Children’s New Believers Class
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.
2nd–5th 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 typically offered twice a year — in the fall and spring.
Please check back for our next class!
The program involves several components — See dates & details below:
- Parent & Child Kick-off Meeting
- Home Devotions over six weeks
- Four Group Classes for Kids
Parent & Child Kick-off
Sunday, 8:30–9:30 AM, Room 231
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. The series takes about 10 minutes each day, five days a week. (It must be completed by the first day of group classes.) This format fosters family communication and enables parents to demonstrate their commitment to leading in spiritual development.
Group Classes for Kids
Four Sundays, 11:15 AM–12:15 PM, Room 304
Lessons in these classes will focus on God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, communion, and baptism. We’ll also discuss prayer, resisting temptation, and sharing 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.
