Kids church

Our Kid's small group spaces are structured to accommodate kids of all age ranges. If you are new and are planning on visiting the River, all we require is a registration form completed for each family with children who would like to take part in Kids Church.

It's super easy and you can generally fit all your children on one form! You can click this link to Register in advance. Otherwise, forms are always available on-site.

We look forward to seeing you!

Sunday School!

1/8/2021

Good evening parents!

We are so happy to announce that Sunday School will be starting up again in February. Although it is going to look and feel different, we feel so blessed that God keeps opening doors for us in this strange time.

Sunday school is moving to an online platform for the foreseeable future. There will still be 2 classes, 3-5 year olds and 6 to 10 year olds.
Classes will be comprised of 1 to 2 worship songs, a 10 minute message, pre recorded by our Children's Ministry Teachers, and either a craft or an activity.

Parents, what we need from you is to register your children! Children who are registered will receive a monthly drop off from the Church. This will include all activities or supplies that may be needed for the classes.

To register please email riverkids@sasktel.net and request a form.

All lessons will be posted here on Sunday mornings by 9am and will remain available for viewing any time.

Parents of Youth please also reach out and get those kids registered!

Thanks!
Rebecca Stott

Groups Starting in 2021

1/3/2021

Hey River Families!

We are so very excited with a new direction God is taking us in with Youth! For the first time we are starting a Bible Book Study for ages 11 to 18. This will be held over zoom to start. Now we need your help!

We need your input for days and times that work for you and your families. There are a few options:

Sunday afternoons from 1pm to 3pm
Sunday evenings from 6pm to 8pm
Monday evenings from 6pm to 8pm

Please let us know what works best via email, riverkids@sasktel.net. Once we compile that information we will let you guys know what day we will be holding this.

One more thing we need your help with is registering your Youth! We need youth registered by January 22, 2021 so that we may order the correct amount of books! If interested please email riverkids@sasktel.net and request a registration form to fill out.

We look forward to where God is going to take us on this journey and can't wait to get started!

Also parents please be on the lookout for another announcement coming this week regarding Sunday School for children 3 to 10 years old.
