A special shoutout to our incredible 4th and 5th grade interns who have been faithfully serving over the past several months!

These students have been running cameras, working the sound board, advancing slides, assisting in ClayZone, helping in the Nursery, and serving wherever needed. While they may think they're just helping behind the scenes, they're doing so much more.

Every week, little eyes are watching. Younger children see these interns serving with joy and faithfulness, and they can't wait until it's their turn. That's exactly why we created this program: to equip the next generation to serve the Kingdom of God.

Thank you, interns, for showing up, learning, leading, and setting an example. Your impact reaches far beyond the tasks you complete. You are inspiring those coming behind you, and you are making a difference.
We are so proud of you! ❤️

Yesterday in ArKidz, we learned about the Lost Sheep.
Just like the shepherd who left the ninety-nine to search for the one lost sheep, Jesus came looking for us. He didn't give up on us. He didn't forget about us. He loved us enough to make a way for us to come home.

The most amazing part? Jesus said that all of heaven rejoices when even one person turns to God. Heaven celebrates because every person matters to Him.

Today, let's worship with grateful hearts knowing that we are the sheep He came after. We don't have to earn His love. We don't have to work for His acceptance. Jesus already paid the price so we could belong to Him.

What a Savior. What a Shepherd. What a King.

What an incredible week we've had at Pirates! Family Bible School! As we wrap up this exciting adventure, we invite you to join us this Sunday as we gather to worship the One True King.

Let's come together with hearts full of gratitude, voices lifted in praise, and faith ready to receive all that God has for us. After an amazing week of learning, growing, and encountering His presence, we believe God is still moving and doing great things!

Hey everyone! It’s come to our attention that the QR link for the Pirates Family Bible School playlist on Spotify is not working. We apologize for this and are working to fix the situation! As soon as we get the issue fixed your little swashbucklers can play Pirates with the same tunes as the Folly Dodger crew!

Pirates Family Bible School wrapped up last night, as the crew of the Folly Dodger refused to let thick fog, deter their journey towards Treasure Island!

Captain Cross encouraged everyone to press on towards the treasure, even when the fog is so thick around you that you can’t see

Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us to “ trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. And all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your path.”

Even when we can’t see what God is up to, or even his plan , we can still trust Him, knowing that His plan and path, will lead us to the best possible outcome!

Last night we learned that we need to “Be Careful of Who is on Your Crew”!

Proverbs 13:20 says “Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm."

When we allow foolish people and their advice to influence us, it will lead to folly! But when we surround our self with shipmates who offer sound Godly wisdom, all will be well!

Remember our Bible story about Rehoboam! He listened to the wrong advice from the wrong people, and his kingdom was divided!

Surround yourself with people who push you to be closer to Jesus, and follow the wise advice the He sends your way!
