Backyard Bible Club

Sharing The Gospel In Every Neighborhood

We want to share the truth of Jesus Christ throughout Kingsburg! Join us on mission together through Backyard Bible Clubs this summer. Scroll down to learn more!

Our Vision

To empower people to reach their neighborhoods and friends with the gospel right in their own backyard. Personal relationships and personal invitations spark opportunities to come alongside families in their relationships with Jesus as kids enjoy games, crafts, snacks, songs, and Bible lessons in a 3-day club for 4-12 year-olds.

The Heart and Hows

Look below for more information on how to be a part of Backyard Bible Club this summer!

Timeline

The Backyard Bible Club Team gives out the kits to each club in early July every summer. Clubs can take place at any time in multiple ways! Each club is provided with 3 days (2 hrs each) worth of supplies and curriculum. Clubs can choose any 3 days in a row, 3 Fridays days in a row, etc. to host their club through August.

Our hope is to make this as flexible to the servants who give God their “yes!”
