Welcome Parents!
The average child will spend over 1000 hours every year in school and they will spend less than 50 hours in church. The average parent has more than 10 times the opportunities to discuss spiritual issues in one year than a church leader does in 10 years.
The church has limited potential to impact the heart of your child. WHAT HAPPENS AT HOME in many ways is more important than what happens at church!
KidStuff Large Group
That's why we want to make sure that you don't let your kids miss KidStuff. It's a fast, noisy, zany, multimedia, kid-focused, parent-centered, virtue-driven, 35-minute extravaganza.
KidStuff Parent Page is the best way for parents to catch up on what we're talking about on Sunday's so they can keep talking about it all month long.
We have a team of volunteers and staff every week creating ideas, crafting environments and leading kids to help them grow up the right way. BUT WE CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU!
We need you to help us help your kids by doing 3 things.
1. Bring your kids to KidStuff.
Be sure to help them attend a consistent hour, with the same group of friends and the same leader every week.
2. Make KidStuff a priority.
Don't miss this window of opportunity in your child's life to do something with them. Remember, KidStuff and KidzQuest work together to help you impact your child's spiritual life.
3. Talk about it every week at home.
Remember, no one can have more influence on your child's faith than you can as a parent.
