September-April
Missions is all about people from every tongue, tribe, and nation giving God glory! All of us, whether young or old, are made for that purpose. As a sending church, Calvary wants our kids to develop a heart for the nations now. Our desire is that our kids will be sensitive to God’s call on their lives and actively be a part of what God is doing to draw people to Himself, both here and around the globe.
Doors open at 6:15pm for drop off. Pick up is at 8:00pm.
Psalm 96:2-3
Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all people!
Read Around the World
Kids in First–Sixth Grade will be invited to participate in our Read Around the World missions reading incentive program. Information will be sent home with your child in October and will be available in the library throughout the year.
God calls us to declare His glory among the nations!
Little Discovery Clubs
Age 2–PreK
We’ll learn about missions by first learning about how God made the world and all the people in it. The great commission includes all of us, even if our mission field is our very own neighborhood.
Nursery ministry is available for children six months–two years, A parent must be on-site at all times.
Kindergarten
We use a curriculum based on teaching from Foundations Worldview. It is so important that our little ones begin to understand that there is TRUTH and that it is found in God and His Word. Our desire is that our kids will develop a strong biblical worldview that is rooted in the TRUTH of Scripture. Our prayer is that, as they grow in their understanding and belief, they will live out the beauty and goodness that is found in a relationship with Jesus so that others will want to know and worship Him too!
First Grade
Missions is all about people hearing of and choosing to worship Jesus! Focusing on the life of Jesus is a good place to start on our elementary missions journey because God desires for everyone to have a relationship with Him through His Son. He’s the source of the good news of the gospel! In addition to studying the life of Christ each week, we will also “travel” to ten countries, where the people have learned about Jesus through the showing of “The Jesus Film.” We’ll have fun playing games, making crafts, and even occasionally sampling foods from these countries.
Second Grade
This year in clubs, we will be “on a mission” to learn more about…
- other countries and cultures.
- God’s heart for the world.
- who God has used in the past to spread the good news about Jesus.
- how God can use us today.
- the need for people all around the world to have the good news in their heart language.
- our Global Partners who are spreading the Good News through a variety of jobs and methods.
Third Grade
We will learn to W.R.A.P. the World in Prayer and share Jesus using a cool tool called the EvangeCube! We will be introduced to our Calvary Church Global Partners who serve in Europe and use a variety of games, crafts, and food to introduce the students to a variety of European cultures.
Fourth Grade
God gives us the awesome privilege of being used to make His name known around the world! We’ll learn that we can do that by getting involved as prayers, givers, senders, connectors, welcomers, and goers. We will also learn about Bible translation and the work of Wycliffe Bible Translators.
Fifth Grade
We nail down the big truths of the gospel so that the students learn to identify the big lies that many people believe. We introduce the students to the T.H.U.M.B. people groups (Tribal, Hindu, Chinese, Muslim and Buddhist) so that they will know how to use the Bible to share its truth with others who don’t worship Jesus. We learn about other cultures through games and activities, and we enjoy guest speakers.
Sixth Grade
Many of the themes from the previous five years are reviewed and taught in new ways. We will take a look at issues of poverty around the globe and be challenged to respond in biblical ways. During the last half of the year, the students will learn and practice a variety of methods for sharing their faith through natural everyday conversations. Students will be challenged and motivated to trust God to use them to draw others to Himself.
