SERVE:

Kids ages 0 - 5th grade!

Each week the kids imitate our core rhythms of gathering and scattering! They gather in a large group to worship together, and scatter into smaller groups to discuss the big story of Scripture: God’s plan to rescue His people through Jesus!

Sundays, at each each gathering: 8:45am & 10:30am

We believe that even the youngest child can, and should, hear the Gospel at every opportunity and be given a chance to respond in a developmentally appropriate way!

Serving on Sundays isn’t just filling a role, it’s helping shape a child’s faith for a lifetime! Our Serving Team creates a safe, fun, and meaningful space where kids can hear the gospel and begin to follow Jesus. Serving with Citylight Kids is a great way to see lives transformed!

I'M INTERESTED IN SERVING!

Curriculum:

We partner with The Gospel Project to provide Christ-centered, Bible-based lessons that help kids see the big story of Scripture: God’s plan to rescue His people through Jesus.
