PearlandKIDS
PearlandKIDS is committed to partnering with families to make disciples by meeting ALL children where they are and connecting with them. We believe that Scripture is life-changing and helps us grow and nurtures our relationship with Jesus. Each child is unique, and we seek opportunities for children to discover and develop their unique gifts so they can care for the needs of others and share the love of Jesus with everyone they meet!
Spend Time With God, Spend Time With Others, Use Your Gifts, and Share Your Story are the 4 Spiritual Habits featured in our GROW curriculum. Every week, children learn more about these spiritual habits through unique videos, activities, discussions, and experiences.
Sunday Morning Activities

Sermon Sessions
Each Sunday during all of our worship services we offer a time especially designed for the children ages K-4th grade called PearlandKIDS Sermon Session! Children are invited into a kid friendly space where they have time for fellowship and an age appropriate lesson during the sermon. Children then return to the worship service for communion with their family or the final worship song.
Our volunteers have all submitted background checks, receive regular training, and follow Safe Sanctuary guidelines.
-
Sunday School
At 9:30 am, we have Sunday School for children grades K-4th.
Our current series, Recess, is a five-week series looking at how God can make us stronger, help us belong, answers our prayers, gives us truth, and how God can do big things with every little thing we offer up.
Our volunteers have all submitted background checks, receive regular training, and follow Safe Sanctuary guidelines.

What We’re Learning
As we head back to the Old Testament for Ruth and Judges for our series Recess, we’ll use a playground-theme to talk about some “judges” kids might be familiar with, like referees in their favorite playground games.
In this five-week series, we'll take a look at stories from Ruth, Judges, and Samuel to learn how God helps them grow stronger, how He helps them belong, how He answers their prayers, how He tells them what is true, and how God can use anything they give Him.
Week 1: June 1
Gather up, everyone! It's time for Recess! Whether you're the fastest on field day, or you prefer to pass on P.E. class, today we'll learn how we can all grow stronger, just like a guy from the Bible named Gideon.
BIG IDEA: God helps me grow stronger
BIBLE STORY: Judges 6-7;
2 Corinthians 4:5-9
Week 2: June 8
Welcome back to Recess! Today, we're going to pick teams! Nobody likes being picked last for a team, but today we'll learn from the story of Naomi and Ruth that it doesn't matter who picked you...as long as you have God on your team, you will always belong!
BIG IDEA: God helps me belong
BIBLE STORY: Ruth 1;
Mark 3:31-35
Week 3: June 15
Time for Recess! The word "recess" actually means taking a pause or a break. Today's Bible story is about someone who felt like her life was on permanent recess because she didn't have the one thing she really wanted. She learned, like we will, that God listens when we pray!
BIG IDEA: God answers my prayers
BIBLE STORY: 1 Samuel 1;
Psalm 20
Week 4: June 22
Welcome back to Recess! Not gonna lie, recess used to be my favorite time of the day when I was in elementary school. I mean, I could say my favorite was science, but that wouldn't be the truth- I just loved playing with my friends! Today we'll learn about the importance of listening to God and telling the truth through the story of Samuel.
BIG IDEA: God tells me what is true
BIBLE STORY: 1 Samuel 3:1-20; Job 38:1-11
Week 5: June 29
It's another exciting Recess time! So far, we learned from the stories of Gideon, Ruth, Naomi, Hannah and Samuel to see that God helps us in so many ways: making us stronger, helping us belong, answering our prayers, and giving us truth. Today, we'll see what we can do for God. God can do big things with every little thing we offer up!
BIG IDEA: God can use anything I give
BIBLE STORY: 1 Samuel 9-10; 1; 2 Corinthians 8: 7-15

Resources
Family is your first church.
As Jessica Lagrone, mother and theologian, said in the forward to Grow at Home, "Family is the place where we develop our first inklings of what God is like, whether someone knows they are teaching or not. Faith is formed at the dinner table, in questions thrown back and forth from the backseat, and in bedtime conversations."
It is in the routines of our every day life that we form the faith of our children. Parents, because you matter so much, we want to help you make faith a family practice.
