What does Parkridge believe about kids?
ParkridgeKids wants to partner with parents so that children can learn to love God and His Word in fun and exciting ways, to encourage them to love people, serve others and go out into the world and share about Jesus.
Each child from babies through 5th grade is taught in an age-appropriate environment.
ParkridgeKids teachers are passionate about children’s ministry, have been through an extensive training process, and have been screened to work with children through a national background check.

Worship Service
The Bible is clear that families should worship together. This helps children, as early as kindergarten, to learn to love God as they worship Him and hear the Bible preached.
We want your child to experience all that the worship service has to offer so that, one day, they can live out their faith as they serve others and go to the nations with the Good News of Jesus.
Children can take sermon notes on the note taking guide, provided in the bulletin, and then bring the guide, filled out, to the ParkridgeKids INFO desk and receive a token for a special prize.
