  • Treasure Hunters

    Monday, June 9 - Friday, June 13

    Treasure Hunters is a discipleship program for our current 4th and 5th graders. It is a time for them to come and dive deeper into God’s Word and discover His Truth as well as explore different topics and skills that interest them. The program takes place at 9am-3pm each day.

    Contact Andrea Wageman at awageman@cccrochester.org with any questions.

  • Pizza in the Park

    Monday, June 16 | 5:30-7:00pm | Cascade Lake

    This free event is a great chance for both you and your kids to connect with other kidcity families! If you haven’t RSVP’d yet, please do so on the kidcity page so we can make sure to have enough pizza for everyone! A couple things to note:

    • We will serve pizza from 5:30-6:30PM or until we run out.

    • Bring chairs and/or blankets to sit on while you enjoy dinner.

  • Lemonade Wars

    Lemonade Wars

    This is a friendly competition between our K-5th graders to see which grade can raise the most money for Sombor, Nerng Chai, Thyda, and Socheat who are children in Cambodia that kidcity sponsors. With your support, they have access to clothes, shoes, food, books and education. Get creative on how you raise money! Whether it's a lemonade, cookie or craft stand - or doing extra chores - consider donating that money to help your grade win!

    The top two grades on September 7 will get to participate in silly-stringing Ms. Andrea! If we reach our $4,000 goal by September 7, we will also celebrate with an ice cream sundae party! You can bring money in any weekend and put it in the box with your grade on it.

For Parents

  • Your child's safety is very important to us. Every weekend, your child is assigned a random three-digit alpha-numeric code on their name tag and your security receipt that you will use to pick-up your child from kidcity. Should we need you during the service, we will send you a quick text message!

    Each weekend, your kids are joined by amazing volunteers that love God and want to hang out with your kiddos. Each volunteer has met with a staff member, gone through training, and is screened with a background check.

  • To check in, come to the kidcity desk by Door 3 where a smiling face will welcome you and get your kids checked in.

  • Infants and crawlers will enjoy baby swings, exersaucers, play mats, and age appropriate toys that will make their time fun and engaging! Devoted team members care for your child and begin instilling the concepts of trust. We have volunteers who will lovingly care for your child.


    "Jesus loves you and knows you by name" is conveyed through words and actions. 

    If you have questions about Early Childhood, contact Sam.

  • Kids participate in a Bible Story, worship songs, coloring and/or craft, and get their wiggles out in the gym as they play on slides and climbing toys. Our curriculum, First Look, is based on one of three simple, but powerful, truths. The entire curriculum is constructed to meet your preschoolers where they are cognitively, spiritually, physically, emotionally and socially. Through age appropriate activities, preschoolers are building their spiritual foundation so that by the time they graduate to Kindergarten they know these three basic truths.

    -God Made Me

    -God Loves Me

    -Jesus Wants To Be My Friend Forever

    If you have questions about Early Childhood, contact Sam.

  • K - 3rd Weekend Series

    Kindergarten-3rd graders worship with kid-friendly songs, engage in an interactive Bible story, practice spending time with God during quiet reflection, and then wrap up their time by reviewing the story and building relationships in their small group. Our Gospel-centered curriculum is geared towards their age group as kids learn about who God is, what it means to be a part of God’s story, and how to know, love, and serve Christ.

    If you have questions about Elementary Ministry, contact Whitney.

  • Our 4th and 5th graders meet in the Warehouse (Student Center) located at the back of the gym. They spend time hanging out playing carpet ball, foosball, and other fun games, and then experience worship, a large group lesson, and small group time. We want kids to build relationships with God and with friends.  This program is geared towards their age group as students learn how to grow their faith, be more confident, and become disciples of Jesus.  Some of the topics we’ll cover this year include friendships, worship, attributes of God, and more!
