Welcome to CrossCity Kids!

At CrossCity, we believe that childhood is an ideal time to discover and experience Jesus and His love. From the time that a child enters the nursery through the time that they move up to Junior High, children will learn to “Love God, Love Others, and Serve the World” while engaging in meaningful relationships, growing in Christ, and serving others. Come visit us in our fun, family-friendly facilities during our weekend services. We are honored to partner with you as your child journeys through the Children’s Ministry.

Service Times:

Saturday Nights: 6:00pm    |    Sunday Mornings:  9:15am & ll:00am

FIRST TIME GUEST

Our First Time Guest Check-in kiosk is located in the foyer of the Kids Building. If you have a child under 3 years of age, you can check them in at the Nursery desk in the Worship Building.  One of our Children’s Greeters will check you in at a computer, get your nametags/parent ID tags, and escort you to the proper group environment. All of our leaders are background checked, interviewed, and are excited to share Jesus
with your family.

Nursery/Toddler:
At CrossCity Christian Church, we believe that God can have an effect on the life of a child from the time that they are born. Our Nursery and Toddler Programs provide care for infants and toddlers for ages birth up to 3 years of age during our weekend services.  Children are engaged in play, worship, snack, and more with our dedicated volunteer staff.

Preschool:
Our weekly preschool environment is created especially for kids 2½ (potty trained) through Kindergarten. We know that young children are learning and growing in amazing ways. Every weekend, we take advantage of this unique opportunity to introduce them to their loving Heavenly Father. Nothing is more important for your children than to begin to understand who God is. We want them to know God as their Creator, their Heavenly Father, and their Friend. With this in mind, we want all preschoolers to master three key truths. God MADE me. God LOVES me. Jesus wants to be my FRIEND forever.

Elementary: 1st-4th
Our elementary environment is designed for kids 1st-4th grade. We believe the Bible should never be boring, worship can be really loud, and good leaders always care. Before kids head off to middle school, we want to make sure these three things stick… I need to make the WISE choice. I can TRUST God no matter what. I should treat others the way I want to be treated. The focus at CrossCity Kids is to see how God’s Word fits into their lives, to learn how to talk to Him, and to build friendships that will last.

Preteen: 5th-6th
CrossCity Fresno now has its very own Preteen Ministry that will incorporate two Sunday morning worship services, small groups, discipleship and service opportunities, camps, Faithgirlz, Christ Warriors, recreational events, and more! Our new ministry is called “Flyte 56.” The word “Flyte” is a blend of the words, Faith, Life and Together (well, loosely!). It is our desire and goal at CrossCity to prepare our preteens to take off and fly with their faith. The “56” stands for 5th and 6th grade.

Here are a few more things you need to know:

Preteen Games. Whenever there is a fifth Sunday, we will have what has become a popular event – Flyte 56 Games. On that day, we will eat food, play crazy games and encourage kids to Bring A Friend.

Mid-India Child Sponsorship. Our group sponsors a little boy from the Oasis of Love ministry through Mid-India Mission. The monthly sponsorship is $50.00. We will have an offering box available in the Flyte room each week for the preteens’ tithes and offerings to go to this purpose.

Christ Warriors and Faithgirlz. Your preteen will not want to miss these special meetings! Christ Warriors meets on the first & third Saturdays of each month, in the Hub, from 4:00-5:30. Faithgirlz meets the first Saturday of the month, in room 201 in the Student Center, from 4:00-5:30. You can pre-register by using this link, and then when you arrive, you can sign your child in on the kiosk:
