Kids and Parents Together
(Kindergarten – 5th Grade)

They are sometimes noisy, often bashful and always energetic.

But most of all, they are wonderful and you see them everywhere. They are our kids Kindergarten – 5th Grade. They are extraordinary and they are important! And they are not forgotten. In fact, we have a special place for them in the scheme of things at Washington Avenue…and we call that group KPT.

Focusing on the age appropriate needs of these children, we give careful attention to their development in learning, service and social functions. To that end, activities abound to support their particular needs. Two notable areas are:

The focus of this activity is to bring our children and their families together in a setting that will emphasize devotion, fellowship, service and fun. Generally, there are  devotional sessions and  activity functions yearly. Examples of recent activities include boys making short talks and girls singing classes. Service activities have included “Herb’s Helpers” (participating in an ALS fundraising walkathon) and providing gifts to children at the Kentucky Potters Home. This group has supported our annual Vacation Bible School through neighborhood “door knocking” campaigns. The children have made gift baskets for widows and widowers, college students and military personnel. And, as you would expect, kids in this group participate in congregational fellowship activities ranging through hayrides, movie outings and zoo trips.

Well, by now, you get the idea. Action and energy are two words that describe our Kids and Parents Together group.
