The First Sunday of Every Month

Surf City Kids could not be more excited for Family First Sundays! What could be more fun than families coming to church and worshipping side-by-side. Family First services are geared towards family lessons from the Scriptures and are fun for kids of all ages, including you! Your child will receive a Surf City Kids box filled with items, which reinforce what is being taught during service and assists with family “talking points” throughout the month.
