Welcome to FPC’s Children’s Ministry!

Our mission is to help kids know, grow, and show the love of Jesus so the city’s heart expands so it too can know, grow, and show the Love of Jesus to the people of Klamath Falls.

Know the Father: “See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!” 1 John 3:1

Trust the Spirit: Those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.” Romans 8:5b

Imitate the Son: “And the child grew and became strong; He was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him. “Luke 2:40

Sunday School

Join us for Sunday School during the worship service at 10:00 a.m. We welcome children from 5 through age 11. Children will be guided on when to leave the worship service for their classes and accompanied by their teachers. Our Sunday School program offers fun and engaging classes with biblically-based lessons, crafts, and lots of love and laughter.

Nursery

For parents with young children, we offer a nursery service where you can drop off your kids before the worship service. Our nursery welcomes newborns through age 4, allowing parents to worship freely without any worries.

Jesus grew and became strong just like our children at FPC will. As they grow, we aim to encourage their faith to grow deeper and reach wider. We live as his disciples (followers) and teach our children to be his disciples (followers).

Here at FPC, we aim to provide quality programs where kids from birth to age 18 will be educated about God, encouraged in their Christian growth, and engaged in fellowship and service with the church. In order to achieve these goals, we need to create programs that meet kids where they are in their growth and development. We want our children and youth to learn to love God well, love themselves well, and love others well by discovering, experiencing, and showing the goodness and love of God.

Become a Heart of the City kid as we learn, laugh, love, and live out God’s Word.

Children are not distractions from more important work. They are the most important work.
C.S. Lewis

In order to ensure a healthy and safe environment for all children, we follow the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

We ask that our kids are not in the classroom or nursery/toddler room if he or she displays any of the symptoms listed below.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11

Correction Policy For Kids

Positive Reinforcement will be used when behavior issues occur. If there are reoccurring difficulties, they will be discussed with the parent/guardian.

When a child misbehaves:

First give the child a loving, but firm warning.

If misbehavior continues, maybe the child needs a break. We have an overseer on Sunday mornings who can give short breaks.

Reoccurring difficulties will be discussed with the parent/guardian and Children's Ministry staff member. A child can be removed at this point to spend time outside of the classroom.

In any case of misbehavior, it is important that children know that we love them because they are God’s children. Our love and support are unconditional at FPC!
