PBC Children's Ministry News
August/September 2017 Edition
Summer's almost over?
Summer always goes by so fast! It's hard to believe that we're gearing up for Fall and Back to School time for our PBC kids. There are several different events coming up in the next several months. Be sure to check your e-mail and our PBC Facebook page for the most updated information!
Family Fun Day 2017!
Mark your calendars for Sunday August 27th! It's time for Family Fun Day. What's Family Fun Day? Mostly, it's splashing around with some great water activities. Join us for the church service, eat some great food at our Fellowship meal, and join us for water games outside! We'll have slip and slide kickball, kiddie pools, water balloons, a giant water slide, and more. Don't like to get wet? No problem! We'll have tug of war, cornhole, bocce, horseshoes, and more. Just be sure to bring a change of clothes or a swimsuit, a towel, and a chair. Invite your friends and family!
Christmas Play
Yes, we're serious. It's August, and we're already talking about our Christmas program. Let the countdown to Christmas begin! This year's Christmas program preparation will be kicking off in September. All Children's Church children are invited to participate in this exciting Star Wars-themed Christmas play. Scripts, music, rehearsal schedule, and parts will be handed out in the month of September. Be on the lookout for more information and details about this exciting event. May the force be with you!
PBC Fall Fest
Keep your eye out for more information on our annual Fall Fest event in the month of October! There will be pumpkin painting, a moon bounce, hayrides, and much more! It's a family event, and lots of fun. Stay tuned to our PBC Facebook page, e-mail, and bulletins for more information.
Culpeper Rocks Family Painting Day-September 24th
This event if for EVERYONE, not just kids or parents of kids. Everyone's invited to paint a rock to hide around Culpeper! We'll supply the rocks and paint. Let's see how many encouraging rocks we can hide in our community. You never know how something so small as a rock can lead someone to Christ! Join us immediately following the church service for painting fun!
Policies
We are so blessed to have so many little ones at our church, and we are growing! Just a reminder, children must have already turned 4 years old, and have had their 4th birthday to attend Children's Church. Children 3 and under should still be attending nursery. Please talk with us if you have any concerns. We are happy to help.
What's happening in Children's Church each week?
Students in Pre-K (age 4) through 5th Grade are invited to join us each week in Children's Church for Kids' Worship time, bible lesson, activity time, and prayer as we learn about the Lord and his love for us. Each week, students collect points towards a prize store each quarter. Here's how the points work:
How do the children earn points?
1 point for attendance at our 9:00am Sunday School lesson.
1 point for attendance at our 10:15am Children's Church service.
1 point for bringing their bible with them.
2 points for memorizing their bible verse from last week (located on the Family Connect
paper, and sent out to parents via church e-mail each week)
2 points for returning their completed Family Connect worksheet.
We keep track of the points, and reward the kids with a prize store each quarter (beginning in the 2017-18 school year).
