Here at Walnut Ridge children are a vital part of our church family. Our desire is to partner with families to help children grow in a relationship with God and live a life pleasing to Him. Our children's ministry is called WRKIDZ and, more specifically, is broken into 2 groups. Grades K-3 are known are a part of "The Theater " and grades 4-6 are in "The Drive-In ". We strive to provide an atmosphere that is both creative and relevant so that kids feel comfortable coming and learning about God.
"So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." -1 Corinthians 10:31 (NIV)
We pray that as we come alongside parents in teaching their children, that they may learn that we should glorify God with all that we do. Whether it's at school with friends, at a sports game, or at home with a sibling, kids should always live a life that is pleasing to God.

Children will learn about God's Word and build strong relationships during our Bible Fellowship time. Kids are placed in a small group with friends their same age and grade. Quality teachers will lead students to explore issues relevant to today's kids through Bible study, video, music, group activities and personal application.

Kidz Worship
Sundays at 10:50am
Kidz Worship is an awesome time for kids in grades K-3 to come and experience worship like they never have before! With biblical teaching that reinforces the lesson they learned in Bible Fellowship, kids get to interact and participate throughout the whole service! There are also opportunities for kids to serve and lead in different areas of this service! It’s a place where kids can come and learn to worship God freely with a “child-like faith”!
• Sundays at 10:50am: Grades K-3 meet in the "Theater"
