Kids ministry

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."

Matthew 19:14

On Sunday mornings there are opportunities for all kids to learn about Jesus!  There is Hopeland for the little ones, Xtreme Kidz for the middle ages, and we even offer our Green Room for the kids who have to be here for a 2nd Gathering because their parents are serving.  We think our worship gathering is "cool enough" for the teens on Sundays, and then we have Community Youth Group on Wednesdays.  Check out each area below! 

Meet the team!

Hopeland
Hopeland is a fun place for your babies and toddlers to experience love, learn at their own level, and give mom and dad an opportunity to focus on their time with God, knowing that their precious little ones are in good hands!

Hopeland is available for both the 9am Gathering and the 11am Gathering on Sunday mornings.  No matter which Gathering you choose, there will be a fun and educational opportunity for your little ones!

Xtreme Kidz
Our team members take great care in providing lessons about the Bible that are easy to understand and apply for young minds. In addition to the message, kids have a chance to sing and dance along with worship songs and apply their learning through a craft or activity. You can be assured that your child will have lots of fun learning about Jesus and making new friends so that you can relax and gain the most out of the Worship Gathering.

Xtreme Kidz is available for both the 9am and the 11am Gatherings on Sunday mornings. Choose a Gathering that works best for you, and know that there will be a safe and educational opportunity for your children as well.

Community Youth Group
Teenagers need others to share life with! New Hope collaborates with other area churches to provide the Community Youth Group. CYG is for students in grade 6-12 and meets every Wednesday evening during the school year. Our leaders enjoy mentoring teens, helping them to become all that God has created them to be!

Feel free to bring your students with you to the Sunday Gatherings as well!  With the rockin' music, multimedia, and engaging messages, they will get as much out of it as you do!

Green Room
Some of our volunteers need/want to be here for both Worship Gatherings, however, this is difficult for parents of young kids.  Most kids aren't excited about participating in two identical kids ministry experiences.  The Green Room exists solely for these children!

Parents who are serving during one Gathering and worshiping in the other can take their kids to their appropriate kids space for the 1st Gathering, and then to the Green Room for the 2nd.  With proper supervision, these kids will have the opportunity to watch a movie, play with other children, and enjoy a snack.
