We want to partner with you to help your kids love Jesus with their hearts and trust him with their lives.
It really does take a village. Amazing things can happen in kids’ lives when their parents and churches work together. It’s the most important practice in helping kids grow confident in their knowledge of God. When you check your child into First Kids, they’re not being entertained – they’re experiencing Jesus through loving volunteers, engaging lessons, music, and crafts.
Sunday School
We offer a full graded Children’s Sunday School and Nursery presenting age-appropriate children’s curriculum meeting at 9:00 a.m. until 10:10 every Sunday.
NURSERY: Ages birth - 4 years old
PRESCHOOL: 4 years old - Kindergarten

Jr. Worship (during service)
Jr. Worship is designed to create a safe, nurturing and loving environment that reflects God’s love and to come alongside each child to disciple their heart and teach in a way that is age and need appropriate.
This ministry takes place during the 10:30A church worship service for children in Pre-K to Second grade. The children are dismissed after worship time from the sanctuary, and have their own Bible lesson as well as crafts and games.
This is a great way for Children to hear God’s word on their level, and to fellowship with other children.
Kid’s of the King
Kids of the King (KOTK) is our children’s choir. Children from 1st grade to 6th grade serve by learning and leading worship songs both during our services and during special events.
The KOTK rehearse each Sunday night during the school year from 6:00pm-7:00pm. Any children interested in joining are encouraged to contact Brandy Kline, the children’s choir CONTACT Brandy Kline at KIDSOFTHEKING@FBCMAN.ORG
