The DLBC Children's Ministry is beginning a new program on Sunday September 4, 2011 called "TeamKID". KID stands for "Kids In Discipleship". We will start the program during 1st Service Children's Church, continue with the program through the Sunday School teaching, and then repeat the main lesson in 2nd Service Children's Church. Parents must register their children to participate in TeamKID. We will also continue the program on Wednesday eveinings and we are changing the time to be from 6pm - 7:30pm . TeamKID is also only for children 5 years of age up through 5th grade. Four year olds will be able to attend Children's Church and then they will go to the Nursery/Pre-school building for their Sunday School time and on Wednesday Nights.

For the first year your children will be learning about different Bible characters that represent Godly characters such as Righteousness, Honesty, Responsibility, Kindness, and much more.

We are very excited about this new program and we pray that you will be too.

If you are interested in being a part of the "Coaching Staff" for TeamKID please let us know! We are very excited about the TeamKID program and are looking for new and creative things to teach the children on Wednesday Nights. Right now we have dance, puppets/drama, life skills, crafts, and worship team classes being taught. After Christmas we would like to teach some other classes like sign language, face painting, knitting or crocheting, ettiquette and manners, balloon art, etc. For more information, contact Kay Mattern at kmattern1@netzero.com or Brenda Gilmore at BrendaGilmore@cfl.rr.com.

"A Time To Dance" is a Dance Ministry for children ages 7-12 years of age. Two of our Students, Jennifer Grocke and Lila Villalobos will be the instructors and Pam Grocke will be the Adult Facilitator. If you would like for your child to be a part of this ministry please bring them to the class and sign them up. Sunday from 11am - 12pm in the LOFT.

Vacation Bible School - For one week in the summer the DLBC Children's Ministry organizes Vacation Bible School. This program is designed for 4yr olds up through the completion of 5th grade. Kids learn about God's truths through music, crafts, Bible stories, games, and much more.

Trunk or Treat - DLBC members come together for a fun Halloween alternative where we set up out of the trunks of our cars and invite children from our community to come and receive treats, hear Bible Stories, play games, etc on October 31.

Operation Christmas Child - Each year our Children's Ministry host the annual Operation Christmas Child shoebox mission giving. We help send shoe boxes to Children all over the world containing items of clothing, shoes, toys, soaps, toothpaste and toothbrushes, books, drawing and coloring items, etc. This ministry was started by Franklin Graham and DLBC has participated every year. Our children and members experience the joy of sharing in Jesus birthday with children around the world.
