Imagine leaving a life of privilege and power to face angry mobs, painful imprisonment, and chain-breaking earthquakes--all to spread the life-changing truth ofGod's love. Leartn the jaw-dropping story of the Apostle Paul straight from Paul himself! In an ancient "anything goes" culture, Paul will inspire kids to share the truth of God's immeasurable love today!

Vallejo Drive has created sacred spaces for children ages 4-12 to worship God. After hearing the children’s story in the sanctuary worship service, kids are invited to one of three age-appropriate spaces where they interact with a scripture story through the creative storytelling of their worship leader and the hands-on crafts and activities that offer children the opportunity to reflect and create in response to what the Bible says. The worship space for ages 4-5 is in room 206; the space for ages 6-8 is in room 204—both rooms are on the upper level of the Education Wing. The worship space for ages 9-12 is in the chapel with entrance on the lower level.
These spaces are designed for children who are comfortable without their parents’ supervision so that the entire room’s focus can be centered on God and His story without distraction. There are activity bags available at the Hostess Desk in the lobby for children who would rather stay with their parents in the sanctuary. For more information on children’s church, contact the church office or Jenelle Westerbeck Anderson, Director.
Children who are interested in developing their vocal skills and learning how to sing in a choir are invited to join the children’s choir. Thirty-minute rehearsals happen most Saturday’s after worship in the chapel and the choir performs for sanctuary worship on the third Saturday of each month.
