Welcome to Rise Kids
RiseKids exists to serve the children and families of Rise Community Church by helping them build Christ-centered, spiritually empowered, and socially responsible lives. Our mission is to partner with parents in teaching children to know and love God, to live by His Word, and to experience Him in a safe, nurturing, and joy-filled environment. Each child is encouraged to grow in faith through worship, Bible teaching, and meaningful relationships with peers and leaders who model Christ’s love.

Our Story
Demonstrated by living our core values: compassion, growth, courage to act, responsibility, belonging, curiosity. You can see them cultivated in every experience for students, families and staff.
Community is everything. It’s who we are and how things get done. Everyone here is motivated by a deep commitment to making sure each child and family feels welcome and included. When everyone feels like they belong, we are stronger and smarter together. We’re a community driven to make the world a better place—starting in our own backyard.
