The Children and Family Team encompasses the youth up through 5th grade and family ministries.  They are very active and keep adding programs for those age groups.  Below is listed some of the activities they oversee.

Sunday School

Hopeful's Sunday School classes meet from 9:50-10:50am.

The classes include a weekly bible lesson, bible verse memorization, arts and crafts and special events such as Rally Day, Operation Christmas Child and World Hunger Relief day.

*Parents should pick up their children (grades pre-k through 2nd) in their classroom.

We are always looking for teachers, substitutes and room parents.  If you are interested in becoming a part of our Sunday School program please conact Suzanne Strawn.

Kids of the Kingdom

Kids of the Kingdom is open to all children in grades 3-5.  The "Kids" meet once a month for a variety of fun activities, bible lessons and service projects.  The 2007-2008 year will include: teaming up with a prayer partner, the teddy bear mission project and our first lock-in, decorating our room and lots of fun and fellowship.

Childrens Church

We offer children's church during the 11am service.  Children ages 3 through 3rd grade are invited to hear a children's lesson during the sermon.  The children leave the service with the teacher for the lesson and then return after the Pastors' sermon.  Children's Church runs during the Sunday School Year.

Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS)

Are you looking for a place to call home?  If so, than join us for a MOPS meeting!

The MOPS group meets the 2nd Thursday of every month from 6:15-8:30pm.   The MOPS meetings include an evening filled with speakers, creative activities, discussion groups, dinner and more!  MOPS International is a Christian based moms group that offers fellowship, guidance, fun and friendship to moms who are raising children ages 0-6 years old. 

The MOPS group at Hopeful provides FREE childcare to all moms who are registered with our group.  The registration fee for the year is $55 if paid in full by the October meeting.  The cost is $65 as of October 13th. Scholarships are available.

To learn more about our group please contact Suzanne Strawn or call the office at 525-6171.  To find out more about MOPS International please visit them at www.MOPS.org.

The MOPS theme for this year is "The Home Factor".

Children of Christ

Children of Christ is our newest youth group and it was created especially for youth who are currently in grades Kindergarten through grade 2.

The group began meeting in January 2008 for a variety of activities including fellowship events, lock-ins, outreach projects and fundraising events.  Some of our events will be combined with Kids of the Kingdom as family outings, but other events will be just for their age group.  Their events will often coordinate with the times of the Kids of the Kingdom due to the number of families with children in both age groups.  We encourage all children to be a part of our youth group. Parent volunteers will supervise and run the events.
