Preschool and Children’s Ministries
We strive to connect kids to God by cultivating a heart-transforming personal faith in Jesus Christ through a safe, loving, and fun environment with biblically sound teaching and relational discipleship. We desire to partner with parents to ensure that they are doing their God-ordained job of discipling their children in the home. We offer a variety of activities throughout the year for children and their families. We’d love to have you join us! Take a look at our ministry areas for birth through 5th grade.

CALLING ALL 3rd, 4th, & 5th GRADERS! Join us on MONDAY, March 2nd at 4pm OVERNIGHT through TUESDAY, March 3rd at 3pm for REACH Jr! REACH Jr. is an exciting event filled with fun, games, music, videos, food, and small group Bible Study for 3rd-5th graders. It is hosted here at Providence Baptist Church and is led by SHINE Ministry leaders and some of our IMPACT Students.
***** We’re trying something a little different this year by having this event midweek on a day that Cabarrus County Schools are not in session. We know this does not work for every child, and for that we apologize, but this gives us an opportunity to do a project with our Senior Care Tuesdays members.
The theme for this year’s event is ALL THE THINGS. The Bible has a lot to say about how we handle the wealth and responsibilities that God has given us. You might think, “I’m just a kid. I don’t have any responsibilities or wealth.” Think again. We all have different abilities, talents, advantages, resources, and skills. And God cares about what we do with them. Material things are not as important to God as what is eternal. But God does care about how we handle the resources, abilities, and opportunities that He blesses us with. We will explore four of Jesus’ teachings that talk about how we are to handle what we have been given.
