KidzLife
Birth - 5th Grade
Where every child is loved, seen and heard.
We're cultivating an environment for ALL children to learn about the beautiful love story of the Bible and the God who made them!
Your First Visit
We can't wait to meet you!
We have directional signs throughout the children’s area and main lobby to take you to each ministry.
We are here to help and make sure your kids are well-taken care of and to show them how much Jesus adores them! At our welcome desk we will help you and your family get checked in. During the process you will receive stickers that will keep you and your children connected. Your child will wear one, and you will be given a matching number for pick-up purposes. Safety is important to us! If we need you during service, we will use the phone number you provide to us to send you a text.
On Sunday mornings, each of our children’s ministries has a live, interactive large group where your child will learn about the Bible, grow in their relationship with God and join a fun and engaging small group. Our goal is for your child to leave feeling loved and have a deeper understanding of the Lord! On Wednesday nights, join us for Kidz Project – a discipleship program that focuses on spiritual disciplines from the Bible.

What We Value
Safety
Your kids are important to us! We want them to feel safe here and for you to feel safe as well. To ensure this, all of our adult team members have extensive background checks and are fully trained to keep your kids safe. We want you to enjoy services knowing your child is loved, safe and in a clean, loving environment!
Fun
Our leaders can’t wait until Sunday mornings! Their hearts are for each child to have fun and know Jesus. Learning about God is fun! Your kids will be begging to come back because this ministry was created with your child in mind!
Creative teaching
The Gospel Project is a powerful curriculum that we use to teach kids that the Bible is more than a story—it’s good news! The Gospel Project is a weekly Bible study that helps kids dive deep into the big story of the Bible—God’s plan to rescue His people through His son, Jesus Christ.
Age-specific lessons
Age-appropriate lessons are a big deal to us! We want your child to learn in a way that they understand. Our heart is to help children grow in their individual relationship with Jesus!
Consistent small group leaders
We want our kids to know our leaders! We make it our top priority to keep our team consistent as they build relationships with each child in their small groups. Friendships matter!
Partnering with parents
YOU matter to us! Our goal is to be a part of each phase of your child’s life! No matter the season, we want to walk this journey with you and partner with your family!
Special Needs Ministry
KidzLife Friends
If you have a child with special needs, our Kidzlife Friends leaders would love to help! We offer a buddy system that provides a one-on-one relationship for your child. We also have a sensory room and special needs class with our amazing leaders! Please let us know. We want nothing more than to come alongside your family and welcome every child into our children’s ministry by giving them a place to belong! This ministry is offered on both Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights.

Meet the KidzLife Team
Pastor Bella Edwards
Children's Pastor
Hi! I’m Pastor Bella! I love my husband, our two sons and our two dogs. I oversee all things in the kid’s ministry and all our amazing teams! I enjoy equipping our leaders to create wonderful environments for your kids to grow to know Jesus and live out God's Word! My passion for the younger generation is God-breathed, and it fills my heart with such joy to see children develop a relationship with Christ! Our life verse in KidzLife comes from Matthew 19:14. It is truly my heart’s desire for every child to grasp how much Jesus loves, sees and hears them!
Joyce Michael
