WHAT WE'RE LEARNING.

Early Childhood (2-4 years old)

HeartShaper // March 12 // Unit 1

2s

We’re so glad to have your child in class. The next four weeks will be especially happy ones for the children as they discover that Jesus is the Son of God and they learn to praise Him!

Here’s what your child will be learning about during the next four weeks:

Jesus is the Son of God (John 6, 19–21; Luke 19; Matthew 21)

Week 1 Jesus feeds 5,000

Week 2 Jesus is a friend to Zacchaeus

Week 3 People praise Jesus

Week 4 Jesus is alive!

Bible Words: “Jesus is the Son of God” (based on

Matthew 16:16).

The people had seen Jesus perform many miracles, and Jesus’ greatest miracle was when He rose from the dead! The people praised Jesus because they knew He was special. It is our prayer that your child will begin to understand just how special Jesus is and want to praise Him too!

3s & 4s 

“Jesus is powerful.” A simple statement. A true statement. But what does it mean to a child who is 3 or 4 years old? Can Jesus knock down buildings? Yes, if He wants to. Can Jesus fight and win over enemies? Yes, if He chooses. But Jesus’ power is more than great physical strength. His power is authority over everything—in Heaven and on earth.

 

This quarter your child will hear Bible lessons that teach about Jesus’ power. Your child will learn that Jesus has power over the elements of nature, power to help and heal people, power to provide needs, and even power over death.

 

The lessons your child will learn include:

 

Jesus Is Powerful

            Week 1 • Jesus Stops a Storm (Mark 4)

            Week 2 • Jesus Heals a Young Girl (Luke 8)

            Week 3 • Jesus Feeds a Crowd (John 6)

            Week 4 • Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind (John 9)

            Week 5 • Jesus Heals 10 Men (Luke 17)

            Week 6 • Jesus Brings Lazarus Back to Life (John 11)

 

The following verse is the Bible Memory for this unit of lessons. We encourage you to review the verse at home with your child:

 

“Our Lord is great and very powerful” (Psalm 147:5, ICB).

Grade School (K-3rd grade)

GO! // March 26 // The Last Supper

Include your kids in the normal High Point Church worship service during the music portion, and then have them watch the KidsMin video after the music is done. 

Watch this week's video here and use the accompanying lesson resources in the YouTube link. You can find the YouTube playlist with our past videos here!

Grade School (4th-5th grade)

KC+

KC+ is our 4th and 5th grade KidsMin class. This year, we are studying the New City Catechism to help the kids understand 50 of the foundational truths of the Christian faith, e.g., the Trinity, God, Sin, Jesus being fully human and fully God, Redemption, Justification and lots of other difficult but important words. Alternate years, we take a thematic look at topics like the Bible, the Gospel, What Believing Looks Like, Worldviews, Prayer, Heaven, Life at High Point Church, and Worship to teach how the all the truths learned last year fit together and what they mean to our kids. 

SUNDAY MORNING.

0-12 Months

Our infant nursery is equipped with the perfect necessities for little ones from swings to mobiles and toys and cribs. Staffed entirely by background-checked volunteers and with an adult to infant ratio of 1:3, our babies enjoy the close, personal, nurturing care they require. This also enables each of our adult volunteers to build meaningful relationships with each child and his or her family.

1-2 YRS

The toddler nursery is for “confident walkers” through age two. Parents can take great comfort knowing their child is receiving exceptional loving care in our toddler nursery. Our toddler nursery is staffed entirely by background-checked volunteers and equipped with the perfect mix of fine motor & gross motor toys as well as toys encouraging parallel play, cooperative play, and plenty of board books. Our adult to toddler ratio is 1:4 which enables each of our adult volunteers to build meaningful relationships with each child and his/her family. 
 
Children "graduate" to Sunday School classes for preschoolers in September if they are age two as of September 1.

2 – Pre-K

We make Sunday morning a fun learning experience where kids are energized and fulfilled through Bible-based ministry. Our classes are designed to connect with kids through unique and relevant teaching methods including centers, music, and drama.

Ministry to each child comes to life through loving, trained, and background-checked volunteer team members who care deeply about helping each child grow in his or her faith. Our team members are committed to coming alongside your family to assist you in the spiritual formation of your child. A trained and dedicated teaching team brings Biblical truths to life each week in a hands-on multi-sensory approach to learning from God’s Word. 

