KiDs Beach Club® Builds Promising Connections at the 2026 Children’s Pastors Conference

This month, Brian Broussard (Vice President of National Expansion), Tina Kimbro (Southeast Mobilization Coordinator), and Gricelda Wells (Serve Team Specialist), shared the mission of KiDs Beach Club® at the Children's Pastors Conference in Orlando, Florida. This annual gathering brings together children’s ministry leaders from across the nation to share ideas, learn from one another, and explore new ways to reach kids with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For our team, it was the perfect platform to connect churches with their local communities through Beach Clubs®.

Sharing the Vision

Tina Kimbro, our Southeast Mobilization Coordinator, shared her excitement: “My spirit was moved with excitement as I interacted with so many young ministers, eager to gather new and innovative ideas for reaching their communities for Christ. I am excited to know that the future of Children’s Ministry is in such good and faithful hands, as God continues to kindle a deep desire in their hearts to take the Gospel to the hearing and hearts of children.”

During the conference, Tina and our team engaged in meaningful conversations with ministry leaders who were eager to make an eternal impact on the lives of kids in their communities. Many church leaders were amazed to learn that the opportunity to establish Bible clubs on school campuses existed. Tina recalled, “What a blessing it was to see their excitement in learning that God has prepared a way. KiDs Beach Club has a proven turn-key approach to helping them build a Great Commission bridge from their church to an elementary school of their choice in their community. We committed to do everything necessary to assist them in growing the Kingdom and growing their church through their Beach Club efforts.”

Expanding Promising Connections

Throughout the three-day event, our team connected with church leaders from a wide variety of denominations and sizes. These conversations were more than just introductions—they were the beginnings of promising partnerships with the potential to transform lives. Many leaders expressed immediate interest in launching Beach Clubs® in their communities, and others were inspired to explore how this ministry could serve as a bridge between their church and the children and families in their schools.

Looking Ahead

The connections made at CPC 2026 have energized our team and reaffirmed our mission. Each conversation represents a new opportunity for children to encounter the love of Jesus, and for churches to expand their impact through Beach Clubs®. As KiDs Beach Club® continues to grow across the country, we are committed to equipping, supporting, and walking alongside churches in their mission to reach children where they are.

Faith in Action: Louis Zamperini

You may not immediately recognize the name Louis Zamperini, but you have likely heard of him. Louis was an outstanding runner, earning a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team in the 1936 Olympics (Berlin). Later, with World War II raging, he enlisted in the Army in 1941, but a plane he was in was shot down over the ocean near the Marshall Islands.
 
For 47 days, Louis drifted in the ocean on a life raft, fighting off sharks and eating any fish or birds he could catch. His rescue came at the hands of a Japanese warship, and he was taken prisoner of war and was gruesomely tortured for years.
 
When the war ended, Louis suffered from post-traumatic stress and terrible nightmares, falling into a deep depression and alcoholism. In 1949, even though he didn’t want to go, his wife took him to a Billy Graham crusade, where the message of Christ’s forgiveness gripped his heart and he gave his life to Jesus.
 
Experiencing God’s amazing forgiveness for himself, Louis went back to Japan and forgave the prison guards who mercilessly tortured him. He lived the remainder of his life as a faithful follower of Jesus Christ. Louis Zamperini’s life is chronicled in the book, and major motion picture, Unbroken.
 
Louis’ life of faith in action came later in his adult years. But KiDs Beach Club® knows that in today’s world, the best opportunity for someone to accept Jesus as their Forever Friend is in their pre-teen years.
 
As a KBC GEM (Gives Every Month), you can help empower our mission to reach children and their families with the good news of Jesus Christ by providing the stable, monthly support that enables lives to be changed forever.

A Beautiful Display of Generosity: How One Student Sparked a Wave of Giving

Nov 19 2:07 PM
Nov 19 2:07 PM

What a beautiful display of generosity we witnessed this fall.

In October, Allison, a KiDs Beach Club® elementary student, felt a stirring in her heart to make a difference. She didn’t wait for a big opportunity. Instead, she used what she had and turned it into something meaningful. Allison decided to sell suckers at school and donate half of the proceeds to KiDs Beach Club®.

Later that month, we received her donation of $46, along with a powerful reminder that God often uses the smallest acts to spark the biggest impact. Her heart to give immediately inspired several of our staff members to match her gift, and since then, even more people have stepped forward to join in.

Allison’s generosity reflects exactly what happens every week in Beach Club®. Kids learn how to put their faith into action, live generously, and shine the light of Jesus wherever they go. We also want to celebrate her club leaders who model these values so faithfully. Their investment is helping children like Allison understand that they can make a difference right now, right where they are.

Stories like this remind us that generosity is contagious. When one child steps out in faith, others are encouraged to follow. When a volunteer pours into a student, that student pours into the world around them. This is the heart of KiDs Beach Club®.

If you would like to join in and match Allison’s gift, you can do so at kidsbeachclub.org/donate.

Thank you, Allison, for lighting the way and showing us what faith in action looks like!

KBC GEM — God Makes It Work

Nov 19 2:03 PM
Nov 19 2:03 PM

In a recent Beach Club® in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, the regular Club leader was feeling ill. He put out a call to see if anyone could step in and lead the Bible story in his absence, and a volunteer raised a hand!

On a few hours' notice, this ‘substitute’ Bible story leader taught the story of the Good Samaritan, telling the children about how God wants us to show everyone love, kindness and compassion. At the end of the lesson, using the David Burton Ministries (a KBC ministry partner) “Hand-to-Hand Evangelism™” tool, the volunteer presented the Gospel. To the glory of God, FIVE children raised their hands to say they had asked Jesus to be their forever friend!

The KiDs Beach Club® teaching model is tried and true! The curriculum is effective, having been honed and refined over two decades to reach children on their level of understanding. Regardless of whether it’s a seasoned KBC volunteer who has taught Bible lessons for years, or simply a willing volunteer who steps up to say, “I’ll lead a lesson,” GOD MAKES IT WORK because His Holy Spirit is actively speaking to these precious children’s hearts through His powerful Word!

Your faithful monthly gift to KBC is what makes this all possible!

Donors who Give Every Month (KBC GEMs) provide the backbone of support we need to share Jesus with countless children every year. In just 2025 so far, more than 500 children have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior! Would you please join us as a ministry partner by signing up to give to KBC monthly?
