CHRISTIAN LIFE ASSEMBLY 
CAMP HILL, PA

The CLA Kids Team is excited to partner with you to help your children grow in their relationship with Jesus. They will experience this growth through our Sunday kids' church services and small groups, Wednesday programs, and various opportunities to serve others and grow as leaders.
CLA Kids offers in-person services as part of our Sunday morning worship experience. These services are held at 9:00 and 11:00 AM for kids (birth-grade 5) and are available online. On Wednesday evening, kids continue to grow in their faith through various discipleship programs designed just for them!

CLA Kids Online

For those families who choose to participate online, we want to be sure to provide you with tools to help your kids experience church from home! We encourage you to engage with your kids on the topics being taught. Watch here. Please check out our other resources below to help you talk about possible "next steps" with your kids on their faith journey. And stay connected with us on social media!

What to expect.

Impact Kids

In 2024, we will be launching an exciting new program – Impact Kids! This unique initiative is designed to match an adult volunteer “Buddy” with a child (age 3-grade 5) who needs some extra support during our CLA Kids services. A Buddy will provide one-on-one leadership and attention on a Sunday morning. Interested in learning more about this program or serving as a Buddy? Check out this special message from Pastor David!

Parent Resources

Next Steps

Since some children are too young for baptism, we offer parents an opportunity to publicly declare their intent to raise their child in a way that honors God. In many ways, child dedication is more of a parent dedication. Parents publicly declare that they will raise their child in the faith until they are old enough to make a public statement asking Jesus to be the leader of their life.
