What We're About

The Children’s Ministry serves children in first through fifth grades; empowering and equipping them to know and love Jesus, while also encouraging families to grow their faith at home. Our vision for children is that they would come to love Jesus Christ; love His Word; and share the love of Christ with others. We are passionate about kids, Jesus and Cypress!

We Value

1. Parents as the primary disciple makers of their children. Our role is secondary and viewed as a partnership.
2. Developmentally appropriate Bible teaching.
3. Building relationship and community.
4. Equipping children to serve in the church and in the world.

Sundays

Life Bible Study + Kids' Worship

For kids at Houston's First, Sundays are split into two distinct parts. While you are transitioning between worship service and bible study, your kids are doing the same.

9:30a — LBS Classes for 1st–5th Graders, Kid’s Worship for 1st–3rd Graders
11a — LBS Classes for 1st–5th Graders, Kid’s Worship for 1st–3rd Graders

Sunday provides one of the best times for 1st-5th graders to learn and interact with other children their same age. Age-appropriate Life Bible Study is available at 9:30a and 11a.

Family Worship

Family Worship are special Sundays when parents are able to both model worship and participate in worship with their children in our main worship service. On these Sundays there is no Heartland or Kids’ Worship. Family Worship occurs any month that has a 5th Sunday, Easter Sunday, Sunday after Thanksgiving, and the Sunday closest to Christmas.

Wednesdays

While you attend a MidLink gathering, 1st–5th graders gather at BLAST—which stands for “building lives around scripture and truth”—where they will experience age-appropriate Bible study and small groups.

6p — BLAST (1st-5th Grade)
