As our world looks a little different right now, our ministry for our kids takes on an even greater importance to give our kids hope, faith and a purpose, knowing that no matter what, THEY are a BLESSING.

The interactive Zoom calls with Ms. Lisa give our children time to interact with each other and explore their faith through games, activities, and Bible adventures. For kids ages 4 through 5th grade (or younger, if accompanied by a parent). Bring your Bible or open your Bible app to learn alongside our congregation with themes taken from the weekly worship series. Sign up for the Vista Kids Happenings newsletter for the call details.

Vista Kids now have their own Spotify playlist! Follow the playlist on Spotify and listen to your favorite worship songs while at home, in the car, or doing your favorite activities outdoors.

If your child needs a moment to talk to someone during these challenging times, Ms. Lisa is here to listen and hold sacred space. Using holy listening stones, time to pray and a blessing can often give children time to express themselves and connect with God. Email Lisa, [email protected], to set up a Zoom call for a five-minute holy listening time if your child is interested.

Each month our children are invited to offer their gifts through offering during small groups to go toward opportunities to bless both locally and globally. Even though the gifts (and those gifting) are small, together they can make a huge difference!

For more information, contact Lisa Dominy, [email protected]mc.org, or check out the many ways your family can serve through giving.
