We're the Sunshine Band — where children ages 1–12 discover that Jesus is the Light of the World, one song, one story, and one smile at a time.
The Sunshine Band is the Church of God in Christ's beloved ministry for our littlest saints — children ages 1 to 12. Here in the Texas Southwest First Jurisdiction, we gather our children to learn God's Word, lift their voices in praise, make joyful crafts, and grow friendships that glow. Every child is a sunbeam, and together we make one bright light for Christ.
From Bible discovery to bounce houses, everything we do helps children fall in love with Jesus — and have a whole lot of fun doing it.
Age-perfect lessons, scripture memory, and stories that plant God's Word deep in little hearts.
This little light of mine! We sing, clap, and praise — learning that worship is joy out loud.
Face painting, balloon art, and hands-on crafts that turn every lesson into something they can hold.
Bounce houses, train rides, games, and fellowship — celebrations the whole church family loves.
Capes on, masks up! Our Sunshine Superheroes learn that real power comes from above — the courage to be kind, the strength to tell the truth, and the boldness to let their light shine anywhere. Faith is their superpower.
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
God has blessed the Texas Southwest First Jurisdiction with leaders who pour love, prayer, and sunshine into every child.
Leading our Sunshine Band with joy and vision, Sis. Cornell makes sure every child knows they are loved by God — and by their church family.
