Children

Nothing is more worthwhile than the investment we make in our children's spiritual lives.

Life in Christ for the Next Generation 
is our vision and mission in AdventureLand for birth through 5th grade,
and that is accomplished as we invest in, love on, pour into and pray for children each week.  

Join us:  Raspberry at 9:30am | 11:30am | 6:00pm (AWANA)

Children's    Weekly    Programming

AdventureLand (birth - 5th Grade)

(All Campuses)
During our Sunday morning services, we offer AdventureLand for children from birth through 5th grade. AdventureLand teaches the truths of Scripture in a way that helps preschoolers and kids understand their true identity in Christ. We utilize high-quality media, games, and side-by-side learning to foster a fun atmosphere of learning and belonging.

AdventureLand uses a hiking metaphor to teach kids what it means to follow Jesus. In the Elementary classes kids can use a H.I.K.E.R. Guide, to help them learn a value-driven framework for spiritual formation.

Elementary Kids earn Mountain Bucks and all our kids receive loads of encouragement from their leaders, and make lots of new friends. Your children will gain confidence to spend time with God, navigate His word, and partner with others on their very own spiritual adventure.

If you have any questions about AdventureLand please contact Heidi Hale. 

AWANA (birth - 8th Grade)

(Raspberry Campus Only, Sept-May)
We offer AWANA during the school year  for children from birth-8th grade during our Sunday evening classes (6:00pm at CP Raspberry).  AWANA offers a fun, proven approach for early evangelism and deep discipleship.

If you have any questions about AWANA please contact Commander Putt.

KidsClub is a support ministry for adult training opportunities & events throughout the week. KidsClub provides a safe, fun learning environment for your children from birth through 12-years-old while you’re growing deeper in your faith.

NEW TO  CHANGEPOINT

We can't wait to meet your family! Here's some info that can help you on your first Sunday!
KID TIP: You HAVE to go down the slide!  Stay after service and let the kids go down the 2 story tall slide, or play on the boat! It's hard to explain--come and check it out (and parents can go down the slide too)!
