Last year's theme: Made to Magnify God!

God made us, cares about us, loves us, forgives us, and is faithful to keep all His promises to us. We can praise God together! We were made to magnify God!

Spiritual Growth

Each session is designed to help kids understand the importance of Jesus in their lives and why everyone needs Him.

Why MAgnified?

Our amazing God is not only the Creator of all things, but He also cares about His creation, right down to the tiniest detail. And the Bible tells us that people are the most significant part of that creation.


God created you and knows every detail about you—right down to the design of your fingerprints and the number of hairs on your head. God cares about everything that happens to you.
