Introduction
Hello and welcome to the 3-D Kidzone the children's ministry at First Christian Church of Jacksonville.
Sometimes we think that if we have a child care program then the children are taken care of. Here at F.C.C. we believe that your children are valuable to us. We believe that they need to grow in their faith just as much as you do as a parent. We believe that children matter to God and we have a responsibility to help them develop a deep relationship with the Lord. The 3-D Kidzone children's ministry is committed to teaching and loving your children. We believe that your children are the next generation into teaching others about Jesus Christ.
In the 3-D Kidzone, children will worship God, collect offering , learn the truths from the Bible, and begin to understand that there is a God that loves them! All classrooms have materials for are age appropriate teaching and activities that will help them grow in the Lord. The children's ministry is a place where kids can have a safe and loving place to go to grow in their relationship with God.
Every volunteer that works with our children undergo a background check and have gone through training to be able to minister to the children.
We encourage all parents to look at the opportunities we provide throughout the webpage.
I believe the children have an opportunity to grow into a loving relationship with Jesus Christ.
May God bless you and your family here at F.C.C.,
Ashleigh Smith
