But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”

Luke 18: 16

Trinity Kids provides spiritual guidance, education, & community for children from infancy through 5th grade. For Preschool through 5th grade, the “contemplative model”; of children’s ministry is used to provide the framework for learning about the stories of the Bible, with a focus back to the gospel & salvation of Jesus Christ. Lessons and discussions are hands-on, reflective, and open-ended. Please contact Julia Guy (julia@trinityanglicanmission.org) with any questions or to learn more about Godly Play and the contemplative model.

The Great Green Growing Season

As the Easter Season ends, we will be beginning a time of learning and growing often called “Common Time” on the Liturgical calendar. In trinitykids, we call this time the “Great Green Growing” Season, as that is what we strive to do. This season is a time for learning more about the work of Jesus and the work that he has commissioned us to do, which is to “…go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you” (Matthew 28: 19-20). The lessons that are taught during this time are focused on the parabolic teachings of Jesus, as well as character studies & story telling from the Old Testament. This is a special time for growing in our faith and learning more about our role as the hands and feet of Christ. Another important aspect of this time will be the beginning of the summer schedule in trinitykids. Similar to last summer, students will join their parents for worship during the months of June, July, and August. Students in preschool through 5th grade will then be checked in as usual (after the initial musical worship time has ended), at which time they will enjoy a lesson or art response time, led by one of the trinitykids teachers.
