What’s Kids Club?
It’s a bunch of fun, that’s what it is! Kids are learning about the life and ministry of Jesus from Gospel Project and will have a great time playing games, engaging in Bible activities, eating yummy snacks, and making friends in their crews.

Winter/Spring ’23 Service Project
Kids Club is “pet themed” this year so we are raising money for Mercer County’s Fur-ever Friends who help homeless animals in our community. Kids Clubbers are encouraged to raise $350 by March 22nd to earn an extra 10 points at the prize shop. *Pre-k Crews will earn an extra surprise in their prize bag. Bring your money donations each week and place in the BIG dog treat box on the stage. Checks may be payable to FBC with “Fur-Ever Friends” in the memo. Thanks for your help!

Bonus Points: Take-Home Pages
Kids Clubbers will take a journal page home each week based on what they learned that night at Kids Club. These pages can be returned to their crew leaders the following week to earn 2 extra points to spend at the Prize Shop on the last night. Families (or a parent) are encouraged to read the Bible Story summary with their child and discuss/answer the questions together. *Parents, please sign-off on the page before your kiddo returns it (initials on top are fine).
*Crews 1-4 have the “younger kids activity page” and crews 5-8 have the “older kids activity page.”
**There are six pages total so K-5th grade kiddos can earn up to 12 extra points for the prize shop by returning all six. Pre-k kiddos will earn extra candy prizes in their goody bags.
