Why HBC Kids exists:

HBC Kids is a ministry of Horicon Baptist Church aimed at equipping families for growing disciples in the home. While we recognize the biblical precedent of the home being the primary discipleship unit, there is also a clear precedent concerning the active role of the church in raising up future generations of Christ-worshipers. Our desire is to unite these two realities – faith and home – so that the church proactively supports the growth of young Christ-followers and works toward discernible differences in the lives of both child and parent. Our great hope through this ministry is to join with parents and guardians to guide young people toward a knowledge and love for Christ and His gospel. 
2 Options for Parents on Sunday:

1. Children in Worship

At Horicon Baptist Church, we are eager to disciple our children and teach them from the earliest age to worship our Lord with the congregation. We welcome children of all ages into the service. 
We also have a cry room in the back of the church for parents to use.

To the parents of young children:

  • Relax! God put the wiggle in children. Don’t feel like you have to suppress it in God’s house.
  • Sit towards the front where it’s easier for your little ones to see and hear what’s going on. They tire of seeing the backs of heads.
  • Quietly explain the parts of the service.
  • Sing, pray, and voice responses. Children learn by copying your involvement!
  • If you have to leave the service with your child, feel free to do so, but come back! As Jesus said, “let the little children come to me.”
The presence of children is a gift to the Church and a reminder that our congregation is growing, so we welcome them with open arms.

2. Childcare

For parents who want their children to receive age-specific instruction, childcare is available for kids 7 and under. Kids 3 and younger can be dropped off in the nursery before the service and Kids 4-7 will be excused from service at the beginning of the service. 

We're a small church, with a big heart for children

We have the facilities, resources, and volunteers to provide childcare, but we don't have children consistently every Sunday. We are more than happy to accommodate families and we have volunteers who are on call every Sunday for when childcare is needed. Just make sure to tell the pastor or email us at HoriconBaptist@gmail.com if you need childcare. This is a service we are more than happy to provide.
