PearlandKIDS
Child Like Faith
Here at FUMC Pearland we are committed to partnering with families to make disciples by meeting children where they are and connecting with them. Our mission is to make your child feel safe, welcomed, and loved, the same way Jesus would have us do.
Every week we use activities, videos, discussions, and experiences to help our kids develop an age-appropriate understanding of the Bible and the basic truths it holds. We hope to set the precedent that children can have fun while discovering ways to spend time with God and others in a warm and loving environment.

Children’s Church
Parents, this is your opportunity to worship with the peace of mind that your children are learning as much as you are in their own age-appropriate way. We gather in the Nursery hallway in our respective classrooms to watch videos, make crafts, and play games relating to our weekly Bible stories. Your child will be sent home with a devotional for the week for you to continue the conversation about what we learned in class.
8:30 or 10:45 am
Worship in Motion
It’s time to take this show on the road! We’ll move to a large group room for worship songs and dancing because these growing bodies were made to move and praise the Lord. Afterwards, we may have a short recess outside on the playground or indoors with fine and gross motor activities.

What We’re Learning in the Nursery
Think about all the places you go in a single day—home, work, the store, and back again. Now consider this: there is nowhere you can go where God isn't already there. From a lions' den to the belly of a fish, the Bible is full of people who found that God was with them wherever they went. The same is true for us. Wherever we go, God is always with us.
"God is with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 NLT
Week One: God is always with me | Daniel & the Lions | Daniel 6:1-23
Week Two: God always hears me | Hagar & Ishmael | Genesis 21:14-20
Week Three: God is with me wherever I go | Joseph | Genesis 37, 39-47
Week Four: I can always talk to God | Jonah | Jonah 1-3:3
Sundays with PearlandKIDS
All children will need to checked in at a kiosk in either the lobby of the Sanctuary or Family Life Center prior to being dropped off for Sunday programming.
Sermon Sessions
Your children will attend the first part of the service with you. When the children’s message plays on the screens, a staff member or volunteer will lead your child to the PearlandKIDS room where we’ll watch videos, have discussions, and maybe even make a craft. Your children will be returned to you by a staff member or volunteer before the end of the worship service.
8:30 or 10:45 am | Traditional & NewSong
Sunday School
Before heading off to Adult Sunday school, stop by the PearlandKIDS room to drop your kiddos off at their Sunday school. This is a time for us to have a more in-depth look at each week’s lesson. We usually play games and have open conversations about that week’s topic. You will pick up your child from the Assembly Room.

What We’re Learning in PearlandKIDS
Just like a radio must be set to the right frequency to hear a station clearly, we can learn to recognize God's voice by spending time with Him and paying attention to the ways He speaks. Throughout this series, kids will explore how God speaks through the Bible, prayer, the Holy Spirit, other people, and the world around us.
