Grade School (5 yrs old – Grade 5)

Volunteering in Fox Kids Elementary offers a uniquely rewarding experience helping children learn and grow in Christ. Grade school volunteering begins each weekend service in grade-level classrooms for welcome, connection, and some time to settle in.  Then, each class is led to the Kids Theater for large group kids worship with a live band, worship singers, and dancers, followed by an enthusiastic or animated reading of a story from the Bible.  Kids then return to their classrooms for small group time, reflecting on the bible story or doing a craft or activity related to it.
