Welcome to Adventureland...

Leading kids to Jesus for the adventure of a lifetime is the mission of Adventureland, the children’s ministry of New Horizon for children from 6 weeks-5th grade.

Adventureland’s goal is to unlock children’s hearts to the timeless truths of God’s great love for them and the role they can play in His big story. Using the keys that unlock children’s hearts including: moving, talking, eating, playing and being with friends, dedicated teachers share the good news of God’s everlasting love and desire to be each child’s Forgiver, Leader and Forever Friend.

Sunday mornings in Adventureland vary according to the worship experience you attend. Children can attend Adventureland throughout the entire worship time during the 8:30 and 9:45 services or attend the opening of the adult worship experience then attend Adventureland following the Children’s Message at the 11:10 service.

The tabs above will provide you with more specific information geared toward your child’s age group, special events offered throughout the year and additional information in the Resources area. If you should have unanswered questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

  • Dinner and a Movie

    We are very excited to be presenting Ratatouille this Friday night at 6PM.  This is the perfect event for kids to invite their friends and neighbors to join them as they discover New Horizon is a place where we love kids. 

     

    We’ll serve pizza, carrot sticks, pop, and desserts.  During our brief intermission we’ll have a drawing for some special Ratatouille prizes and serve popcorn. 

     

    This night is designed for both adults and children and we ask that each child has someone on site responsible for them. 

     

    See you then,

    Jennifer

  • Adventureland Update

    This Saturday is Summer Splash from 2-4PM at Roger and Joye Perry’s house.  They are very excited about hosting Summer Splash and if I haven’t made this clear, their yard is HUGE.  We will be having all of the things we have had at New Horizon including the large tube slide from Action Inflatables and more… like their in ground pool with two lifeguards. 

    Then, on Sunday there will be tours available of the new building.  While everyone knows their own children best, I think most can tour it with their parents without a problem. 

    This brings up the subject of WHAT are we doing in the new building and in the current building with Adventureland.  A lot of things are already in place and some are in the works and some may have crossed your mind and not mine… now is the time to throw them out there in an email back to me. 

    Finally, the date for Dinner and a Movie is August 22nd from 6-8:30PM.  We’ll let the elementary kids vote on the movie again this year.

    That is a lot for today, but I hope it is helpful.
