There is something so special about Sundays in Kids Church. Yes, we have a LOT of fun, but it’s about so much more than that.

We are intentional about creating a space where kids can seek the Lord, worship freely, dive into God’s Word, pray together, and grow deeper through small groups.

We don’t want to simply keep kids busy on Sundays. We want to disciple them, help them build a strong foundation of faith, and give them opportunities to personally encounter Jesus.

There’s nothing quite like watching the next generation worship, learn, pray, ask questions, and grow in their faith. This is why we do what we do.

This Sunday, eKids is diving into Year 3 of our Bible Engagement curriculum with a brand-new series called Jesus + Me!

Jesus makes us a clear promise: when we look for Him, we will find Him. He isn’t hiding from us, but growing closer to Him requires us to be intentional about following and pursuing Him.

Throughout this series, our kids will discover how different people pursued Jesus through challenging circumstances. They’ll learn that following Jesus isn’t just about what we know, it’s about living out our faith by showing up, listening carefully, receiving His grace, and trusting Him.

Parents, family devotions and resources will be available so you can continue the conversation at home throughout the week!

This series also connects with our adult Sunday School curriculum. We may occasionally be a week apart, but most weeks, families will be learning the same biblical truths together!

We can’t wait to begin Jesus + Me this Sunday in eKids!

Happy Back-to-School Day! As our students head into a brand-new school year, we’re praying that they walk into every classroom, hallway, and new opportunity knowing that God is with them wherever they go!

We hope your Scripture bookbag tag is a little reminder of that truth all year long.

📸 We want to see those first-day smiles! Drop a picture in the comments of your student with their backpack, Scripture tag, or first-day-of-school photo!

Praying for an amazing school year for all of our Eastern Next-Gen students! 💜

We are SO proud of one of our very own eKids! He set a goal to raise $100 for BGMC and worked hard to make it happen by selling bracelets and doing yard work!

Today, Pastor Jackie had the privilege of giving him his special Silver $100 BGMC Card, something you can only earn by personally raising $100 for missions!

We’re proud of his hard work, but even more proud of his heart to give back to the Lord and help others hear about Jesus around the world.

And he’s not stopping here…his next goal is the $1,000 BGMC Card! We can’t wait to cheer him on as he keeps giving and making a difference for God’s Kingdom!

BACK-TO-SCHOOL & FAMILY SUNDAY IS THIS SUNDAY!

During our Family Sunday service, our Next-Gen will be serving throughout the church, and we’ll take a special moment to pray over all of our students, and teachers, as they head into a brand-new school year!

✨✨Students from Pre-K through college — bring your EMPTY backpack to church! ✨✨

We want to pray a special blessing over each student for guidance, protection, wisdom, and vision for the year ahead…and that EVERYWHERE THEY CARRY THAT BACKPACK THIS YEAR, THEY WOULD REMEMBER THAT GOD IS WITH THEM!!
