Sunday Grow Group

Our Sunday Grow Group is for kids in K—5th Grade and meets at 9:45 am. Children learn Biblical truth in a way they can understand while building friendships and growing in their relationship with Jesus.

Our mission is to help elementary-aged kids (Kindergarten through 5th Grade) discover who God is, build a lasting foundation in their faith, and have a blast doing it. We provide a safe, high-energy environment where children can learn, grow, and make friends. Kids are also welcome to stay in service with their parents.

Wednesday nights are full of Bible lessons, high-energy games, and lots of fun as children grow in their faith and in their friendships together.

Wednesday Kids

Safety First: Your child’s safety is our top priority. All our teachers and volunteers are background-checked and trained to provide a safe and nurturing environment.

We would love to help your family feel at home at Oconee Heights Baptist Church.
