Children’s Ministry during the COVID-19
Parents, the safety of your children is one of our main concerns. Our goal is to build your children up in the ways of Jesus, but in a safe and healthy environment. Our church has made the decision to heed to the government and medical field guidelines and requirements to not meet in person in response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic. It was a difficult decision, because we enjoy having you and your children join us at church to worship Jesus Christ. However, we know it is an important decision for this uncertain time. We have created two ways to continue to communicate with you and your children, which you can access with the buttons below. The EFC Chico Children’s Ministry Group and the EFC Chico Awana Group are private Facebook Groups that you can access with your children. There are videos and verses to encourage them during this government stay-at-home order. They are private, so you will need to request to join. We check it regularly and will add you to the group. Please do not hesitate to contact Pastor Jim at (530)343-6022 x218 if there is any help we can provide to you or your family.
Children’s Ministry Connections
We Love Your Kids!
We love your kids! The Children’s Ministry at Evangelical Free Church of Chico (EFCC) exists to partner with families in laying a solid spiritual foundation for every child, birth through Grade 5. We seek to introduce children to Jesus in a safe and fun environment. We have age appropriate programs for every child so that they can learn, grow in their faith and have fun too!
We care about the safety of your children. All of our volunteers and childcare staff complete a thorough vetting process which includes a background check prior to serving with children.
