Children's New Believers Class

Share This

Did your child recently pray to receive Christ as Savior? Is your child interested in learning more about what it means to be a Christian? At Calvary, we want to partner with families to help children grow in their faith and make it their own.

Rising 3rd–6th graders who want to learn more about the foundational truths of Christianity and better understand their decision to follow Christ are invited to enroll. Classes are usually offered twice each year.

Register below for the Fall 2024 program

The program involves several components — See dates & details below:

Parent & Child Kick-off
Home Devotions over six weeks
Two Group Classes for Kids

Parent & Child Kick-off

Saturday, August 24 | 10:00–11:30 AM, Room 242
Parents will receive an introduction to discipleship, while children receive an age-appropriate overview of what it means to be a Christian and some of the fundamentals of the faith.

Home Devotions

Following the kick-off, parents have six weeks to complete a series of "fun-work" assignments with their children. It takes about 10 minutes each day, five days a week, to do the series together. (These must be completed by the first day of group classes.) This format encourages family communication and allows parents to demonstrate their desire to lead in spiritual development.

Group Classes for Kids

Two Saturday Sessions | September 28 & October 5 | 9:00 AM–Noon, Room 242
Lessons in these classes will focus on God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, communion, and baptism. We'll also discuss how to pray, resist temptation, and share one's testimony. Children are expected to attend both classes. At the end of the course, children will receive a 90-day devotional to encourage them to continue growing in their faith.