Early Childhood classes are available during both Worship Services at 9 + 10:45am.

K – 5

At 9am, Kids Celebration kicks off with vibrant worship. Trained teachers use creative teaching methods to present God's Biblical truth to elementary school-aged children in a relevant and engaging way.

After the large group teaching, the children break into small groups where the main thrust of the day's lesson is discussed. Background-checked volunteers team leaders use small groups to help the children find tangible applications from God's Word to use in their everyday lives.

At 10:45am, children grades K-3 attending Kids Praise meet together in the gym and travel between three stations: Bible Boulevard (Bible Lesson), Praise Path (Movement Activity) + Creation Station (Learning Activity related to lesson).  Each station is led by background-checked and trained volunteer team members.

4th and 5th graders in the 10:45am service attend the musical portion of the adult worship environment in the balcony on the left side of the sanctuary and then exit with their volunteer leaders for an engaging Bible lesson and small group discussion.

Both Kids Celebration and Kids Praise teach the same main idea from multiple angles.  We encourage parents to come to both services; stay for the main service during one hour and attend a class or serve the other hour. Your kids will enjoy attending both services back to back! 

BUDDY PROGRAM

KidsMin is in the process of developing additional resources and programming to serve kids with special needs! We are going to be starting with a buddy program, so that trained, background-checked, loving volunteers can help kids who need additional support for participation in the Sunday School routine.

If you have a child who might benefit from a buddy for success in the classroom, or you know of a family unable to attend church due to their childcare needs, please let us know. Email Bethany Domoto at  for more information!  

First time in KidsMin?

 
Welcome! Here's what you need to know for Sunday mornings.

  • Feel free to enter through the High Point Christian School entrance (look for the KidsMin sign) or our main entrance. 
  • Our lobby Checkin staff will get your family registered and headed in the right direction for your kids’ classrooms.
  • Our volunteers and children practice regular hand washing and/or hand sanitizing throughout the morning.

During the Week.

High Point Christian School is a part of Impact Christian Schools (ICS). ICS is here to provide academic and school leadership for Christian schools with a much bigger vision than just providing quality education. ICS aims to come alongside what God would have done when his presence intersects education. The outcome? A robust educational environment where children can grow into great people, know their purpose, their identity, and know-how to participate in a community where others flourish as well.

LEARN MORE

People often talk about the "power of prayer". That phrase can be misleading. There's really no power in prayer, but there is great power in God and he responds when we reach out to Him in prayer. Because of how gracious and loving God is, prayer is our most effective strategy for the Spiritual growth of our children.  

Your kids' small group leaders would love to join you in praying for your kids. If there's ever anything you would love to see God do in your child's life, please email our Director of Kids Ministries, Gwen Schrader, at .

Gwen will pray and will also send the request to your kids' small group leaders. The prayer request will stay confidential outside of Gwen and your small group leaders as they join in prayer together.

Registration is now live for the 2022-2023 school year!

SUMMER IS COMING.

Summer camps are one of the best ways for your kids to take steps in their faith and have memorable summers.
This summer, we are pleased to be able to offer one week-long, full day camp option!

Sports Camp: July 17-21

Sports Camp! Sign up by July 17. (Please note camp is a week earlier than in the past.)

Our theme this year is Game PlanBehind every sought-after victory, behind every two-sided conflict, behind every great desire for change from the status quo lies a plan. It is a game plan to gain victory, vanquish the enemy, and change the future for the better. Our God, the Lord of the Universe, the Ultimate Coach, has a Game Plan not only for mankind in general but for each one of us personally. God is the coach, and people are His players. We will look at the life of Moses to determine how the divine “Game Plan” unfolded for him and discover what principles and concepts were used that might apply to our lives.

This is a great camp to invite friends to attend and is for boys and girls age 5 (by 9/1/23. These are generally rising kindergartners) - entering 6th grade. ⁠Enjoy these sports: Basketball, Soccer, Cheerleading, and Team 45 (for ALL 4 & 5 year olds).⁠ ⁠Please note, the minimum age hasn't changed. We are hoping it is less confusing this year!

Monday-Friday, 9am-3:30pm. Cost is $100 and includes a camp t-shirt and daily snack. (Add $25 for after-camp care until 4:30pm.)⁠ ⁠

Email Gwen, KidsMin Director, at with any questions or to volunteer.⁠ ⁠
