“First Kids”
The First Kids Ministry serves first through fifth graders and their parents. Our mission is to reach children, teach children, and equip children to be fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ our King and Savior. Our mission is lived out through our strategic values. Our values are strategic in that they are specifically focused with the purpose of becoming our identity. We value…
- Parents as the primary disciplers of their children. Our role is secondary and viewed as a partnership.
- Children having a relationship with Jesus that enables them to make wise choices according to scripture.
- The role and importance of children being confident in prayer, worship, missions, and sharing the Good News with their friends.

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.
9:15a — LBS Classes & Kids’ Worship
10:45a — LBS Classes & Kids’ Worship
5p — Kids’ Worship
6:30p — LBS Classes
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 9:15a, 10:45a and 6:15p, for all children.
For more information about our Kids’ Worship and LBS Class options see the Growing Our Souls section below.

Parents, our First Kids mission strategy is for Sunday morning to be the best two hours of your kid’s week! Come join us for two extra hours every Wednesday night for KidLink — the overall name for all that happens for 1-5 graders on Wednesday nights at the Loop Campus! At KidLink we aim to connect Sunday to Sunday through an action packed evening of worship and discipleship each spring and fall semester.

Special Needs Kids
Thru the Roof is the Special Needs Ministry of Houston’s First Baptist Church. We believe it is all part of God’s plan to care, love and welcome children and adults with special needs into our church fellowship and community. Therefore, we consider it a privilege to offer Life Bible Study classes, buddies for children, a well trained staff of volunteers and caring individuals to make Sunday the best day of the week for your family member
