We believe children are an important part of the church. We

love to see them involved in every aspect of church life!

  Kernersville's children's ministry programs are aimed at nurturing children and youth

and helping them to develop a loving and serving relationship with Jesus Christ.  

​

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.—Proverbs 22:6

Children's Sabbath School Classes

 

Children at the Kernersville Seventh-day Adventist Church are not simply placed in childcare or left to color pictures while the adults are having their Bible study. Specific Bible study curriculums have been designed for each age group covering the great stories of the Bible, the importance of a personal relationship with Jesus, as well as the teachings of Jesus. 

 

Cradle Roll (ages 0-3) | Kindergarten (ages 4-6) | Primary (ages 7-9) Junior (ages 10-13) | Teen (ages 14-18)

 

Children’s Story

​

After the morning Sabbath school classes, every member comes together in the main sanctuary for our worship service. During the service, the kids are included by inviting them upfront to hear a short story and help gather the Lamb’s offering. The Children's Story will be announced from up front, and children who would like to participate can pick up baskets for the Lamb's offering from the back center aisle of the sanctuary where they are being handed out.

Adventurer Club is a Christ-centered ministry designed to support parents in assisting children (ages 6-9) with the challenging task of developing fully as followers of Christ in today’s world.
 

What is the Adventurer Curriculum designed to accomplish?

  1. Children will, at their own level, commit their hearts and lives to Jesus Christ.
