Kids Community at Hillside meets on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:00 pm for children ages 3 years – 5th grade throughout the school year. Our 2019-2020 schedule will begin on Wednesday, September 4, 2019. Any updates or cancellations will be posted on our Website Calendar page.
Hillside is currently using the Awana programming for Preschoolers (ages 3 – 5) known as Cubbies, and early Elementary children (Kindergarten – 2nd grade) known as Sparks. Pathfinders, our upper Elementary children's program (3rd – 5th grades) also stresses the importance of Biblical knowledge and understanding.
Since 1950, Awana has helped churches and parents worldwide raise children and youth to know, love and serve Christ. Awana offers Biblical teaching, basics for a relationship with God, a foundation for a biblical worldview, fun physical activities, games and competition. This also allows for consistent and positive training on how to thrive in group settings. There is also Bible memorization, positive friendships and support for parents as they raise their children. Also for all ages there are awards and recognition for their accomplishments. Each age group has a personal leader-to-clubber ratio that offers personal interaction, encouragement and a listening ear.
Hillside strives to provide a safe environment for kids to grow in their understanding of Scripture, while enjoying an active evening of fun with their peers! Questions? Feel free to visit with your child's program director, or contact the church office.

- Cubbies are an important part of Kids Community. Preschoolers in the Cubbies program should be potty trained and emotionally ready for an independent, structured setting.
- Sparks is designed for excitement with Sparky, the fun firefly encouraging Sparkies to go through their handbook and also listen with their parents to a helpful audio CD that has all kinds of exciting stories, music and readings!
- Pathfinders challenges children to hide God’s Word in their hearts as they learn how to study and reflect on God’s Word and deepen their understanding of who God is, who Jesus is, and who they are in Christ!
