CHECK IN

When you arrive each night, please visit the Registration area first. On Monday night, your child should come to Adventure Week WEARING their name-tag AND also check in at Registration. If you did not receive a Registration Packet ahead of time, visit the Registration booth located on the patio near Santa Gertrudes. On the following nights when you arrive, your child will check in and pick up their name tag at their team table in the Registration area.

Parents and each child in the family are given a family number to be used for check out. This number is on each child’s name tag. Parents are given a wristband with your family number written on it. Wear it on your wrist all week or put it on your key chain. If someone else is picking up your child, please give them your wristband or make arrangements at Registration when you check in.

CHECK OUT

K-6th Check Out: K-6th grade children should be picked up at 8:15pm at the front doors of the West Sanctuary. Please wait in the line that goes through the foyer, tell the volunteer your family’s last name and your kids will be called to you. Show your wristband and turn in name-tags to our staff as you exit. Please pick up your child promptly, as our voluteers need to leave and get ready for the next night of fun!

Preschool Check Out: Please pick up your preschooler at 8pm. Go to the playground and a volunteer will direct you to your child’s team. Pick your child up from this spot every night. Show your wristband, and turn in your child’s name-tag to one of our staff at the gate. Please note: Preschool check out is at 7:45pm on Friday.

What We Are Learning

K-6th CURRICULUM

This year, the kids will learn about the gospel through the life of Philip and the Ethiopian. They will find out what it means to respond to God’s call to follow Christ and be “in hot pursuit of the Truth.”

Theme Verse: Colossians 1:27

“…God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

PRESCHOOL

The preschool children will learn to follow Jesus with their whole heart!

Theme Verse: Colossians 1:27

“…God has chosen to make known…the glorious riches of this mystery,
which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

 

Preschool Gospel Poem

God is in charge. My sin is large. Jesus died for you and me. So repent and believe.

Coins for Missions

Every year we partner with a missionary that our church supports to pray for their ministry and collect money for a specific need they have. Each night we collect a different type of coin. Encourage your child to do extra chores around the house this week to earn coins for this special project!

The kids learn more about our missionary family and this year’s Coins for Missions project at Adventure Week.
