Welcome to Candlewood Kids!
"Together, we are his house, built on the foundation of the apostles and the prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself." - Ephesians 2:20 (NLT)
At Candlewood Church, we strive to blend excellence, nurture, and Christian foundation building in each Children's Ministry (Kidmin) Department from Nursery to Elementary, all while having a great time together! We believe our kids are the next generation of Pastors, Leaders, Volunteers, and the future of the Church! The bible says, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. " Proverbs 22:6 (MSG) and we believe this to be 100% truthful. Each volunteer has been state background checked and has completed their mandated state reporter training to ensure your child is safe, cared for, and happy! Let's meet the Departments...

Candlewood Kids is the connection for kids 1st grade - 5th grade. From lessons, to games, to demonstrations, to huge events, Candlewood Kids is not only the perfect place where kids can have fun, learn about God's Word in relevant ways, but also put that learning to practical use in the every day lives.
