Kids & Families
Park Church Family Ministry exists to empower parents to be the primary disciplers of their children.
Park Kids In-Person
Our in-person ministry makes use of pre-registered classes for regular Park Church attenders in order to follow state and local guidelines for meeting safety. For visitors, we accept as many walk-up kids in each Park Kids classroom as we can. The current pre-registered cohorts run through the month of May, but you’ll be able to register for our next cohort soon. Contact us if you want a reminder when the next registration opens for Park Kids Highlands or Park Kids Downtown.

Park Kids at Home
Worshiping from home? Each week we create and curate resources for worship that we post here on this page. See more below! Use as many or as few of these resources as works for your family, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
Kids’ Sunday Worship: May 16
Ezekiel Gave Hope
God showed Ezekiel what He was going to do for His people. God’s people were sad and without hope, like dry bones, but God was going to give them hope, and He would bring them back to their land forever.
Resources
Worshiping at Home with Kids
First of all, we know that this idea kind of crazy, so here are some thoughts to help!
Engaging at Home with Families
Books
Kids
One of the best things you can do for your kid’s development is to read. We recommend having books all around your house so that you are more likely to read. Furthermore, having books that teach them truth is always a sweet win.
Parents
As you spend more time with your children, you may find it helpful to read books encouraging you as the primary disciplers of your kids.
Digital Resources
Find online resources, media resources, and apps to use with your family. We categorized resources into family (a resource your family can engage in together), parent (a resource directed primarily for parents), and kids (a resource that your kids can engage in with minimal supervision).
