Pioneer Clubs at Berean Bible Church




We are so excited to begin Pioneer Clubs at Berean Bible Church in Northeast Philadelphia on September 12, 2012!

Pioneer Clubs is a Christ-centered, Bible-based, kid-focused ministry reaching children in our congregation and community with the life-changing message of God's Word.  Kids will uncover new truths about God, others and themselves while exploring nature, learning first aid and discovering what God’s Word means in their lives. 

Pioneer Clubs enables children to develop healthy relationships—with peers, Christian adults, and ultimately enter into and grow in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ—resulting in genuine life-transformation! Weekly Bible study, meaningful Scripture memory, and fun life-skills activities make each meeting memorable and full of variety.  Our program runs September through May on Wednesday nights from 7 to 8:30pm.

We will recognize our club members’ accomplishments by providing Bible awards and activity awards—plus a way to display them.  Earning awards helps children to develop life skills, express their creativity, explore their gifts and abilities and celebrate their achievements.  Skill-building activities introduced through activity awards help children grow as whole persons.  Club members learn a new spectrum of skills, ranging from arts to sports to camping.


Pioneer material is rooted in sound biblical principles as well as an understanding that God’s Word has authority over all aspects of life. The Bible is the core of everything we do and is the tool we use to introduce children to Jesus Christ. We want to help children use, understand, and apply the Bible in daily life.
