Welcome to Village Kids

Village Kids exists to partner with parents to disciple kids, forming a community that is inclusive of all and where the gospel is taught and lived daily in every home.

New to Village Kids?

On Sundays at Village Kids, your child will encounter engaging, age-appropriate teaching, music, and activities designed to help them develop a strong relationship with Jesus. We offer programs for Newborns to Grade 5 at every Village Site.

Security is important to us. We provide security for your children and allow parents to enjoy a service knowing their child is safe, having a great experience, and learning about Jesus. To check your child in at Village Kids, visit us in the Village Kid’s wing at any of our sites and ask one of our many volunteers for help. And in case you’re wondering, here’s a breakdown of what our check-in system looks like.

Parents sign in their children before the service at a computerized stand located at the Village Kids Registration and will receive a number and a name tag for their child.
Parents are then given a copy of the name tag that will be returned when they pick up their child after the service.
If one of our leaders has a question or needs to contact you during the service, we will display your child’s number at the front of the auditorium.

Village Kids Online

We would like to resource you well as we partner with you to disciple your kids. Tune in to the Village Kids Podcast where we are working our way through the Bible chronologically in a short, fun storytelling format. We have over 100 episodes for you to listen to with your kids.

The Hangout Does…

“The Hangout Does…” is our monthly gathering for all kids who are in Grades 4-5 to connect with one another and their Village Kids leaders outside of a Sunday setting. We meet once a month to do some fun activities together! For more information, or if you have any questions, reach out to Natalie McLean.

The LIT Program

The Leaders in Training (LIT) Program provides an opportunity for kids in Grades 3-5 who regularly attend Village Church to learn and practice valuable leadership skills while serving in Village Kids. Each LIT will be partnered with one of our Village Kids volunteers who will provide intentional support, feedback, and encouragement as the LITs serve alongside them in the classroom. Participation in the LIT program should not replace attendance in Village Kids classes. This means LITs need to be able to commit to regularly serving and attending their VK class. Additionally, we will be hosting four LIT Nights throughout the year. The purpose of these fun nights is to build community with other LITs and learn new leadership skills. The LIT Nights are mandatory and are an essential component of being an LIT.

Applications for the 2024/2025 program can be picked up and returned to the New Family Check-in Desk from August 4 to September 8. There is limited space, and filling out an application does not automatically mean you can participate in the LIT program this year. If you would like more information, please contact our Program and Development Associate, Megan Yusep.
