SWAG Encounter is our Wednesday night ministry for kids, designed to help them know God’s Word, discover their gifts, and learn to use those gifts for His glory.
Each Wednesday, kids rotate with their age groups through games, music, Bible class, and snack time. Bible lessons are age-appropriate and help kids understand God’s Word and learn what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life.
In the fall, our music time focuses on preparing songs for our annual Christmas program, giving kids an opportunity to help share the story of Jesus with our church and community.
After Christmas, kids begin preparing for our summer competition, where they can choose from several areas based on their interests and abilities. Kids can memorize Scripture, study Bible facts for trivia-style competitions, participate in human videos that tell a story through music and drama, or develop their musical gifts through solos, duets, trios, choir, or instrumental entries.
Competition is fun, but winning isn’t our ultimate goal. We want kids to hide God’s Word in their hearts, discover the gifts God has given them, and learn to use those gifts to glorify Him.
SWAG stands for Saved With Amazing Grace, and everything we do is centered around helping kids encounter Jesus and grow as His followers.
