offering a nursery room and dedicated preschool room. Nursery is for 0-2 years old. Our New Preschool classroom will be for 3-5 year olds.
We have been blessed to have new volunteers step up to serve our children. Praise God we are able to bless and love our children.
2. We will be changing the ages of our grade school class to Kindergarten to 5th Grade (formerly K-6th).
Starting on Graduation Sunday on June 2, 2024 we will begin a new transition for all current 5th and 6th graders. Over the summer, we will begin encouraging all current 5th graders (those going into 6th grade in the fall of 2024) to begin attending our Sunday Worship with their families on Sunday morning AND attending Youth with the other middle and high school students.
As we have looked to best serve and mobilize our young people, we have noticed several areas of need in our approach with students. More and more school districts include 6th grade in middle school. As a result, many of our 6th graders are dealing with topics of sex, depression, inequality, drugs, racism, sexuality, etc. on the daily.
In a time where children are being introduced to mature and serious conversations earlier in their devlepment, our pastors feel it is necessary to combat this cultural shift with equipping our young people with God-centered answers in a way that is relevant to their current stage of life. Sadly, this means we have conversations earlier.
Thus, we must be vigilant and proactive to shepherd our children well.
Below is a video that provides more detail on theses changes.
Also, you can email Ps. Abram directly with specific questions!
Blessings,
Abram
Each week at Commission Church, our children are given an opportunity to experience and encounter God. We have lessons taught from the Bible relevent and accessible for kids.
We also strive to create an envirnment where kids can build healthy christian freindships and connect with other kids through games, prayer, worship, and activities.
We have two main classes—preschool (under 5 years-old) and our main class (5-12 years-old).
Here's what to expect when attending Commission Kids for the first time:
Inside our lobby there is a check-in station to your left.
Upon checking in for the first time, we will ask for the following information* for your child's safety:
–Parent/guardian name(s)
–Child's name
–Child's birthdate
–Phone number
–Any special instructions (allergies, special needs, etc.)
*We value your privacy and will not share this information with anyone outside our ministry.
One of our core goals is to be a muli-generational chruch. From the beginning, we have had an emphasis on multi-generational worship.
At the end of every month, on the last Sunday, we have Family Service. It is important to us to show our children what it is like to worship and be part of the Kingdom of God, even at a young age. We will have some activities for each child.
