Collage of children at St. John's UMC

St. John's welcomes all of our children to come join us for these programs...

Rotation Sunday School Workshop

Easter groupWorkshop Rotation, the children's Sunday school program combines the newest concepts in education with the Biblical teachings of traditional Sunday school. Today's children learn through visualization, and hands-on experiences. The goal of Workshop Rotation is to take an ordinary Sunday school classroom and transform it into a full scale-learning environment including sounds, aromas, hands on activities and an overall visually stimulating environment. We have over 50 children in Sunday School each week. Our goal is to double that number by next year.

Kids for Christ

fun in the pool"Kids for Christ" is a fellowship group for children in grades 4 through 6. We meet on Sunday evenings from 6 pm to 8 pm. We build friendships with other children and our adult sponsors by participating in a variety of service projects and fun activities.

Super Sixers

Group by the fireplace"Super Sixers" is made up of sixth graders that get to split off from Kids for Christ into their own special group beginning in February of each year. They enjoy participating in special activities just for them in preparation for their promotion into the Junior High Youth Group. This great group of kids concludes their experience in Children's Ministries with an overnight trip to "Fish Camp."

Biblezone

shepherdsBiblezone is our Wednesday evening program for all children in grades 1 through 6. They meet in the south basement at 6 pm right after the All Church Dinner. They explore bible studies through drama, games, science experiments, and a variety of crafts.

Vacation Bible School

boys playing golfLava Lava Island (June 21-25) is overflowing with fun for children, teenagers, and adults. Everyone involved in this Vacation Bible School will jump in with both feet... and never be the same again! As kids explore the life of Jesus, they'll take part in great music, and visit five different Island Stations each day. Then everyone will come together for the closing, Lava Lava Luau. This exciting week of adventure will be shared with our friends in Christ from Santa Maria de La Paz Catholic Community and San Isidro Catholic Church.

 

Summer Conference Camp

climbing a treeSpending a week in the beautiful Sacramento Mountains at the Methodist Assembly camp can be a life changing experience for a child. This camp is available for all children who have completed grades 4 or 5. The children will learn about God's love for them as they meet new friends from other churches in our conference, play games, learn new songs, create skits, and rejoice in Christian fellowship.
