Whether you’re new here or have been around for a while let me welcome you to the children’s ministry of Fox Creek Christian Church! Though the term “Children’s Ministry” is relatively new in the church’s vocabulary, the concept is not. Jesus made it very clear just how important children were to Him and to the Kingdom of God (Matthew 19:14). Because Jesus, himself, placed so much value on children, we feel they are pretty important too.
George Barna, one of the world’s leading statisticians said in his book, Transforming Children into Spiritual Champions-Why Children Should Be Your Church’s #1 Priority, “Moral foundations of children are generally determined by the time the individual reaches age nine. Our research confirms a parallel outcome in the spiritual dimension: By age nine, most children have their spiritual moorings in place.” More than ½ of those who will accept Christ do so by the age of 12.
With these things in mind, it is vital for us as individual families and as a church to work together to provide our children with the best foundation upon which to build their lives. This is one investment that is definitely worth the returns!

What can my child expect during a typical Kids Creek service?
Though you can always expect the unexpected at Kids Creek, there are a few elements that you will see each time you visit. We want Kids Creek to be the best part of your child's week. We strive to make that happen by personally connecting with your child - but more importantly helping your child connect with their Creator and the King of the Universe. If we can do those two things, then we consider our time together a success!
Worship
Each time we come together, we respond to God's amazing love through a time of worship. Through a variety of high-energy, Christ-centered music with motions and softer, more reflective times of praise, we strive to create an atmosphere in which your child can experience God on corporate and personal levels. Every Sunday morning, we also offer communion to immersed followers of Christ as an act of worship and remembrance.
Bible Instruction
At Kids Creek, we know that the Bible is anything but boring! We attempt to bring God's Word to life for kids using drama, multimedia elements, games, hands-on experiences, and in-depth examination of the most life-changing Book ever written. The message is presented in a kid-friendly way in an effort to cultivate life-long followers of Christ.
Small Groups
In a large-group setting, it can be difficult to personally connect with each child and to provide the individualized attention they need. That is why at Kids Creek, we follow-up each whole-group lesson with time in small groups. Not only does it allow children to develop friendships with their peers and small group leaders, but also provides a time to reinforce the main ideas from the lesson in smaller, age-leveled groups. This is where kids learn to practically apply what they are being taught.
