CHILDREN/YOUTH

I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

[3 John 1:4]

Here at Pelican Bay Church, we are passionate about children embracing and learning to live out the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We teach the supremacy of God in all things, so that our kids will know Jesus as the only one who saves and who satisfies the desires of the heart. We don’t believe “having something for kids” is enough. We want our children to become life-long followers of Jesus. The process of making disciples of Jesus is intentional, multi-faceted and requires a partnership with parents and families.

We welcome you and your children and are eager to support you on your faith journey! Pelican Bay Church has a team of experienced and caring children’s ministry leaders and helpers who both model and teach what following Jesus means and looks like.  All lessons and group times are designed to lay a solid biblical foundation of truth for life. Scripture memory, prayer and community life are built into our Sunday morning program and other activities.

Good News Club - Child Evangelism Fellowship

Now, more than ever, children need the Gospel
Children today face an increasingly dangerous and hopeless world. Unchurched families in every country—and even locally, in your own community—have no legacy of faith to pass on to their children. They do not know the reason for our hope.
A Good News Club® meets kids right where they are
In schools* (yes, schools!), community centers, churches, teachers who are screened, trained, and equipped lead action-packed Good News Clubs every week, delivering the timeless truths of the Bible in exciting, engaging ways. Children learn the Gospel, and many come to know Jesus as their Savior.
Find a Good News Club® near you!
Currently there are four active clubs in Crescent City - Mary Peacock ES, Pine Gove ES, Joe Hamilton ES, and Redwood ES.
Interested in becoming a Good News Club® Volunteer?
Good News Clubs only happen because of people like you! You can help organize and lead a club at your church or in your school. You can support our work training and equipping teachers with your donations. And most importantly, you can pray for this ministry!

Tiny Theologians

We exist to help kids grow in knowing and loving God through his Word through Gospel-centered and theologically-rich discipleship tools for children ages 2 to 12.
Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.”
[Luke 18:15-17]
