Kingdom Heroes
Children’s Ministry
Think of it like this: Sunday is their opportunity to experience what adults get to experience through TakeOut (Bible Study), Quads, Teach/Equip Tables, or Mens/Womens Nights. Sundays is where our kids get to be a part of community and experience the heart of Jesus through friendship. Whether in MINIs or Upper/Middle/Lower class, our primary goal is to build connection and make space for kids to have the opportunity to build life-long friendships.
Kingdom Heroes is a regular space of connection for our kids 10MO-5th grade during service to connect. Please see below for our current rhythms by class.
Winter — please click the button below for information concerning our outdoor apparel suggestions for when classes go outside as well as our sick policy.
classes
mothers & Infant room
Moms, this is for you! If you have other little ones that aren’t yet 10months, we invite you to bring them with you to this room while you feed, change diapers, or hang out during service. We will have a small bin of toys for the little ones to play with if you desire.
MINIs (10 Months - 4 YO)
We are thankful to be able to offer two options for our MINIs crew.
minis nursery (10-30mo)
minis prek (2.5-4yo)
Class will occur indoors every Sunday during service comprised of play&connect time as well as a simple, consistent Bible verse and power phrase.
lower (preK5- 1st Grade), Middle (2nd & 3rd Grade) & upper (4th & 5th Grade)
We’ve opted for a two-fold approach: content & connection. The first three weeks of each month will be Lesson Sundays (content); while the fourth week will be a Field Day Sunday (activation & connection). When fifth Sundays occur, children will remain with their parents for family service (there will not be Lower/Middle/Upper class that day). Weather permitting, we will have our Lower, Middle, and Upper classes outdoors where we will engage in a short lesson and activation/discussion period. In the event of inclement weather, we will move indoors.
Our hope is to be able to offer class each week, however, in the process of rebuilding we still lack the number of volunteers needed. As of Fall Launch we are offering class 1st and 2nd and 4th Sundays. We value time to worship together as a family so for 3rd Sundays, we have Family Worship & Communion. To stay up to date, we will be utilizing our children’s ministry text group, please text KHFAMILY to 703-972-6688 to queue in.
registration & check-in/check-out
Class Registration
Our children’s ministry uses the SmartCheckin app for checking in and out of class each Sunday. Please download the app and follow the prompts to set your account. We recommend doing this before Sunday so that Sunday morning before you come to church, you can pre-register and save a slot for your child’s class.
Check-in & Check-Out
Check-in window is 10:15-10:30A & Check-out will be promptly following the end of service, in the same location as check-in. For all classes, check-in and check-out with our KH Host is required before you pick-up your child(ren). Please go to our check-in spot listed below before pick-up.

For us, collaboration is key. We still have a need for volunteers to make class available every week. Would you prayerfully consider joining us in this season as we build a space of connection for our children? Jesus love these kids!
