first kids ministry:

First Kids is for children newborn through 5th grade!

 The youngest children, newborns through 2 years old, are watched over by a loving staff in our nursery that we call our "Small World.".  There they  hear stories from the Bible, have playtime with friends, and are loved on and cared for.  We believe it is never too early for children to hear the Word of God.

In our "Adventure World," our older kids (ages 3 years old through fifth grade) have a special time together.  We believe kids don't have to wait until they're grown to be world changers. With a firm foundation built on God's Love, His Word, and His Plan, they can make a difference TODAY. That's why FIRST KIDS exists. We want to see these kids seeking after God and learning they can BELIEVE in God's love for them, they can TRUST in God's Word and they can CHOOSE God's Plan.

We teach the scriptures so every child can increase their knowledge and wisdom of God's love for them. We also provide experiences to help them grow in their God-given talents and abilities. Special times are set aside for service projects that will help them learn to love others better. And worship opportunities are provided to encourage the relationship between the child and God. FIRST KIDS is a GREAT place to learn about God and about His love for us.

We'd love to have your child(ren) join in the fun! 

kstudents ministry:

KStudents is for youth 6th - 12th grade!

The youth ministry of First Wesleyan Church,  KStudents,  exists to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to students (6th grade through 12th grade),  inviting them into a saving relationship with Him,  and then discipling them,  walking with them as they grow deeper in faith and understanding.

A mature Christian lifestyle is a multi-faceted thing,  and through our weekly youth group meetings,  we try to assist students in learning those many pieces. Music and prayer are integral parts of our youth meetings, providing all involved with an opportunity to approach God with prayer and praise. There is Bible teaching every week targeting issues that teens deal with regularly at school and at home, as well as disciplines and concepts that will help them advance their understanding of God on their own. Along with our weekly Bible teaching, we like to include worship, games, icebreakers, and videos to allow the teens to feel more comfortable in their surroundings. We also offer two youth camps during the summer: Camp Wesley and NC West District camp. When we are able to,  KStudents participates in weekend retreats as well as district lock-ins.
