Welcome to Kid City!
Kid City seeks to partner with families in the faith development of children. It is our desire to help bring children to Christ, to develop their relationship with Christ and each other, and to equip them for works of service. We embrace the unique needs children have from birth through sixth grade for fun, age-appropriate, energetic, and meaningful activities. We believe that we grow in our relationship with Christ through celebration, community and call.
DivorceCare for Kids, DC4K, is designed for children ages 5-12 whose parents are separated or divorced. Our DivorceCare for Kids combines activities, music, and DVD dramas to create a safe place for kids. Kids learn to understand their feelings and express their emotions appropriately while they find joy and hope built on God’s love.
