CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
WELCOME TO RFBCKIDS
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one! You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up."
— Deuteronomy 6:4-7
At Rockwood First Baptist Church, our Children's Ministry is committed to helping children build a strong Biblical foundation through a variety of engaging experiences, including learning, music, movement, and fun activities. From the youngest infants to children in 5th grade, we provide age-appropriate lessons and activities that guide children toward a deeper understanding of God’s love and the example of Jesus Christ.
Our goal is to create meaningful opportunities for children to explore their faith, engage with others, and grow in their relationship with Jesus. We pray that through these experiences, our children will develop a lifelong passion for following Christ.

WHAT'S BEST FOR
YOUR FAMILY?
Rockwood First Baptist Church always has an opportunity for you!
Wether you attend in Sunday morning or our AWANA ministry on Wednesday evening, a friendly volunteer will show you where our Kids Check-In is when you arrive. We will meet your family, check your child into class, and answer any questions you may have. We can't wait to meet you!
SAFETY AT RFBCKIDS
YOUR KIDS ARE SAFE
At RFBCKids, our dedicated volunteers are trained to create a safe, welcoming environment where parents can confidently entrust their children while they attend services. Each volunteer undergoes a thorough background check, is CPR certified, and all children's areas are closely monitored by security personnel and cameras for added safety. In our Nursery, children are checked in securely, and parents receive a ticket for pick-up. For your peace of mind, no child will be released without the ticket being presented by a verified adult. Parents, rest assured – your children are in good hands!
WHAT WE TEACH AT RFBCKIDS
YOUR KIDS WILL LOVE IT
At RFBCKids, every child will engage in an age-appropriate lesson designed to help them discover God's love and His plan for their lives. Our teaching is interactive and tailored to different learning styles, ensuring that every child can connect with the message in a meaningful way. Our goal is to raise up world-changers who not only understand who Jesus is but also experience how His love transforms their lives. And of course, they’ll have a blast doing it!
CHILDREN'S MINISTRY SCHEDULE
CHILDREN'S SUNDAY SCHOOL
CHILDREN'S SUNDAY SCHOOL
RFBCKids Sunday School ministers to children from six weeks old through 5th grade, with a heart to encourage their spiritual growth. Through dynamic lessons, engaging videos, and hands-on activities, our dedicated teachers share the timeless truths of God’s Word in ways that are both age-appropriate and meaningful. Our mission is to see lives transformed, with children coming to know Christ as their Savior and growing in their faith.
Sunday School is a key time of discipleship, designed to nurture spiritual growth and deepen children’s understanding of God’s Word. If you need assistance finding your child's class, our friendly volunteers are always available to guide you to the right place.
NURSERY MINISTRY
SUNDAYS, 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM
The journey of becoming dedicated followers of Christ begins in the nursery. Our Nursery Ministry is far more than a childcare service; it is a foundational ministry where children are introduced to the truths of God’s Word through Bible stories, songs, and activities, all while being lovingly nurtured by a team of dedicated volunteers.
Our goal is to help children in this early stage of life discover the Bible as God’s Word, experience worship through song and prayer, and begin to develop a deep love for the Lord during this critical time of creativity and wonder.
Serving children from six weeks to 2 years old, the nursery provides a safe and nurturing environment where parents can focus on their own worship and spiritual growth, knowing their children are being lovingly cared for and receiving godly teaching.
CHILDREN'S CHURCH
SUNDAYS, 10:45 AM to 12:00 PM
During our main worship service, RFBCKids offers a Children's Church ministry for children ages 3 years old through 2nd grade. This ministry is dedicated to providing an age-appropriate, engaging worship experience where children can learn about God in a meaningful way. When you choose to send your child to Children's Church, you can be confident that they will hear truth from God's Word while being cared for in a safe, loving environment.
AWANA
WEDNESDAYS, 6:15 PM to 7:30 PM
Awana is a Bible-based, Christ-centered program designed to teach children the Gospel of Christ and equip them to serve Him. Its primary goal is to help boys and girls develop a personal relationship with Jesus through scripture memory, biblical principles, games, activities, songs, uniforms, badges, and awards.
It is a true privilege to serve God in this way and to guide children toward a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
The name Awana stands for Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed, based on the Bible verse 2 Timothy 2:15: "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
The Awana program at Rockwood First Baptist runs from August through May, meeting every Wednesday night from 6:00-7:30 pm. We create an exciting, high-energy environment where children can have fun while growing in their faith. Our meetings are divided into two key segments:
-Game Time: Age-appropriate and thrilling games that engage kids in active learning.
-Discipleship Time: Scripture memory, small group discussions, and a large group Bible lesson that teaches biblical truths.
Our program includes Cubbies for preschoolers, Sparks for Kindergarten through 2nd grade, and T&T for 3rd through 5th grade. The Awana program is open to all children and youth, regardless of background or experience.
