EdgeKids Programming
Weekend Ministry
There's a place for every kid at Edgewood! EdgeKids is designed to provide a safe and fun environment where children experience God's love for them through Bible teaching, music, discussion, and age-appropriate activities.
AWANA Clubs
Awana is an international, evangelical Christian program focused on child and youth discipleship. It is every Wednesday from September through April for children aged three years through 6th grade. The Awana name is derived from 2 Timothy 2:15: "Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed." The Awana curriculum is also utilized on Thursday night at Youth Group for students 7th-12th grade.
Vacation Bible School (VBS)
Each summer, kids completely have a blast learning about Jesus.
