Kids, youth and families are an important part of our community!


Coming to a Sunday Service?

Sunday services are for the whole family!

While toddlers and babies are welcome to sit with you, we do have a play room for you to use that’s full of toys and games, and you won’t miss any of the service.

Kids and youth are invited to join our Sunday school, which we refer to as the Youth & Kids Collective (YK Collective).  Our YK Collective is a place where there are no pre-identified separations, which is why we’ve adopted a ‘one room schoolhouse’ style setting, grouping kids from ages 5 to 16 together each Sunday.  We’ve had great success with this model.  Our children and youth enjoy engaging with each other, and appreciate the unique skills and gifts each age level brings to the work each Sunday

As we reimagine what we can offer kids on Sundays, we’d love to hear from you. Please get in touch here with your ideas and dreams so we can offer the best programming we can.

To volunteer to help guide the next generation of RDLUC, please RSVP at rdluckidsministry@gmail.com

Youth & Kids Collective Newsletter - Volume 1: Winter Edition


Collective Kindness Mail Project

Our Youth and Kids Collective would like to build bonds with our congregation through a pen pal project.

We are inviting invite members and attendees to write a short letter to our kids.

Our Collective would then respond to each letter over the next few weeks, and mail out a reply to each letter.

Members and attendees can choose to participate once, or several times. Participation is entirely voluntary.

If members choose to continue to send reply letters to the collective, they will continue to receive a reply.  

If you would like to participate in this program, you can drop your letter off at the main entrance of the church.

Look for the table with our ‘Collective Kindness Mail’ sign and place your letter into the basket provided.

You will receive a response within a few weeks (kids will answer letters every second week).
