GABC is excited to foster relationships in our neighborhoods by encouraging members to host Backyard Kids Clubs. These clubs are offered in various locations throughout Ames and neighboring communities during the summer. Through storytelling, crafts, music, and games kids will learn and grow together. 

Backyard Kids Club 2023  TWISTS AND TURNS

In partnership with Lifeway curriculum, we’ll focus on the theme TWISTS AND TURNS: Spin the spinner, beat the clock, skip ahead, level up, and play to win! You’ll need to bring your A-game for this BKC. Twists & Turns is a fantastical celebration of games of all kinds. Life is not all fun and games – even after becoming a Christian.  It is full of twists and turns that can leave us feeling like we’ve taken one step forward and two steps back.  That was certainly the case for Peter.  He messed up; he stumbled; he wasn’t perfect.  But even when Peter messed up, it wasn’t “game over.”  God still worked through Peter.  As kids study five of Peter’s encounters with Jesus, they’ll discover that Jesus is holy, trustworthy, forgiving, worth following and for everyone. Our key Bible verse throughout BKC is Psalm 25:4: “Make your ways known to me, Lord, teach me your paths.”

Below you’ll find the key point of each day.
Day 1   PETER FOLLOWS JESUS
Day 2   PETER WALKED TO JESUS ON THE WATER
Day 3   PETER DENIED JESUS AND WAS RESTORED
Day 4   PETER SPOKE BOLDLY ABOUT JESUS
Day 5   PETER TOLD CORNEILIUS ABOUT JESUS
