Kids Ministry in Northport, AL

Our Kids' Ministry aspires to nurture your children's spiritual growth and well-being by cultivating a community where young hearts and minds can flourish in faith, love, and joy.

About Our Kids’ Ministry

Mission Statement: The Northport Baptist Church Kids' Ministry is committed to cultivating and nurturing an environment where children can grow spiritually, build meaningful relationships, and discover the love of Jesus in a way that is fun and engaging through Bible study and worship services.

What We Offer

Our children's church program serves two age groups: birth through preschool and kindergarten through 5th grade. In addition to our regular worship service, we provide many interactive activities and events year-round that focus on building relationships and learning about God's love!

Birth through Preschool

Join us at Lil’ Kids, where we offer a fun and safe way to learn about the love of Jesus! Your children will learn Bible stories through interactive play, hands-on activities, music, and arts and crafts. The Lil' Kids program features events throughout the year, such as VBS, parents’ night out, our annual Easter Egg Hunt, and other holiday activities. We can't wait to see your lil’ kid get in on the fun!

Kindergarten through 5TH Grade

NBC Kids is our kindergarten through 5th grade ministry. At NBC Kids, your children will start their discipleship journey through Christ-led fellowship, learning about the Lord, and seeing God’s Word in life and action. They’ll also get to participate in fun and engaging events throughout the year, including VBS, summer camp, and holiday-themed events like our Pumpkin Party and Friendsgiving!

Safety and Security

Our Commitment to Child Safety

Our first priority is the safety of the children in our care, and we want parents to feel confident that their children are in a safe and secure environment. We take measures to ensure the safety of everyone in our Kids' Ministry with non-negotiable requirements. All teachers must submit to a background check, and all teachers and helpers must attend mandatory training.

Check-In/Check-Out Procedures: All children must be checked in at our check-in kiosks located in the Children’s Ministry hallway. Kids will receive a sticker with their name on it and parents will receive a corresponding sticker to use for pick up.
