Kids Ministry
Helping children understand who God is and what it means to have a relationship with Him.
Kidzburgh is a safe place where kids discover how much they matter to God. Through Gospel-centered teaching, worship, relationships, and hands-on learning, kids will have fun finding their place in God's story! We partner with families in their mission to guide their kids to find and follow Jesus.
Check out the Butler County or Strip District pages for information on Kids Ministry at those campuses.

Weekend Services
First time in Kidzburgh and want to get a head start on your child's check-in process? Plan to use the button below to "Pre-Register Your Child!” This will enable the Kidzburgh team to start a profile for your child and will streamline your check-in process when you arrive at the church. Thank you for considering this option!
This step is only necessary if this is your first time attending Kidzburgh, then your child will be registered in our system for the future!
Room Sanitation
Kidzburgh teams sanitize the rooms between services. Additionally, deep cleaning happens throughout the week. All staff and kids are asked to sanitize their hands before entering and exiting the rooms.
Newborn & Toddlers
Children are divided into one of two rooms depending on their unique stage of development.
The nursery is a quiet place with dim-lighting and rockers for babies and younger children who are not yet steady on their feet.
A safe zone for explorative toddlers and active two-year-olds includes a place for creative play.
Preschool
Your inquisitive preschooler will begin to learn the basics of the Gospel: God made the world, there is brokenness in our heart, and Jesus is the only Savior.
We use a mixture of focused play, activities, teaching, song, and dance.
Elementary
Kids spend time in large groups to learn through focused games, worship, and creative teaching and activities.
Kids spend time in small groups to get to know each other, discuss the Bible and apply it to their lives.

Milestones
Baptism & Dedication
At Orchard Hill, we practice both baptism and dedication for children. Parents can choose, based on your own theological conviction, whether to have your child baptized or dedicated.
Baptism - Baptism for children is celebrated through sprinkling as a sign and seal of a Covenant Relationship.
Dedication - In Dedication, parents bring their children before the Lord as an act of worship and commitment – a time to publicly declare a desire to raise children in such a way that they come to a point of personal faith.
First Communion
First Communion is a celebration of a child’s first experience receiving communion as they remember Christ and His sacrifice for them. Any child in 2nd - 5th grade is invited to participate. The Pastoral and Kids' Ministry Staff will walk with you and your child through a preparatory season leading up to Communion Sunday.
The goal of this preparatory season is to help you and your child discern if your child is ready to participate in this special milestone of faith.
First Communion will be held on Sunday, May 19, 2024
