eKids

Our prayer is that kids who come to Eastside know what it means to have a real, personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We want your kids to grow in their knowledge and love for the Savior. We want them to be so excited that they go out and tell everyone the Good News of Jesus’ love! 

KNOW – Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me”. John 14:6 NIV
GROW – Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Ephesians 5:1-2 NIV
GO – Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 28:19 NIV

    NEW BELIEVERS CLASS

    COMING JANUARY 2025

    We offer a New Believer’s class for kids! This class will run for four weeks and will be for those kids who have accepted Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, as well as kids who are beginning to ask spiritual questions. We will be offering these classes on Sunday mornings at 9:30 AM several times per year. We will go through the curriculum “The Gospel: God’s Plan for Me.” For the last class of the four-week course, we will ask you to join your child so we can answer any questions, give you details of the baptism service, as well as go over the family guide that will be part of you and your child’s learning activities together.
