kids & families
Life Kids is a space for kids to connect with Jesus, make friends and have fun.
We celebrate the joy (and chaos) that kids bring to church life! Here at Abundant we are super passionate about connecting kids with Jesus, the church and the wider community! We offer Sunday morning programs and midweek groups to partner with parents in building their kids faith foundation. It’s our hope that every child has the opportunity to learn -
God loves me
God made me
God wants to be my friend
With Jesus, I can love and serve others
Check out below all the fun we get up to in our Sunday kids programs and please be in touch if we can support your family in any prayerful or practical ways.

Life Kids
From 4 years - 12 years
Life Kids start church in the main auditorium with their parents or caregivers. This is an opportunity for kids to engage in praise and prayer, and know that they are a valuable part of the church family. Children head out to the Life Kids building before the spoken message, where they enjoy fruit and crackers for morning tea. Our amazing volunteers lead kids deep into Bible stories with action packed mornings that encourage and nurture their growing faith. Kids enjoy games, crafts, scripture memorisation and outside play in our kids play space. We also have a library fully stocked with fantastic Christian kids books for your family to borrow!
