Our Curriculum

Growing in God’s Word from Ligonier Ministries is a Christ-centered, Bible focused curriculum that is designed to teach children--from toddlers through elementary ages--to know who God is and what He has done in Jesus Christ. This resource is intentionally crafted to help children grasp the holiness of God, the sinfulness of man, and the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ—truths at the very heart of the gospel. Rather than offering moral lessons or entertainment-driven teaching, it leads children to see their need for a Savior and invites them to trust in Jesus alone for salvation.

Every Sunday, the curriculum walks children through the unfolding story of redemption, showing them how every part of Scripture points to Christ. They will hear clearly what the gospel is, why repentance and faith matter, and how obedience to Jesus shapes every part of life.

Midweek New City Catechism

We firmly believe in the validity of Scripture and the importance of it in our daily lives starting from a young age. The New City Catechism for Kids is a modern-day resource aimed at teaching the core doctrines of the Christian faith to children grades K-5. We encourage you to join us on Wednesdays throughout the school year to begin to train up children in godliness.

Safety

The safety of your kids is of the utmost importance to us at River Valley, and to everyone on the River Valley Children's Ministry Team. In order to maintain a safe and secure environment in our Children's Ministry—for your kids and everyone else’s—it’s important that we all work together to follow the proper Check-In and Check-Out procedures that are in place.

Every child’s ID sticker is matched to a parent-identification number, every volunteer is screened with an interview and background check, and every hallway is monitored by security personnel.
