The Foundations Kids program happens Sundays mornings for kids ages 6 months - 5th Grade. See below for what is offered during each Gathering.

November:

9am- classes for children 6 months through kindergarten

11am- classes for children 6 months through 5th grade

December:

9am- classes for children 6 months through age 2

11am-classes for children 6 months through 5th grade


Each child will have an opportunity to hear an age appropriate lesson, sing songs, and have an all around good time in a safe, caring environment each week.

Each adult serving in Foundations has undergone a full background check and a check-in process is in place to make sure all kids are secured and accounted for. If you are planning a visit and have any further questions, please contact Amy Adelsberger at amy@riverbendonline.org.

Introducing our New Foundations Ministry Coordinator

Amy Adelsberger

Amy and her husband Lance grew up in the Lehigh Valley and moved back to the area in 2022. She is a homeschooling mom of 3 with a background in Elementary Education. She has a heart to share Jesus with children and we cannot wait to have her as a part of our team!

Get to know Amy!

  1. Favorite movie-Legally Blonde

  2. Favorite Starbucks drink-Grande cold brew with toffee nut syrup!

  3. Favorite Bible Story-In Luke 10, Mary reminds me to keep my heart fully focused on Jesus, meditating on His Word, and listening to His voice instead of getting distracted by the busyness of the world around me.

  4. How did you find Riverbend and what has your experience been? Chris and Becky Bennett invited us to attend Riverbend when we moved back to the Lehigh Valley. Everyone was so friendly and welcomed us with open arms. My family and I felt at home and we are blessed to have a church family who displays the love of Christ in tangible ways.

  5. What led you to apply for the kids ministry position? The Lord started to prepare my heart for ministry way back in 2018. I had been praying that the right opportunity would open up for me to share my love for Jesus with children. When the job position was available, I knew I had to follow God’s plan for my life and apply.
