We believe that our church exists to connect people with God and people with people.
All of our various ministries have been created to help you accomplish both.
Preschool (Birth-Age 4)
In our Kidz Nursery, children begin their journey toward lifelong learning and leadership in a clean, safe, and nurturing environment. They are constantly moving, touching, and investigating. So in this age group, we use developmental toys, age appropriate Bible Lessons, music, and influential adult volunteers to facilitate learning through experiences, imitation, and repetition. As they move from the nursery to preschool, we implement various curriculums to help kids learn while having fun! We use animated videos, interactive activities, games, crafts, skits, and songs to help the children learn the Bible Lessons and apply these lessons to their lives. We build all of our lessons around the following Big 3 Ideas:
1) Wow, God is amazing!
2) God loves me!
3) God has a special plan for our lives!
Preschool Ministries is available during the 9:45 and 11AM Sunday worship experiences. Please call 912-826-5536 for more information or email Lori Sowers, our Director of Kidz Ministries: Lori.Sowers@fbcrincon.com.
Weekday Ministries is a ministries and educational preschool program of FBC Rincon. It's goal is to minister to families and assist in the development of their children through our programs. To learn more, contact Sigrid Schuld at Weekday Ministries at (912) 826-2213.
Kidz (K5-5th Grade)
Our Kidz Ministries utilizes many different teaching methods including videos, object lessons, small group lessons, music, dance, and more! All of this is done using something we learned from our annual VBS. Each Sunday, our kids get an experience in missions, music/worship, small group Bible teaching, games and recreation, large group worship and activities, and other exciting and engaging experiences. We want to teach our kids the principles and values that will help them become all God has designed them to be.
On Sunday nights, our Kidz Ministries offer:
- American Heritage Girls - a Christ-centered program that helps girls acquire skills that will assist them in all areas of life. These skills may include how to use a computer, sew on a button, protect themselves, learn about their ancestors, or what it takes to be an astronaut. Contact Morgan Davis for additional information at (334) 343-1428.
Kidz Ministries is available during our 9:45AM and 11:00AM Sunday worship experiences. Please call 912-826-5536 for more information or email Lori Sowers our Director of Kidz Ministries: Lori.Sowers@fbcrincon.com.
Students (6th-12th Grade)
We are excited about our Student Ministry for all students in 6th-12th grade. We exist to help students discover the plans and purposes God has for their lives in an environment specifically designed for them. Every Sunday morning/evening, students will experience creativity, biblical teaching, competitions and games, and the opportunity to build authentic and healthy relationships with one another and those who lead them. Each week, our 6th-12th grade students connect with God and others through:
- STUDENTSERVE - Sunday mornings where our senior high students serve in various ways on our church campus. You will see them teaching kids, preparing coffee, leading in worship, using their technical abilities, and many more roles helping minister to all who come to our church campus on Sunday mornings.
