Procession of the Palms and Children's Easter Celebration
Each year the children celebrate Easter with our Palm Sunday Procession of the Palms and an Easter Celebration on the Saturday morning before Easter.  Children enjoy crafts, games, cookie decorating, and a GIANT Easter Egg Hunt at the end of the event!  


Worship Arts Music Camp 
Held the first full week of June, this is a week-long daytime (morning) camp where children focus on Worship, Arts & Music - elements that play a large part of each Sunday morning worship service.  Click here if you would like more information about this year's camp.

Vacation Bible Camp 
Held every third week in July--children attend Sunday through Thursday evenings from 6:15-8:30 PM. Campers enjoy ice cream on Sunday evening and a light meal each evening thereafter. Click here for more information about this year's Vacation Bible Camp!

Blessing of the Backpacks 
Children are encouraged to bring their backpacks the Sunday prior to the beginning of each new school year. On this same Sunday, backpacks full of supplies are collected to be donated to local schools.


Third-Grade Bible Presentation 
Each year we are honored to present a new Bible to each of our third graders!

​Harvest Celebration & Trunk or Treat 
A wonderful family event with evening festivities inside the church, followed by Trunk or Treat in the church parking lot.

Advent Festival 
Children and their families are invited to prepare for the birth of Jesus. Christmas crafts and games, cookie decorating and storytelling at the manger. Children are also invited to shop for their family at The Christmas Store where they can select their gift and have it wrapped to take home.


Birthday Party for Jesus 
Children meet during the Sunday School hour the week before Christmas and throw a birthday party for Baby Jesus! The children bring in unwrapped baby items (diapers, sleepers, clothes and blankets) and play games, then the baby items are donated between Topeka Rescue Mission and Fellowship & Faith.
