At Oakhill Baptist Church we place a huge emphasis on families. Raising children from birth to adulthood is not easy, but we believe the church is uniquely positioned to partner with parents in this endeavor. We want to encourage, challenge, and support parents as they seek to disciple their children and raise them to stand on biblical truth. Every emphasis, lesson, program, and event is in service of this mission. The Family Ministry encompasses our Kids Ministry (birth-5thgrade) and our Student Ministry (6th-12th grade). We offer many regular programs and special events throughout the year, but more than that we want to build a community of families that can support each other through each stage of life. Oakhill Baptist Church is a place for families!
The Kid's Ministry at Oakhill is an exciting place. We offer many activities and programs for children that will help them grow in their faith. Below you can see a list of regular programs that we offer. In addition to these weekly programs there are many different events that are offered throughout the year for your child to take part in. As you can see, children's ministry is important at Oakhill Baptist Church. We look forward to ministering to you and your child.
Kids Worship & Life Groups are where children PreK to 5th grade learn dynamic Bible lessons from caring teachers and also experience intentional age appropriate worship specifically designed for kids. Register your child at the Kids Check-in Desk located at the top of the main stairwell at entrance B. Childcare is is also available for children 6 weeks to 3 years.
AWANA stands for Approved Workman Are Not Ashamed (2 Timothy 2:15). AWANA is a Bible club for children 3 years (two years from Kindergarten) to 6th grade. It is a fun and exciting program that is centered on the Gospel, Bible learning, and scripture memory. AWANA helps churches and parents work together to develop spiritually strong children and youth who faithfully follow Jesus Christ. Our program offers a proven approach for evangelizing and discipling kids in the church and community. Club Information
Sunday Morning Bible Study is for all students in 6th – 12th grade. Our goal during this time is to worship God and study the Bible together as a group. We look to God's Word to see how all of scripture points to Jesus Christ and His work on the cross. Then we apply what the Bible says to our lives today.
Student Gathering is a time for students grades 6th-12th to gather, fellowship together, and focus on applying the gospel to their lives. This time will include worship through music and worship through a message from God's Word. We also like to play games and watch funny videos, but our focus will always be brought back to Christ.
This is a time where believers and unbelievers alike can see who Christ is, what He has done, and how that impacts their lives today. Our goal is for students to have a good time of fellowship, be immersed in the gospel, and then go out and share the gospel with their friends and family. This is a great time for Christians to hear the gospel applied to their lives and for non-Christians to hear about Christ and see what it looks like to follow Him. Afterwards we have a great time playing during gym/free time.
Life Groups are small groups of students and adult leaders who discuss their walk with God in their everyday lives. The goal is to take scripture and apply it to the lives of students through discussion to help them grow in their faith in Christ. Each night will include fellowship time and gender/grade-separated small group time with leaders who will facilitate Bible-based discussions.
