At Pendleton First we want all our children to feel that they have a a place of their own where they can learn about God. A place to belong just like the adults. Our purpose for Children's Ministry is to guide children as they grow in their own faith in Jesus Christ. Our goal is for children to know the Love of God, share it with others and live it out all the days of their life. We want our kids to not just know about
God but know who  He is on a personal level.  
Information on Early Childhood

Kindergarten to 5th Grade

Life Hour
If kids want an opportunity to dive deeper into God with the stories we hear during our Kids Place service,
they can join us for our Kid's Place Life Hour at 9am on Sundays.
Sunday Morning
We have multiple areas where kids can get involved. During our adult service at 10:30am we offer our own Kid's Place service for K-5th graders where they can worship God through music, play games, and most importantly learn about God through fun, interactive lessons.
Sunday Evening Celebration Place
Has your child been dealing with any hurts, habits, or hang ups in their life? Kids learn about how to work through problems they may have in life like anger and denial. They also learn how to have peace, have honesty, admit wrongs, and much more. Join us Sunday evenings @ 6pm for Celebration Place for K to 5th Grade.

Royal Rangers & Girls Ministries
Join us Wednesday nights for Royal Rangers & Girls Ministries. Both programs are a great time of discipleship using a model of badge and merit earning to teach kids about the world around them, life skills, and Biblical truths! Rainbows boys & girls 3 to 5 years old. Girls Ministries K to 5th grade girls. Royal Rangers K to 5th grade boys.
