First Grade Bible Presentation
ROBC has a long-time custom of presenting new Bibles to 1st graders during September of a new school year. In 2020, due to COVID-19, we were unable to adhere to this custom. Now that we are back in on-campus Bible Study and worship, we will present new Bibles to the following 1st Graders:
CarMichael Kyle
Heather & Parrish Kyle, parents
Benton Leibe
Cheyanne & Brandt Leibe, parents
Holt Stanton
Katie & Bobby Stanton, parents
We are so proud of these boys, who are all 1st graders at ROBS!

RightNow Media Launch
We have officially launched our RightNow Media churchwide account and I am excited to share it with you all! RightNow Media has been dubbed the “Netflix of Bible Studies” and I can say it probably has more content than Netflix does!
In order to utilize this service you have to create an account here: RightNow Media Sign Up. This link was sent out Sunday but I am providing it here in case you did not receive it! Currently we have a children’s Bible studies tab and will add a “Staff Picks” section in the future. But please do not wait to jump in and explore all of the content available!
Please email me at cjohns@robc.org if you have any questions or issues getting into the site!

Minister to Youth/Students
ROBC Children's Ministry
Welcome to the children’s ministry at River Oaks Baptist Church! We are a loving church that welcomes all children with wide, open arms. One of the goals of our ministry is to plant the love and word of God in the hearts of every child. As we walk alongside them in discipleship and prayer, our goal is for all of our students to make Jesus their Lord and Savior, choosing to one day participate in believer’s baptism. We work towards this goal by using tools such as interactive and fun-filled Bible lessons in our Children's Church and Sunday School classes, choir and other seasonal activities.
"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:6
Annual Children's Events
Valentine's Day Party
In mid-February, the children made Valentine crafts in various stations during our Valentine party. The children had fun as they participated in crafts, games, lessons, and a story-telling time that taught us of the love of Jesus. It was a wonderful time!
Easter Brunch and Egg Hunt
The Saturday before Easter Sunday is when families come for brunch and fellowship time. During our beautiful weather in April, we eat in the courtyard outside the Commons Dining room. Afterwards, the children gather to hear the story of Easter, with books and visuals to help teach the message. Then we hunt for eggs on the playground!

Christmas Party
One Sunday morning in December we organize a fun, and Christ centered party for the kids. A craft project is provided for them to make that coincides with the Christmas message, and then follows with a pizza lunch and yummy Christmas treats!
