Do we play outside sometimes?

What an awesome question!!! The truth is, while we won’t necessarily “play” outside, we will sometimes do our Large Group Teach and Small Group Breakouts outside when the weather is nice. Some of the activities involved in the Small Group Breakouts may involve physical activity or games. But, for the most part, we are here to teach you more about God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ) and God the Holy Spirit.

As you continue on into the Junior High and High School Ministries, they don’t have a play time either. We don’t get a lot of time with you; it’s just about an hour and twenty minutes. So, in that time, we spend our time with worship, teaching God's Word, and in small group breakouts.

Now, having said that, there is a separate group just for the boys that starts later in the year called G.A.N.G. (God’s Active Next Generation) that does do fun "active" things both inside and outside. There’s also a Girl’s G.A.N.G. The G.A.N.G.s start in September and go through May, the whole school year.

Do we ever get to go to the Junior High / High School service?

That is very good question! And the simple answer is no. The way our church is set up, we have specific lesson plans for each of the different age groups designed to grow you as Christ Followers at a level you can understand. In addition, we try and keep all of you that are the same age or close to the same age together so that you can relate to each other as friends.

The only time we leave T.R.A.C.K. and go to Big Church is during Baptisms or if we have a Family Service and there is no T.R.A.C.K. We do a fun service in the summer, though, where the little kids, from Kid’s Kingdom, come and visit us and we play games outside and eat popsicles. But, other than that, we stay with T.R.A.C.K., learn some awesome lessons, and get to sing cool worship songs!
