Laying a foundation

At North Roanoke we are committed to providing a preschool/kid's ministry that prepares the way for kids to know Jesus as their personal Savior and lays the foundation for them to begin a lifetime of knowing, loving, and serving Him. We are investing in kids and connecting them to Christ.

preschool

We consider it a blessing to serve families by loving babies - pre k boys & girls while parents/ guardians are refueling and refreshing through small group relationships, corporate worship, and serving others.  
At North Roanoke we know it is never to early to begin speaking/sharing truth from God's word with little ones and take the opportunity to share these truths and pray with and over each child very seriously. 
We do this most consistently through our weekly ministries in which we offer Sunday school, Preschool worship, and Wednesday night activities.  
We also have special events throughout the year geared towards our preschool friends and their families.  These events include, but are not limited to, VBS, Easter Egg Hunt, & Trunk or Treat.
All of our times are spent in well-staffed rooms with volunteers that are trained and annually background checked.

kids' ministry

As commanded in Deuteronomy 6, at North Roanoke we believe it is the primary responsibility of the parents to disciple their children. ​Our desire is to come along side parents and support them in this endeavor.  One of the main ways we strive to do so is by using The Gospel Project curriculum. On Sunday mornings during Sunday School and Worship, we are working our way through a three year plan from Genesis to Revelation and every lesson points us to Jesus.  What is exciting is that many of our adult classes are also using The Gospel Project material, as well as our youth.  So families are studying the same lesson each week.  
On Wednesday nights, our program is an extension of (but not dependent on) Sunday morning as we do center activities related to the verse the kids are committing to memory from the lesson on Sunday.  The kids also participate in  a music center each week as well as a prayer time and other exciting rotating centers.  
In addition to our regular weekly programming, we also have special events throughout the year that are intended to be special moments in a child's relationship with Christ.

vacation bible school (vbs) | july 26-30, 2021

VBS 2021 is headed to present-day Israel where discovery awaits at Destination Dig. Kids will unearth more than dirt as they dig up exciting evidence that proves biblical events were not just stories. As junior archaeologists, kids will explore real-life archaeological finds that have helped to uncover the truth about Jesus! Along the way, they’ll discover the truth of Jeremiah 29:13, that God reveals Himself to us when we seek and search for Him with all our hearts.

Plan now for your 3 year old - completed 5th graders to join us July 26 - 30 for a great week of unearthing the truth about Jesus found in God's Word.  If you would like to register your kids for this exciting adventure, you can do so at the following link: Registration 

upward sports

The Recreation Division offers basketball, soccer, cheerleading, and flag football programs for young athletes with a focus to teach the game through sportsmanship and healthy competition. Through age-appropriate team play, athletes begin to build positive character traits that will allow them to encourage and strengthen themselves and their teammates.

At North Roanoke, we currently offer basketball and cheerleading.  Registration will open in October with practice beginning in December.  The 8-week season consists of Saturday games from January to the first week in March. Plan now to be a part of our UPWARD program.
