KIDZ HARVEST Mission & Vision

There is a spiritual seed inside every child. Our mission here at LAEFC is to come alongside parents to provide the richest, most nutritious, energetic, and impacting “soil” to surround that seed so when the Holy Spirit draws that child to God, they accept Jesus Christ and a “plant begins to grow.” Our desire is for that plant to be able to grow strong foundational roots for the life God has ahead of them.


While parents are the primary “farmers” for their children, Kidz Harvest seeks to provide the tools that parents need to foster spiritual life in their children. The ministry of Kidz Harvest is a partnership with parents, not a childcare service. We desire to help parents develop and nurture young hearts for Jesus. 


Our two pillar verses are Deuteronomy 6:6-9 (charge to parents) and Colossians 2:7 (charge to children). On these verses we base all that we do within KIDZ HARVEST.


Our Goals:

To provide safe, age-appropriate programs that will help our kids to grow in their understanding of who God is and how to have a relationship with Him.

To teach songs and Bible lessons that will be relevant to today's kids.

To come alongside families as they nurture and encourage the spiritual development of their children.

To help children learn responsibility, become involved in service, and begin to reach their peers for Jesus Christ.

What to expect: 

SAFETY & CHECK IN


Your child’s safety is a core value of Kidz Harvest! Security cameras and restricted access to classroom areas help us protect the children. All adult Kidz Harvest volunteers and staff have obtained national security clearances.


At LAEFC, we employ a state-of-the-art security system. Children are checked-in at any of our computer kiosks located in the Worship Center lobby and receive printed name tags. Parents receive security receipts with the matching number and the child will be released only to the adult who has the matching security tag.


As a guest, you will be welcomed by a member of the Kidz Harvest team at the computer kiosks in the Worship Center lobby. You and your child will receive a name tag for you to fill in the last four digits of your phone number. This will serve as both their security tag and the number used to page you in the worship center if a need arises.

CUBBIES program is aimed at the two years before Kindergarten (3's & 4's) and is a lively experience where fun and learning go hand in hand. Like Puggles, the focus is on respect, but Cubbies begin memorizing Bible verses and earning awards. (must be 3 by September 1st).


SPARKS Club (K5 - Grade 2) combines age-appropriate learning with fun to create an atmosphere of irresistible excitement. Their focus is on developing a wisdom grounded in a Biblical worldview.


TRUTH & TRAINING (T&T) seeks to teach 3rd through 5th graders the truth of God's Word, focusing on His grace, as they begin to cultivate life long Bible study habits. 


Sunday Morning:

Nursery

We provide a safe, pleasant, and well-staffed nurseries for children from birth to three years old. Nursery is available during each scheduled service (9 AM, 10:45 AM), and allow parents to worship, study, and serve. During this time, parents can be assured that their children are receiving quality care and being nurtured spiritually. Through Play-n-Worship, babies and toddlers discover the love of Jesus through intentional play, joy-filled worship videos, and interactive stories.

Sunday Morning: 

PRE-K, Kindergarten, & Elementary Classes


We are currently using the Gospel Project and their three-year curriculum to engage our children with relevant and exciting Bible lessons that encourage them to walk with Jesus, obey their parents, and be kind to their friends.


KIDZ PRE-K & Kindergarten Classes - 9:00 & 10:45 a.m.

The class begins with kids in PRE-K and Kindergarten enjoying engaging, enthusiastic, kid-led praise and worship in their rooms. Through Bible stories, hands-on activities, crafts, and snacks the children learn Bible based lessons that will help them develop strong spiritual roots in their lives.


KIDZ Elementary Class - 9:00

After worshiping with their families in our main services, we dismiss our elementary classes back to their rooms for their God-Centered lessons where through conversation, activity, games, and projects they learn valuable Bible lessons that will help them develop strong spiritual roots in their lives.


KIDZ Elementary Class - 10:45

Children will worship together and then split classes back to their rooms for their God-Centered lessons where through conversation, activity, games, and projects they learn valuable Bible lessons that will help them develop strong spiritual roots in their lives.

Volunteers are the KEY to SUCCESS

In Kidz Harvest, we are committed to coming alongside parents to nurture and influence their child’s heart for God. Additionally, we encourage parents to partner with us in “tilling the soil” at LAEFC. Discipleship is one of the ways we contribute to the growth of our children. What better way to build disciples than through modeling for your children what service to God looks like?


We invite every parent to find a place to volunteer. Anyone who is interested in having a blast being the hands and feet of Jesus to kids should come join us in Kidz Harvest. Talk to the Kidz Harvest Staff for more information on how you can be a member of the team!
