Welcome to GP Kids, where kids GROW!
Join us as we help your child grow strong roots by building a strong faith foundation rooted in God's Word, worship, and prayer.
"It takes a village" could never be more true! Our goal is to to help grow strong families by equipping you to raise a generation of kids who grow in Christ and to connect our families with each other to build our faith village.
Our desire is to see each kid bloom and come to know the love of Jesus by developing a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior!
Our hope is that as each kid grows, they begin to spread the love of Jesus to those around them! Join us on Wednesdays as we dig deeper into what it means to be a disciple or follower of Christ!

Can you remember the last time you got lost in a really good book? The epic quests, daring escapes, and wild adventures make it hard to put down! While our lives might not include mythical creatures or fantastical lands, we’re all part of an incredible adventure—following God and helping others do the same. Each week, kids will explore the amazing and true stories about Jesus that show us what it means to live for God. In this 5-week series, kids will discover the true story of how Jesus is always with us, God helps us be righteous, God hears us when we pray, the Holy Spirit gives us power, and God helps us share the good news.
BIG IDEAS & BIBLE STORIES

WEEKLY CURRICULUM SUMMARIES:
- This week, kids learn the true story of how Jesus went up to heaven after promising the Holy Spirit. At the end of some adventure stories, the leader leaves, and the team wonders how they'll go on. This week, we’ll see how Jesus’ followers felt the same way when he left for heaven, but he promised that his presence would stay with them through the Holy Spirit. His promise wasn’t just for them—it’s for us too, because true story—Jesus is always with us.
- This week, kids hear the true story of how Ananias and Sapphira tried to deceive the Early Church. A true adventure hero stays honest and does the right thing for the right reasons. This week, we’ll see how Ananias and Sapphira tried to make themselves look good by hiding the truth, but their dishonesty led to serious consequences. The good news is that God doesn’t expect us to be perfect, but when we choose truth, true story—God helps us be righteous.
- This week, kids hear the true story of Peter’s miraculous escape from prison. A quest is filled with dangers and obstacles—sometimes, a warrior gets trapped with no way out. This week, we’ll hear how Peter was locked up in jail, heavily guarded, and escape seemed impossible. But when the church prayed for him, God sent an angel to set him free, proving that true story—God hears us when we pray.
- This week, kids learn the true story of how Paul and Silas were joyful in prison. Daring adventures always have moments where the main character faces challenges and has to find strength beyond their own. This week, we’ll see how Paul and Silas faced grueling times but stayed strong, joyful, and full of faith. Instead of relying on themselves, they leaned on God because true story—the Holy Spirit gives us power.
- This week, kids hear the true story of how even a shipwreck couldn't keep Paul from telling others about Jesus. Every adventure has unexpected setbacks and obstacles that make the journey harder than expected. This week, we’ll see how Paul faced a terrifying shipwreck as a prisoner on his way to Rome but never stopped trusting God and sharing the good news with those around him. His story reminds us that no matter what challenges we face, true story—God helps us share the good news.
Memory Verse:
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes."
— Romans 1:16a (NIV)
