HopeKids

HopeKids is our high-energy, weekend program for children age 3 (by Sept. 15 and potty-trained) through grade 5. At HopeKids, children will experience dynamic teachings and upbeat worship songs during opening and closing worship, with relevant breakout activities in between. This rotational style format is a great way to engage kids in learning about God’s love!

HopeKids will be weekly throughout the school year.

  • Saturdays, 5:00 pm
  • Sundays, 9:30 am
  • Sundays, 11:00 am

  3. New, better-than-ever format with your favorite VBS music, science experiments, Bible teachings, small groups and more!
  4. New leadership opportunities for students in grades 4-5 to show younger kids (and grown-ups, too!) what an activated faith looks like!
  5. Fun weekend recaps on social media that highlight what kids learned, the fun they had, why volunteers love serving, what to talk to your kids about that week and more! Follow us on Instagram!

Volunteers are needed!

If you’re feeling the nudge to help out with HopeKids, it’s easy to volunteer! The only requirements are that you love Jesus, love kids, register to volunteer, and fill out a background check form as part of the volunteer registration form (because the safety of our kids has always been a high value at Hope). We’ll take care of the rest, including all the training and support you need to help point thousands of kids to the everlasting love of Jesus Christ!
