Third Grade Bible Sunday is September 29th. Church of the Servant celebrates our third graders each year by presenting them with their own Bible. These celebrations will take place in the 9:30 Celebration Center Service and 11:00 Modern Service in the Centrum, sharing this beautiful milestone with the congregation. Third graders and their families can choose which service in which they will be recognized. If you have questions, contact Jessica King at jking@servantokc.org or 728-4756.

SUNDAY MORNINGS
Our Sunday programs are fun and full of learning and growing! We meet at 9:30 for total group time and 11:00 for small groups. We provide a teaching summary for each class and encourage parents to utilize these tools to discuss their child’s lessons with them during the week. We believe that the family is the primary place of spiritual development and want to equip you with great tools!

What's Happening?
#ServantSundays... Each Sunday morning, kids gather from 9:30-10:30 for total group time and 10:45-12:00 for small group time (Sunday School). Each month, we explore a new theme and our Bible stories, lessons, games, and activities all center around the theme for that month. If kids come for the whole morning, the lesson and activities will center on the same topic, but the lesson/activities will not repeat themselves; however, if kids come for only total group or small group time, they will not miss the fun games and activities and the point of the lesson. Nursery care is available for ages two and under while preschool and elementary kids (through 5th grade) will experience the Bible lessons in meaningful ways.
Promotion Sunday... Preschool and elementary kids will promote on August 11th.
This Sunday, we will promote our kids to the next grade. We will celebrate this special event with Sundae Sunday! All kids will start the morning in their current classes but will then be taken to their new classes. This specifically will affect Kindergartners, who will move to the elementary side, and outgoing third graders, who will move next door to Suite 45. The ice cream party will occur between total group and small group time from 10:20-10:45. Join us for a fun and special celebration!
Acolyte Training and Consecration—August 25th
Calling all Fourth and Fifth Graders! You are being invited to join the Acolyte
program at Church of the Servant. What is an acolyte? An acolyte is
a follower of Jesus Christ who assists in the worship services in their
church. Helping in the worship service is one way of serving
Christ. You, along with the other persons who take part in the
church service are members of a team, and your teamwork will help all the
people worship God. It is considered an honor to be part of this
team. Training for the candle lighting will be held on Sunday, August 25th at
10:50am in the Celebration Center. On the same Sunday, we will have
acolyte consecration during the 9:30 am service in the Celebration
Center. Please contact Kourtney or Jessica to register for
training.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
IN SERVANT KIDS
Share Your Faith with Some Awesome Kids! Servant Kids, 3 years through 5th grade, would love for you to join them on Sunday mornings to share your faith and be a witness to them. We have several opportunities to do just that! Do you have 3-6 hours a month to make a difference in a child’s life – a difference that makes an impact for a lifetime? Servant Kids ministry is also searching for adults who are willing to substitute in our Sunday morning program when a leader needs to be gone. This doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, we need someone for an hour during either the 9:30 or 11:00 class times. Express your interest to be volunteer or to ask us questions by filling out this form. Contact Kourtney Aller here or 405-728-4715. The email or phone call is not a life commitment, but it can change a child’s life forever.
VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
We will be highlighting some of our very special and wonderful volunteers. This will help you get to know them better and also let you know who is leading our children on their spiritual journeys. If you see them around church, give them a hug or a high five for their hard work and dedication to kid’s ministries! Click here to view their profiles and to sign up as a volunteer!
CHECKPOINT SYSTEM
The safety of your children is of utmost importance to us. That is why we use the Checkpoint system to check your children “in and out” when they are in our care. First Time Guests should check in at the Welcome Counter in the children’s area (lower level) where staff members and volunteers will be available to assist new families with checking in their children.
Servant Kids Discipline Policy
When a child spends time in Servant Kids Ministries, it is the heartfelt desire of the staff that these are the best hours of a child’s week. Periodically children are disruptive and even disrespectful to their teachers and peers. The purpose of having a discipline policy is to insure, if a child’s behavior affects the opportunity for them and other children to have a positive learning experience during any Servant Kids Ministry program, that there is a plan in place that benefits everyone.

Servant Kids Safe & Secure Guidelines
Servant Kids Ministry strives in every way possible to ensure a safe and secure environment for each of the kids in our care. A policy is in place to be certain this happens. To view this policy, click here.
