A Ministry Built for Preteens

A preteen ministry can be a very powerful place for upper-elementary kids to grow in their faith and be stretched a little more than they ever have before.

Preteens think differently, act differently, relate differently, and learn differently. Spiritually they’re ready for something deeper than children’s ministry but aren’t quite ready to be exposed to some of the tough truths of youth ministry. Preteens need a place where people understand their unique needs and cater ministry to their abilities.

They need a ministry that helps them transition from children’s ministry to junior high ministry— not in a one-time event, but in a two-year transitional period. They need leaders who structure ministry that builds a bridge to the next step of their lives and faith journeys.

Checking In to FIVE 6

DRAFT Preteens check in through the same RCC Kids system. The flow below is a proposed model (E91 + Venture) — the live site has no check-in details. Confirm RCC’s real process before this goes live.

01

Pre-register online

New here? Fill out a quick form before you arrive so your family is already in the system — then just scan in at the kiosk. Saves you time at your first visit.

02

Check in at the kiosk

Our kiosks open before each service. You’ll get a name tag for your preteen and a matching security tag for you — no one is released without it.

03

Relax — we’ll text you

Head into worship knowing your preteen is cared for. If they need you, we’ll text your phone or show your tag number on screen so you can step out.

DRAFTPre-register your preteen — skip the line on your first Sunday. This will connect to Planning Center; for now it points to the Connect Card.
