Kids

Our Kids Ministry believes that God is Love – All the Time, and Sunday mornings are just the beginning! We offer digital content, service opportunities, music, drama, and camps throughout the year to help make faith-building integral to your family life.

Our Kids Ministry program on Sunday mornings takes a story-based approach to introducing the essential concepts of spirituality to 2 year olds through 5th graders, allowing them the opportunity to build relationships with Jesus and God, while finding support among personal relationships with each other. We’ve designed our kids environments with your child in mind – safe, fun, and filled with age-appropriate and neurodiverse learning tools.

We believe that every child is valuable to God and our church. If your child could use an older buddy during Sunday School, or you have any questions about our program, contact: Kristin@pvumc.org.

Children of any age are always welcome to experience worship with their families, and Praise Packs are available for kids 3 and older.

PVUMC Kids are faithful, valuable, compassionate, and giving.
Our Values

How We Do This

In our Kids Ministry, children will learn about God and Jesus through common biblical stories, song and play. As we talk through stories, children will learn the narrative and engage with the characters and story lines. This helps them to understand basic concepts important to a firm faith foundation.

 

Childcare (6 weeks – 2 years) and Sunday School (2 years – 5th grade) happens on Sunday Morning at 9:00 AM. Kids begin worship with their families, and are dismissed after the Children’s Moment.

Youth

6th - 12th Grade

PV Youth

Our Youth Ministry supports kids 6th grade through high school as they transition to understanding how to apply faith to daily life. Together, we navigate current topics such as peer pressure, school life, local and global social issues and more.

Midweek

PVUMC has dozens of middle-of-the-week groups and teams that together allow our church to be more than just something we all do on Sundays.

 

MIDWEEK is about bringing many of these groups together on Wednesday nights! Midweek will feel like a small town and will have something for every member of your family – including youth and kids!

To affirm the love of God and Jesus as revealed through the Bible, the church and the community.
Our Mission

How We Do This

Our Youth Ministry seeks to help kids 6th grade through High School grow in their faith. We offer various ways for youth to interact through events, Sunday classes, and more. Our goal is to cultivate an active youth group where kids and families feel safe and have fun while they learn about God.
