MINISTRY SNAPSHOT

Our mission at Trinkids is to come alongside families in our church and community to prepare our children for a life rooted in the saving grace of Jesus Christ and His unfailing love. As a children’s ministry, we serve a predominantly well-resourced part of Tuscaloosa. The average family at Trinity would be known for their warmth, sociability, and bustling schedules. At Trinkids, we shepherd approximately 125 children within our ministry orbit. Our Sunday School and TKWorship programming see consistent attendance, averaging 25 and 40 kids, respectively. Sunday programming offers a highly structured curriculum that aims to preach the gospel, familiarize our children with the Story of Scripture, and provide core doctrinal catechism. Our weekly evening program, TrinkidsPM is currently also on Sunday and draws around 50 children. Our most successful outreach event is Vacation Bible School each summer, where we serve an average of 175 children from our church and surrounding community. We are encouraged to continue and improve fostering an environment where children grasp the gospel, commit scripture and catechism to heart, and can become communing members when ready. We love to witness children leave our ministry programming with newfound knowledge and excitement. Help us continue spreading the good news of Jesus at TrinKids!
