For 9 weeks throughout the summer, you’ll get to help with fun games & activities, interact with the kids, and help make it an awesome environment every week!

Who doesn't love Legos? We will have thousands of them, and tons of silly Lego games that we are sure you'll love. But for our serious Lego builders, you'll be able to enter our Lego contest where you'll compete for the title of Master Builder. Parents - before or after each service you can do a lego building competition with your child and enter it into our contest. Pictures will be posted on social media that week for people to vote on a winner!

BOTTOM LINE: Changing my view of God changes everything.
Romans 8:14 NLT
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.
1. Accept my role as the child.
Romans 8:15 NLT
15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”
2. Embrace that I am wanted, changed, and safe for who I am, not who I was.
Psalms 68:5-6 NLT
5 Father to the fatherless, defender of widows—this is God, whose dwelling is holy. 6 God places the lonely in families;he sets the prisoners free and gives them joy.But he makes the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.
Romans 8:15 NLT
15 So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.”
3. Now I have the perfect dad.
Romans 8:16 NLT
16 For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children.
Romans 8:14 NLT
14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.
