At Ballardsville Baptist Church, our kids (infant through 5th grade) experience safe, age-appropriate environments where they learn about Jesus in a creative and relevant way. From Sunday morning small groups to exciting, fun-filled summer events, each interaction is a building block to help kids "grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ". (II Peter 3:18).
We strive to help each child grow as disciples of Christ by:
- Receiving Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
- Developing disciplines such as prayer, Bible study, key verses, and worship.
- Learning to behave and make decisions that reflect internalized biblical values.
- Serving God and others with their abilities and gifts.
