![]() Find your purposeTaking the love of Jesus to the children who attend our Sunday morning worship services and Family Experience are what the Children’s ministries of Resurrection Life Church Rockford are all about!
Team members value the fact that all children are on a spiritual journey regardless of their state of development and that the purpose of our Children’s Ministry is to nurture children in their journey to take steps towards Christ. They are committed to helping make an hour at church the best hour of a child’s week. If you’re passionate about helping children through teaching, crafts, music and small group discussions, or just want to help out in any way with children, this ministry is for you. In order to keep our children and team members safe, we require background checks before serving.

Show a three-year-old a rainbow and his eyes pop open, he laughs and murmurs something that sounds semi-close to English. That’s wonder. Show a third grader how pleasing God connects to honoring her parents and she will most likely look at you funny and continue eating her pizza. That’s discovery.

We will offer this type of production on a monthly basis. Each segment of the Fx has a specific goal. There will be lots of “fun” elements to this program; Interaction with the audience, visual breaks for kids, and singing and movement just to name a few. The actors will initially create a dilemma or situation that needs to be resolved. Throughout the service, we will establish the upcoming month’s virtue and present the Bible as a source of wisdom and direction to resolving that tension. This is a great way to present Biblical Truth in an applicable way with the family unit celebrating and experiencing it together.
