Children have many opportunities at Calvary to connect
with others their age. The children's department
includes grades 1 through 5. Our Children's ministries, called ALL STAR KIDS, under the direction of Ricky and Lindsay Lewis, provides an environment for an enjoyable church experience.
Sunday School is an excellent place to begin
connecting. Classes are provided for each grade. Lifeway
materials are used to provide Bible Study and Bible activities
designed to give age appropriate indoctrination in our Christian beliefs about God, salvation, and Christian living.
Children's worship is available during the 11:00
Worship Service for children in grades 1 through 3. We believe
children in grades 4 through 5 are old enough to participate in
the main worship service. Children's worship is designed to
provide a worship experience on the child's level to insure that
the hour is a positive learning hour for them.
AWANA clubs meet from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. every
Wednesday evening. Cubbies is for 3 and 4 year olds. Sparks is
the club for children in kindergarten through 2nd grade. The
third through sixth grade girls and boys club is named Truth and
Training. Each club uses Bible-centered handbooks and special
activities to help children gain a solid understanding of the
basics ofChristianity.
Periodic Activities scheduled throughout the year
provide opportunities for fun and times for children to learn
more about each other.
Children's Camp is a wonderful week, Monday through
Thursday, for children
grades 3 through 6. Shocco Springs Baptist Assembly provides
great outdoor fun as well as amazing kid's worship and Bible
study. Camp fees are usually around $200. Some years a Music
Camp is offered in lieu of camp at Shocco. (See the church calendar and News for times and dates.)
Music Camp is offered some years in place of
Children's Camp. This is usually held on our campus, Monday
through Friday, 9 am to 12 am, and includes recreation, crafts,
drama, choreography and music. The week concludes with a music
performance for parents on Friday night.
Vacation Bible School is always a special week at
Calvary.
A whole lot of preparation is spent decorating the church for
the school theme and getting ready for all of the
activities which take place during this three hours per day,
Monday through Friday. Though it is sometimes difficult to find
enough workers for a daytime school, we find that the morning
hours are the best for children and families. (See the church calendar and News for
times and dates.)
