"Growing in Faith Together"

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."

Matthew 19:14

Welcome to the Preschool and Children’s Ministry at First Baptist Long Beach! We’re so glad you’re here. Our mission is to help every child know Christ and learn how to live out God’s Word in their everyday life.

We believe that spiritual growth happens best in partnership with families, so we’re here to support and encourage parents as you lead your children in faith.

Each week, your child will be cared for and taught by loving, trained leaders who are passionate about helping kids grow the way Jesus grew — spiritually, socially, physically, mentally, and emotionally (Luke 2:52).

All of our teachers complete a background check and training to ensure a safe and nurturing environment.

If you’d like to learn more about our Preschool and Children’s Ministry, please contact us anytime — we’d love to connect with you!

Preschool (Birth - Kindergarten)

At First Baptist Long Beach, we provide quality teaching and loving guidance every time a child comes to church. Each class offers age-appropriate learning experiences designed to help children grow in their understanding of God’s love.
Our classes are age-graded based on school district guidelines to ensure the best learning environment. For example, if a child is 2 years old by September 1, they will be placed in the 2-year-old class.
Your child’s safety is our top priority. Our preschool area is protected by a secure check-in system, giving parents peace of mind while children enjoy a safe, caring space to learn about God.
We also have policies to help keep our preschool area safe.  Please click the button below for our “Procedures and Policies”

Children (1st - 6th Grade)

The Children’s Ministry at First Baptist Long Beach offers a variety of fun and meaningful activities each week and throughout the year. Our goal is to help kids grow in their faith and discover God’s love in a safe, encouraging environment.
Our Sunday School classes are grouped by school grade to provide age-appropriate Bible teaching and interaction. Kid’s Club brings all grades together for exciting activities, worship, and discipleship. For children who are homeschooled, we recommend placement based on the grade closest to their age.
Every lesson and activity is designed to help children understand who God is, how much He loves them, and His plan for their lives—including the wonderful truth that Jesus is their Savior.
