ISLAND KIDS
Sundays | 8:30, 10:00 + 11:30 AM

Island Kids 2s & 3s and 4s & 5s:

This Sunday, we’re kicking off a celebration because JESUS IS ALIVE! All month long, the little ones will be learning that Jesus loves us so much that He wants to be our friend forever! And that is definitely something to celebrate!

Our April memory verse is:  “I have called you friends.” John 15:15 (NIV)

Island Kids 1st – 5th Grade:

Jesus is alive, and we can’t wait to celebrate with your kids! Our month begins with the worst day in history, when Jesus was crucified, followed by the very best day: when He rose again! Throughout April, the kids will learn that Jesus died for our sins, made a way for us to be close to God again, and when He stepped out of the tomb, He defeated the power of death. This is why we can have joy, no matter what’s going on in our lives. 

Our April memory verse is: “Always be joyful because you belong to the Lord. I will say it again. Be joyful!” Philippians 4:4 (NIrV)

He is risen, indeed!

Join us this Easter season as we gather to celebrate and remember the death and resurrection of Jesus and His incredible power to rescue and restore. We hope you will join us in person or online and invite your friends and family. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

This year, our Easter offering will be for the Benevolence Fund here at Island Christian. This special fund is used specifically to help people in need, both in our church family and our community. In the past year, we've been able to help more people than ever before, so it's time to fill up the fund again! The Benevolence Fund provides assistance in various ways, including gas cards, helping with medical bills, rent and housing assistance, counseling assistance, grocery assistance, and many other needs. If you would like to give to this fund electronically, you can use any of our online options and select “Easter 2026.” You can also contribute by mail or dropbox and put on the envelope or check memo “Easter 2026.”

We are currently renovating a space in our gym to create a new Game Room. This is going to be a great space for our youth to connect and have fun, too! It's time to fill it with games! If you would like to purchase a board game or a video game for the Game Room, please visit our Amazon registry.

We are also looking for an old school pinball machine. If you have one that you would like to donate, please email genny.seifert@islandchristian.com

April 19 at 8:30, 10:00, & 11:30 AM

Baptism is a joyous, public proclamation of our faith in Christ. It is an outward act that testifies to what happened in our hearts when we repented of our sin and trusted Christ for our salvation. The picture of baptism is the dying to our old life and the beginning of our new resurrected life with Christ. In the New Testament, those coming to faith in Christ were baptized right away.
A mandatory baptism class will take place the morning of baptisms.

Alpha is a great conversational small group class where you can bring your questions about the Christian faith and learn how to grow in a relationship with God. It is a safe place to ask questions about the meaning of life and about God. Whether you or a friend or family member is seeking a safe space to have a conversation about faith, or you are ready to take the next step of growing in your faith, Alpha is for you!

Our Alpha conversations are held on Tuesday evenings. We meet over 11 weeks for a brief teaching, followed by discussion. All sessions start with a meal, providing a time to connect and build friendships. There is no charge to attend!
