Hope Kids
OUR MISSION: TO GLORIFY GOD THROUGH THE FULFILLMENT OF THE GREAT COMMISSION IN THE SPIRIT OF THE GREAT COMMANDMENT
(MATTHEW 28:19-20, MATTHEW 22:37-39)
Our desire as a ministry of Hope Ottawa is to come alongside parents and guardians to equip, support, and inspire them as the primary spiritual leader in the lives of their children. Our role at Hope Kids is to supplement the teaching supplied in the home with church-based programs, activities, teaching, and events in order to help children understand who God is and what Jesus has done for them.
We seek to lovingly evangelize and disciple their children toward faith in Jesus Christ, which will be the basis for a gospel-centered, Biblical worldview that will last for life.
We provide a learning environment that supports the six distinctives of Hope Bible Church in a way that is engaging for children at various stages of physical, mental, social and spiritual development. Our mission is fulfilled as seeds are planted (1 Corinthians 3:6) and disciples of Jesus Christ are made (Isaiah 61:3b).
HAVE PEACE OF MIND WHILE YOU WORSHIP
You can leave your children with us, knowing that everyone who serves in Hope Kids, from Nursery through Grade 5, has undergone a criminal background check with a Vulnerable Sector Screening. The Hope Kids ministry is located in a secure area where only authorized HK workers and parents/caregivers can enter.
Nursing mothers, feel confident to feed your child in our private nursing area with radio access to the service, so as to not miss a word!
