Kindergarten – 5th Grade
KIDZ
LIFE.
Bible stories at their level, songs with motions, and leaders who learn their names in week one. Sunday mornings at 9:45, plus Kidz Klub every Wednesday night.
“Let the little children come to me.”
We just add goldfish crackers and craft glitter.
Kidz Life is where kindergarten through 5th graders meet the God of the Bible in words they can actually hold onto. Jesus made room for children on purpose, in the middle of a crowd that was trying to shoo them away — so we do too.
Where to find us
Two gatherings a week, both at the same hours as everyone else in the family, so nobody makes a second trip.
Wednesday Nights · K – 5th Grade
KIDZ KLUB
Wednesdays · 6:00 – 8:00 PM
Two hours of games, worship and teaching that they will talk about the whole way home. Dinner in the gym comes first, so nobody is starting the night hungry.
Sunday Mornings
Life Groups
Sundays · 9:45 – 10:30 AM
Kids have their own room during the Life Groups hour, running alongside the adult groups. Worship follows at 11:00 AM, so the whole family is in the building at the same time.
Wednesdays · 6:00 – 6:30 PM · The Gym
Dinner first — you are not cooking.
A family-friendly dinner in the gym every Wednesday before everyone scatters to their rooms. Come straight from work and bring the whole family.
Wednesdays · K – 12th Grade
Need a ride? We run a bus.
New Life buses children and students from across Bonita on Wednesday nights. If getting here is the only thing standing in the way, it doesn't have to be — we would rather send the bus than have you miss it.

What a Wednesday night holds.
Doors open after dinner and the room fills up fast. The shape of the night is the same every week, which is exactly what kids this age want.

What it's actually like
The Bible, In Their Words
Not a watered-down version — the same God, told in language a second grader can carry home and repeat at the dinner table. They are learning Scripture, not just hearing a moral.
Songs With Motions
Loud, and with all the hand motions. Psalm 150 never mentioned an age limit on the cymbals, and a kid who sings a truth on Wednesday still knows it on Saturday.
Known By Name
Leaders learn their names in week one. A child who is known is a child who comes back — no kid gets to be the one nobody noticed.
The Same Every Week
Same rooms, same faces, same rhythm. The predictability is the point — it is what makes a nervous first-timer into a regular by the third week.
Straight off a Wednesday
Loud, messy, and worth the drive.
Real nights at New Life — a summer Family Fun Night on the lawn, the bus ride home, and a camp full of raised hands. Not a stock photo among them.
Beyond a normal Wednesday
The nights the whole family comes.
A few Wednesdays a year are bigger than the rest, and families are encouraged to come together for those. Dates go up on the church calendar and on Facebook.
Trunk-or-Treat
Thanksgiving dinner
The Christmas party
