FIRST Kids

Birth - 5th Grade

Guiding Children to a Lifelong Journey of Faith

FIRST Kids exists to partner with families to see children become passionate followers of Jesus Christ, who go on to faithfully follow him throughout their entire lives wherever He leads them. FIRST Kids meets weekly on Sunday mornings during the worship service at each of our locations and on Wednesday nights at the East Longmeadow Campus.

Wednesday Evenings

East Longmeadow Campus - 6 PM

Awana Clubs is built on the 3B ministry philosophy of child discipleship: Belong, Believe, Become. Children build spiritual resilience when they feel they belong to Jesus, when they believe in the truth of the Bible and then become disciplemakers in their own right.

Awana meets weekly from September – May, beginning on Wed. September 11th.
