The Reign Forest PDF Print E-mail

Hey kids and families! Palisades is starting an ALL NEW program for kids this fall -- “The Reign Forest” (Where God Reigns and Kids Grow). Every Wednesday night, starting October 7 from 5:30-7:30 p.m., kids in preschool (age 3) through 8th grade will have a “jungle” of fun as they go on a “safari ride” of adventures in Bible study, dinner hour, recreation/crafts and worship time.


“The Reign Forest” will be an uplifting and enthusiastic place filled with “reign-bows and “SONshine” where children can play, worship, and enjoy time with friends, in a fun and nurturing environment. Children will learn the many stories of the Bible through interactive learning and creative, hands-on lessons to help them deepen their understanding of the love of Christ.


At “The Reign Forest,” we’ll strive to take a step back from the busyness of everyday life, and to allow childhood to be a journey with Christ, instead of a race to grow up. We’ll turn off those gadgets and focus on the truly important things in life: praising God, loving one another, laughing, learning, helping people in need, and growing in faith and character.


“The Reign Forest” is currently looking for loving and nurturing church family volunteers who feel called to serve in areas of their giftedness. We have a need for recreation leaders, piano accompanists, Bible study leaders, craft helpers and dinner hour cooks and clean-up volunteers. A “Reign Forest” staff meeting will take place on Sunday, September 13 following worship. The Reign Forest Parent Meeting will take place on Sunday, Sept. 29 (more information to come). Please contact Susan Murphy to find out how you can become involved.
