GOD'S WILD KINGDOM
GOD'S WILD KINGDOM

We are passionate about helping children build a genuine relationship with God through a strong biblical foundation and meaningful friendships. 

Every Sunday, kids (Birth through 6th grade) engage in age-appropriate, safe environments where they can experience the Bible in creative and relevant ways. Our Executive Director of Family Ministries, Debbie Shaw, and Assistant Director of Family Ministries, Abby Jensen, are dedicated to helping kids understand Jesus in ways that are fun, engaging, and easy to grasp. 

But the fun and learning doesn't stop on Sundays! We also offer exciting opportunities throughout the year, including a children’s theater group, children’s choir, and a variety of special events that help kids grow in their faith and creativity.

Families are the lifeblood of a dynamic, growing church! We want to enable our church family to further their own faith journey while knowing their children are being cared for in a safe, welcoming environment.  

At Faith UMC, childcare services are provided by our capable, loving staff of child caregivers, who have been trained in basic First Aid and CPR. We offer childcare for most church sponsored events and activities by reservation as well as for all Sunday worship services. 

Our classrooms are "Nut Free", so please make sure any snack you might send with your child do not contain nuts.


KNO is open to all children 2 years of age (as of January 1, 2026) through 6th grade and runs from 6pm - 10pm. While the kids are here, they will play games, have pizza, hear a Bible story and make a craft. There will also be a movie time towards the end of the night. During the movie time we will supply the children with popcorn. (Goldfish for the youngest group) Please feel free to send your kids in their jammies if they want. 

KNO is $15 for the first child and $10 for and siblings.
