Everyday volunteers served so that Everyday Kidz could, well, serve. And return. Forehand and backhand.
Our exceptional Everyday church volunteers and partners from Southeast Christian Church provided a free Tennis Clinic for neighborhood kids last Friday. After a few hours of fun exercises and encouragement, instructors transformed 32 kids from I’ll-give-Tennis-a-shot into confident players. Kids who had never held a racquet before were returning volleys!
This was our first free Tennis Clinic for our neighbors in Inwood, but it won’t be our last.

We’re starting our second Home Group! We’ve developed strong relationships and welcomed enough new friends that it’s time: several Everyday people are going to start a new group this coming Sunday.
Over the next few weeks, both groups will be sort of “rebooting,” so you couldn’t ask for a better time to join in, or to bring someone along. To get connected, Contact Us.
The “Original” meets Sundays at 2p.m.
Dicussion Leader: Nathan
Hosts: Larry and Wendy
The “Newbie” meets Sundays at 12p.m.
Hosts: Lindsay and Chris
Discussion Leader: Matt

Everyone is a valued member of our family, whether they are 50 years old or 50 days old. We want even our youngest to know how deeply Jesus loves them. So we provide fun, creative learning experiences designed to introduce kids to Jesus and his love for them. We offer these activities during Teaching and Home Group gatherings.
Beyond learning, Everyday kids build lasting relationships. We encourage kids to act like kids, to have fun, and to make friends with peers. It is also important for children to interact with people from other generations (it’s important for adults too!). So we involve kids whenever we can. For example, during Home Group, everyone shares a meal together like a family. While adult and children discussions are normally separate, we usually wrestle with the same passage of Scripture, and we often ask kids to share what they’ve learned with the adults. That usually comes in the form of a finger-puppet performance, a song they’ve written together, or some kind of art they’ve created!
Imagine your kids really wanting to come to church. We’re experiencing that. Kids leave our meetings saying, “Can I come back again next week?”
