We strive to offer fun, impactful, and engaging environments where children of all ages can gather to experience God and connect with one another. All of the First Kids Ministry events and programming directly relate to our vision of living our faith, nurturing families, and serving our communities. We would love to invite you to join us at Anderson First Kids!

First Kids on Sunday Mornings
What To Expect
We offer worship and kids programming at 10:00 every Sunday morning. Children participate in age-appropriate discussions, games, and crafts every week. Classes are offered for all children under the age of 3 for the entire duration of the worship service. Children ages 3-5th Grade begin their Sunday morning worship experience at 10:00 a.m. in the sanctuary with their families.
