Not ‘just a kid’…
We know you’re raising ordinary world changers! Our heart is to partner with you to equip your children to make a difference in their world.
What does a Sunday at Southside KiDS look like?
Everything we do shouts this message: ‘you are loved.’ Through praise music, fun activities, connection with leaders and friends, and Biblical teaching at their level, your kids are equipped to know and walk in a relationship with Jesus.
Kids meet in their small groups and work together to practically apply God’s truth in their lives. Ordinary world changers know how to make a difference in their schools, families and neighbourhoods.
Meet our KiDS Team!

“There’s something special that happens when kids become confident of who God’s created them to be at a young age.
Our hope is that no matter what they go through in life, they carry a confidence that’s anchored in the truth of who Jesus is and who he has created them to be.
We hope that no matter how old they are, they look back at their time in Southside KiDS and remember that God’s equipped them to be an ordinary world changer.”

“We believe in the mission of Equal Access as it provides ALL kids an opportunity to build a relationship with God in a way that best suits them.”
Our Equal Access Room is filled with educated and equipped volunteers like Jenn and Anna-Marie who provide a safe space for our world changers with special needs!

I think it’s so special that our church is a place where kids can be their unique self. Kids KNOW they are loved -not only by Jesus, but by their friends and leaders too.

“My favourite part of serving in KiDS is the weekly reminder that I am a part of something so much bigger than myself. Even though the kids are young, I hope that when they look back on their memories in Kids Church, they remember that they were cared for and had a blast!”

Every week I walk into Kids Church, I get the privilege to speak into the lives that hold the future of our church. I’m reminded how beautiful it is to get to know God as a child. That’s what we’re doing: introducing our kids to their creator and greatest friend. We’re setting them up with confidence, knowing that God loves them and has a fantastic plan for their life.
Planning Your First Visit?
We’re so excited to meet you! When you arrive, our team will happily check you in at the first-time check-in station.
There, you can tell us a little about your family to help us serve you well. Check-in opens 15 minutes before the start of the service, we’d recommend leaving yourself a bit of extra time on your first visit.
Want to save some time? Skip the line and fill out our New Here form before you come!
You and your child will both get a sticker with a matching code. This sticker is what you’ll use to pick up your child after the service.
Have a child who could benefit from a quieter experience? Contact us to apply for our Equal Access Room!
