FORMED HOLY TO GOD

 

AUGUST 2026

AT THE HOME // Vol 4 Issue

Hello, FORM KIDS Fam!

It’s hard to believe the summer is almost over and school is about to begin again! Whether you are excited about the upcoming school year or mourning the end of summer vacation, we’ve got you covered! As you begin to prepare for a new year with Form Kids, we desire to come alongside you as you teach your children about God’s love through a community of faith. There are several opportunities and ways to get involved at church and continue the conversation at home. Listed below are the ways you can join us as we disciple young families. If you would like to be involved and volunteer in any of these areas, please contact Tonya@arlingtonadventist.com. Our children’s programming happens because of amazing volunteers, dedicated parents, and teens who have a desire to share God’s love with the next generation.


What is FORM KIDS?

We desire to see families grow stronger in their relationship with God and each other, producing young adults who are confident in their worth: valued by God and their family. Here are a few ways Form Kids can help you as you disciple your children.

Messy church provides an opportunity for families to engage in worship together. Every 4th Wednesday @6pm. Dinner provided

Family Connect events provide an opportunity for families to play together. Throughout the year, dates change based on event.

Community Connection provides opportunities for families to form relationships with the larger church body. Occurs once a quarter.

Sabbath School provides weekly Bible study for kids and provides parents the opportunity to share their faith with their children as they teach a class.

Family Devotions provides weekly activities for families to easily complete together in the form of reading, questions, and an engaging activity.

MESSY CHURCH// AUGUST 26 @6pm

Messy church will resume in August. Plan to join us every 4th Wednesday this school year as we study God’s word through craft, play and family worship. Messy church is a relaxed environment filled with fun and an excuse to play and craft with your kids all while learning about God! Don’t miss this special time prepared for your family.

A light dinner will follow. No drop-offs. Registration is not required but is helpful for food or if you have a food allergy/restriction.

 

WHAT we’re teaching +

Time travel is such an exciting concept to imagine! If we could hop into a time machine and visit the past, we might be surprised by how much has changed-and how some things stay exactly the same. One thing we'd discover is that God's love and faithfulness are timeless. In this 5-week series, kids will explore how God's messages to us never change, no matter the time or place. They'll learn that God's love is timeless, we can seek God any time, God is good all the time, God takes the time to forgive, and God is with us at all times.
