New Breed Kids
Short Bible stories, songs, hands-on activities, and learning kindness through play help our younger children discover Jesus and build friendships.
NEW BREED CHILDREN & YOUTH MINISTRY
A place to belong.
A faith to grow.
Helping the next generation love Jesus, build meaningful friendships, and make a difference.
FAITH. FRIENDSHIP. PURPOSE.
Growing together,
with Jesus at the center.
Our youth ministry helps children and young people know Jesus, build meaningful friendships, and discover their God-given purpose. We partner with families to create a welcoming environment where every young person is valued and encouraged to grow.
Our youth ministry team brings encouragement, care, and creativity to that journey. Led by Youth Ministry Director Ivy E., we partner with families to help the next generation grow in confidence, character, and a personal relationship with Jesus.
A PLACE TO LEARN AND GROW
Two groups.
One growing faith.
We welcome children ages 3–12, with two groups designed to help them learn and grow at their stage of life.
New Breed Juniors
Interactive Bible lessons, honest questions, friendship, prayer, and opportunities to serve help older children connect faith with school, friendships, and everyday choices.
OUR SUNDAY EXPERIENCE
Learning in groups.
Praying as a family.
Children share in the worship service, enjoy time with their age group, and come together with their families and church community for prayer.
A welcoming start
Following offering, children gather at the back of the sanctuary, where our ministry staff greet them and guide them to their separate spaces.
Time with their age group
New Breed Kids, ages 3–6, and New Breed Juniors, ages 7–12, meet in their respective spaces for Bible learning, friendship, and activities suited to their ages.
One church family
During altar call, both groups gather for prayer with their parents and other congregants. This shared time helps children experience prayer as part of the whole church family.
Supervision during altar call: Children may remain with their age group under continued staff supervision or reunite with their parents under parental supervision. This allows families to share in prayer while keeping each child’s supervision clear. If you would like your child to join you for prayer, please let a ministry staff member know.
Visiting for the first time? Meet our ministry staff at the back of the sanctuary following offering. We’ll help your child find their group and answer your questions. Before your child leaves for their group, please share any allergies or support needs with staff and provide a current contact number.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Faith that connects
with real life.
Our ministry is shaped around a simple goal: helping young people feel welcome, grow in faith, and put love into action.
A warm welcome
A friendly environment where young people can meet others, feel included, and bring their questions. You do not have to know all the answers to start growing.
Jesus-centered learning
Age-appropriate Bible teaching and conversations that connect God’s Word with friendships, choices, challenges, and everyday life.
Friendship and participation
Interactive learning, creative activities, and opportunities to build relationships—with encouragement to participate at a comfortable pace.
Prayer and encouragement
Support as young people learn to pray, recognize their gifts, and grow in confidence in who God created them to be.
Love in action
A heart for kindness and service that helps young people see how their choices can make a difference at home, at school, and in their community.
A connection with families
We value parents and caregivers as partners. Our team welcomes conversations about your child’s interests, questions, and what will help them feel at home.
A WELCOME FROM OUR DIRECTOR

a place here.
Ivy E.

We look forward to helping your child feel at home, build friendships, and grow in faith. Whether your family is visiting for the first time or already calls New Breed home, we’re glad to partner with you as your child discovers Jesus and their God-given purpose.
Ask About Children’s MinistryPARTNERING WITH PARENTS
Growing in faith.
Caring for one another.
Every young person deserves to feel welcomed, valued, and encouraged. We partner with families to help children and youth build friendships, practice kindness, and grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Growing together with kindness and respect
We encourage children and young people to:
- Use kind words and gentle actions.
- Listen to leaders and ask for help when needed.
- Respect one another and care for shared spaces.
- Include others and help everyone feel welcome.
- Enjoy learning, participating, and growing together.
When a child needs extra support
We understand that children communicate and learn differently. Please share any support needs so we can work together to help your child participate.
Our team offers calm reminders, encouragement, and support suited to each child’s age and needs. When concerns continue, we partner privately with parents to develop a helpful plan. If there is an immediate safety concern, we contact the parent or guardian promptly.
Helping everyone stay healthy
If your child is feeling unwell or has a contagious illness, please allow them time to recover at home. Share allergies or important health needs with our team before participation so we can discuss how best to support your child.
Please provide a current contact number and remain reachable during ministry activities. If your child becomes unwell while with us, we will contact you and arrange pickup when needed.
Supervision during altar call
During altar call, children may remain with their group under staff supervision or join their parents under parental supervision. Please let a ministry staff member know when your child joins you.
Keeping parents informed
If your child is hurt or becomes unwell during ministry activities, we will provide appropriate assistance and communicate with you. For an urgent concern, staff will seek appropriate help and contact the parent or guardian as soon as possible. Minor incidents will be explained when your child rejoins you or before your family leaves, or earlier when appropriate.
If your child shares a concern with you after leaving, please contact the church and ask to speak with Youth Ministry Director Ivy E. We welcome your questions and want to work together to support your family.
