Our Children’s Ministry partners with parents and caregivers to disciple K-6th graders
to live as a worshiper, love as a community, and lead as a servant.
WLBC Children’s Ministry volunteers are highly trained to create an atmosphere where families can confidently leave their children while they are in Community Groups. Every leader is screened with a background check and has gone through training. Also, our security team is constantly monitoring the building in person and by camera.

Jesus, What a Savior!
A Study for Children
on Redemption
Our children (like us) are helpless sinners, deserving of God’s eternal wrath. Children need to hear this truth so that they, like us, can turn to the perfect and only remedy—the free gift of salvation through Jesus the Savior! This curriculum presents the material in a way that proclaims the centrality of the greatness and worth of God.
Each lesson in Jesus, What a Savior! is designed to present the material, including Bible stories, in a way that proclaims the centrality of the greatness and worth of God. This chronological study on redemption focuses on God’s revelation of His Son, Jesus, as the one and only hope for desperate sinners—the good news of the gospel!

In the Beginning… Jesus
A Chronological Study
for Children of Redemptive History
The Bible is one complete true story that progressively reveals God’s redemptive plan, which comes to complete fulfillment in the Person and work of Jesus Christ. In the Beginning…Jesus begins with a historical mystery—Jesus’ death on the cross—and asks the questions: “What really happened here?” “Why did Jesus die?” and “Who did it?”.
To find the answers to these questions, the study goes to the beginning of the Bible narrative in Genesis and then moves chronologically through the Old Testament text as students search for clues that foreshadow the coming of Jesus and His redemptive work on the cross. Special emphasis is given to showing that the Bible is God’s story from beginning to end and that Jesus is the key to understanding the story.
