Your Children
We realize that your children are a gift from God to you. We realize that the most influential people group in a child’s life is the family, and we realize that parents desire a safe, nurturing place that will help them help their children come to know and love Jesus.
For these very reasons, we are passionate about partnering with parents to connect their children to Jesus and to help them grow spiritually. Kianga Land, Little Safari, and SAFARI Kids are environments that have been designed to help parents grow their children spiritually.
Their Culture
We understand that in today’s culture, boys and girls are:
- Technically savvy
- Current on trends
- Think in short bites of information
- Think that most people live like they do
- Active in extra curricular activities
- Short on time
- Surrounded by media
Knowing this about children, our weekend environments are designed and targeted for specific ages of childhood development that will help children connect to God and others.
Our Commitment
In SAFARI Kids we are committed to partnering with parents in connecting their children to Jesus and to help them grow spiritually, loving them like Jesus did.
Matthew 19:13-15
Some children were brought to Jesus so He could lay His hands on them and pray for them. The disciples told them not to bother Him. But Jesus said, “Let the children come to Me. Don’t stop them! For the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” And He put His hands on their heads and blessed them before He left.
