Children (1st-5th Grade)

Growing with First Baptist Texarkana

Kids UNITED

Where kids UNITE with other kids and have a BLAST learning about JESUS and His love for them!

Kids U offers Sunday morning and Wednesday evening services for kids currently enrolled in 1st – 5th grades.

Kids will be taught that the Bible tells one BIG story. The Bible is all about God. The Bible points to Jesus. The Bible calls for obedience that is grounded in the truth of the gospel and the power of the Holy Spirit. And, the Bible is the encouragement for Kids U to partner with parents and help create a culture of faith in Jesus within the home and beyond!

In Living Color

When: Wednesdays, beginning April 22

Where: kids U

Who: 1st through 5th-grade students.

Time: 6:00 p.m.- 7:00 p.m.

Each week, we’ll invite the kids to wear a different color. We will have fun, color-coordinated activities to match as we see how the Bible even uses colors to describe certain things. This is such a fun time to invite friends along to hear about the love of God—we’d love to see everyone there! We ask that you please register your child below if this is their first time attending for the semester.

Here are the dates and the color we’d love for the kids to wear:

April 22nd- Green
April 29th- Blue
May 6th- Purple
May 13th- Yellow
May 20th- Orange
May 27th- Red

You may drop your child off at 5:45  for some playful free time before structured activities begin at 6:00 p.m.

Become a Volunteer

Step inside our classrooms and you’ll find caring volunteers ready to build up and encourage your child. You’ll find that we integrate singing, Bible truths, crafts, and movement during our time with your child. We aim to teach the Gospel to kids by meeting many learning styles to reinforce the message.
