MINISTRIES
KIDS Ministry
Ministry Overview
The mission of KIDS Ministry at Christ Community Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19-20). KIDS Ministry begins to lay a solid biblical foundation right from birth-6th grade.
Our vision is for children to love coming to church, learning the truth of His word and that his or her life is transformed by the power of God and his grace into the image of Christ.
Our aim is for every child to know Christ through the effective teaching of His word. From that knowledge, we want children to fall deeply in love with Christ. And out of that love and obedience, a heart of service to Christ is cultivated.
While KIDS Ministry does not exist to replace the discipleship that takes place in the home, we believe the parent is by far the most powerful and influential person in a child’s life to teach them about God and His word, however, we believe when the church and home work together, children will greatly benefit in understanding the priority and impact of God’s word in their lives.
KIDS Ministry also exists to be a resource to parents in raising their children in spiritual formation and teaching a foundation of the Christian faith. We are deeply committed to children knowing God intently, loving Jesus deeply and understanding the Bible rightly so a solid biblical foundation is laid in their life upon which they will need to stand upon in their life.

Check-In Station
Upon arrival to church, stop at the KIDS Ministry Check-in Station, located in the beautiful Palm Court. There you will receive a name tag for your child and a pick up tag. The KIDS tag will be needed to check out your child from their classroom. You will also receive a map of classroom locations.
Classes are offered for all ages of children from birth- 6th grade at both the 9:00 and 10:45 am services. See map of classroom locations HERE.
Teaching Team
The teaching team is deeply committed, thoroughly trained and passionate about teaching children God’s word and how to apply it in their lives using active and interactive learning methodologies. We seek life transformation not merely information. Teachers go through an extensive application process, national background check and fingerprinting. We also adhere to a team approach which builds in accountability and safety. The CCC KIDS Ministry Team serves every week in order to provide consistency and a meaningful rapport with their students.

AWANA is a mid-week Bible learning discipleship ministry of CCC with an emphasis on care and discipleship through God’s Word. Our aim is not only Bible memorization, but even more importantly understanding of God’s Word and the application of it in the lives of the Clubbers. Helping Clubbers connect through building friendships with other Clubbers and through meaningful conversations with their leaders is a high priority. Each night includes engaging small group time, high energy games, Bible centered music and Bible teaching.
AWANA meets on Thursday nights from 5:45 – 7:45 pm, September-May, for children Pre-K through 6th grade. Children must be 3+ years prior to September 1.
AWANA is also a parent-involved ministry. In order for Clubbers to be successful in this program, a weekly commitment to go through each week’s handbook material is critical. Additionally, we ask for each parent to participate in the program as well. There are many opportunities to serve at AWANA.
