Redeemer Kids
Redeemer Kids exists to unite church & home in declaring Jesus and developing Jesus followers among kids & families. To that end, we read, pray, and sing together as God's people. What we do on Sundays, you can support at home: learn the hymn of the month, read the books, review the catechism, and continue in prayer.
Memory Verse and Catechism Question
Every Sunday, we go over a memory verse and catechism question with your children. You can help prepare your kids by talking to them about the upcoming verse and NEW CITY CATECHISM question of the week, listed here:
Month of April
April 6:
Memory Verse:
"If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." - MARK 8:34
- Q24. Why was it necessary for Christ, the Redeemer, to die?
Christ died willingly in our place to deliver us from the power and penalty of sin and bring us back to God.
April 13:
Memory Verse:
"Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!" - LUKE 19:38
- Q25. Does Christ’s death mean all our sins can be forgiven?
Yes, because Christ’s death on the cross fully paid the penalty for our sin, God will remember our sins no more.
April 20 (Easter):
Memory Verse:
“Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is
your sting?” 1 CORINTHIANS 15:54–55

Every part of fallen creation.
April 27
Memory Verse:
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for
apart from me you can do nothing. - JOHN 15:5
- Q27. Are all people, just as they were lost through Adam, saved through Christ?
No, only those who are elected by God and united to Christ by faith.
Curriculum plan
In Preschool 2-4 we teach through our "In-house" curriculum. Each week we learn key stories from the Bible in engaging ways that make God's Word come alive to the kids.
In K - 5th Grade we use Crossway's "The Biggest Story" curriculum. Each week we learn a new Bible story, chronologically going through the entire Bible with the kids learning how the Bible is one big story, centered upon the person and work of Jesus Christ.
Prayer of Salvation
Titus 3:3-5 says, “For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit."
When children understand that their sin separates them from God and has eternal consequences, and choose to seek forgiveness of their sin through Jesus Christ alone, here is an example of how you can pray together:
Jesus - I know that you made me and want me to obey you with all my heart. I know I have disobeyed and wanted to go my own way. I have thought and done things against your directions. I am sorry. I know that you gave up your life to save me from these sins and to make me your child again. I accept your promises and ask you to please save me now and forever. Amen.
Please let us know if your child has made a profession of faith by filling out this form. We want to rejoice and celebrate with you!
Hymn of the Month
4th & 5th Events
As your student enters 4th & 5th grade, we want to work to prepare them for their teenage years, building healthy community and friendships. We have monthly events designed to promote these relationships and to strengthen bonds as the student graduates into Redeemer Students.
Family Worship Sundays
On the fourth and fifth Sundays of the month, we have Family Worship Sundays. We believe that a crucial part of a child's discipleship is seeing the church worship, pray, and learn together. So on these last Sundays of the month, we provide childcare for infants-3rd grade, but the 4th & 5th graders attend worship with their families in the main auditorium.
