1st - 5th Grade
Great Adventure
Sunday mornings at 9AM, 11AM and 5PM in the Great Adventure room.
For kids in first grade to those having completed fifth grade.
The staff and volunteers are committed to making the Bible real to kids through creative large group teaching and intimate small group relationships.
Our curriculum is virtue based and is communicated through music, creative drama, and a bible lesson. Each kid is connected with a group of their peers and a dedicated small group leader. We have teams of volunteers who strive to make it the best hour of the week for your kids.
We would like to help your family talk about the weekly virtues and Bible stories through "fridge door" available when you pick up your child.
Click here to check out our curriculum "252 Basics" that teaches kids to grow in wisdom, faith and friendships.
Heartland Loves Sick Kids
Posted: Dec 01 2011
But please keep them home! Sick kids like to stay home and if you have healthy kids you know you like them to stay home too.
What's "too sick" to go to church. Here's the list of yuckyness.
- Fever above 100 degrees Fahrenheit during the past 24 hours
- Signs of possible severe illness such as uncontrolled coughing, difficulty breathing, wheezing, persistent crying or lethargy
- Diarrhea, such as loose or runny stools including a stool that runs out of a diaper
- Vomiting (once a child has vomited, most health providers recommend or require that the child not return to school or daycare for a minimum of 24 hours)
- Any rash, especially one accompanied by a fever or behavior change
Children’s Ministry Runs on Volunteer Power!!
Posted: Aug 18 2011
Heartland has over 500 kids every weekend and they run on volunteer power. Volunteers help kids feel like they belong, they help kids understand that Jesus loves them and they have FUN with the kids. We have hundreds of volunteers who love it so much they are returning for another year. However, we need 68 new volunteers to make it a great year in Children's Ministry. Want to volunteer? Get started here. Have a question? Contact Jennifer Giuseffi
Hey 5th Graders!
Posted: May 20 2011
You only have a few days left as 5th graders and guess what? 6th graders move up from Great Adventure and go to Middle School ministry! Your last day in Great Adventure is June 5th and we want to celebrate you moving on up. In fact, we want you to invite your parents for the first 15 minutes of Great Adventure so they can celebrate you too! Starting June 19th you will go to the Youth Room at the 11:00 service to be with leader Shibu Matthew and his team. Keep in mind that youth ministry happens only at 11:00. If your family loves the 9:00 service you can continue to come this summer and join a 4th grade group but you want to make plans to go to the 11:00 in the fall. You are going to love the change! Go here to learn more about Middle School Ministry.
