is the name of our Children’s Ministry at First Presbyterian Bakersfield and is led by a team of staff and volunteers whose passion is children and who have been carefully screened and trained to ensure your child’s safety and security. Our goal is to provide a fun and interactive program tailored just for kids no matter what age and grade to help them know Jesus and grow spiritually as they build meaningful relationships with other children and adults! Our ministry exists to guide children in their JOURNEY to Know Christ, Love one Another, and Bless the World. Everything we do is centered around Knowing Christ, Loving one Another and Blessing the World, and we believe this helps prepare your children for a life-long journey with Jesus and equips each child to live out their faith in a meaningful way and share that faith with others!


Step into Wonder Lab — where kids become scientists and discover the wonder of God’s love! Through exciting experiments, hands-on STEM activities, and more, kids will explore how God’s love helps us grow strong roots. As we learn from the book of Ephesians, we’ll discover how God changes us and help us flourish!
This event is for families of elementary aged kids. Childcare will be available for 0-3 years if desired. (All children must be accompanied by an adult.)
Doors open at 2:45pm; program begins at 3:00pm. Our time together will finish with an ice cream social!
