Building Kids Worship Ministries That Last

Helping churches launch and maintain a volunteer-led worship team through training, leadership development, and sustainability that is personalized to each kids environment.

The Process

Launching a Volunteer-Driven Team

Every church is different, so no process ever looks quite the same. Through intentionally learning the environment, seeking leaders, and training them to make the maximum impact, my goal is to launch a team and leave the door open for continual growth after I am gone.

🧠

Learn Your Ministry

Because each church has a unique vision, flow, volunteer force, and environment for worship observation and discussion are essential in order to develop a plan that fits your church.

🎵

Lead & Recruit

On Sunday mornings I will lead the kids in worship and inform volunteers on how they can become a part of the journey and join the worship team.

🤝

Equip Leaders

Through teaching dances, microphone skills, team coordination, and confident leadership, I will equip the volunteers to lead kids in worshiping the Lord.

🌱

Support the Future

After launch, I continue checking in, offering feedback, answering questions, and sometimes providing optional follow-up visits so your ministry can continue to grow.

Real Churches. Real Impact.

Relevant Kids Worship

Relevant Community Church • Elkhorn, Nebraska

At Relevant Community Church I spent two years collaborating with Olivia Goodman, one other highschool co-leader, to run and expand the thriving kids worship team. Through my time at Relevant I truly learned what a successful group looks like and I developed the skills that it takes to lead a efficient team of volunteers.

Each Sunday morning I would help to lead worship on stage and throughout the week I would spend my time coordinating volunteers, training new members, and choreographing new dances.

My time at Relevant allowed me to gain experience in running and improving a highly-functioning team and helped me develop the foundation in leadership needed to help other churches build their own teams.

Christ Community Church Kids Worship

Christ Community Church • Omaha, Nebraska

After helping out at CCC's vacation bible school I saw a need for the kids ministry to develop a live kids worship team. Kids had been watching worship videos every week, and I knew that I could help to provide a more enriching environment for the kids.

Through reaching out to the Kids Ministry leader, Bryant Belknap, we developed a four week plan to develop a thriving worship team from scratch. It involved learning the situation, leading worship, recruiting volunteers, equipping leaders, and supporting the future. This process was extremely successful and is how I plan to help other churches.

I volunteered over 40 hours to be there every Sunday and come in outside of church hours in order to film worship videos for reference over years to come and to equip the two new team leads, Anabelle Bradley and Camry Coler. I was able to create a system that has grown exponentially since then and is still thriving.

Working with Gage has been a huge blessing for our kids ministry. After leading worship at our large Summer U event, he reached out because he had a vision for helping us build a healthy worship culture and create a clear pathway for real leaders to lead worship in our classrooms each weekend. He took what was basically a messy hard drive full of worship songs, lyric videos, and dance videos and turned it into an organized, easy-to-use system, even renaming files so everything could be found quickly. He also recruited a couple of dancers and, over the course of just three days, filmed 20 dance videos that we can now send to volunteers ahead of time so they can come prepared to lead with confidence. Gage has a unique ability to create systems that are practical, sustainable, and easy for churches to implement. What I appreciate most, though, is that his drive for excellence never overshadows his heart for worship and his passion to see the next generation know and glorify God. I can’t recommend Gage enough to any church that wants to strengthen its kids worship ministry and build something that will continue making an impact for years to come.

Meet Gage

Hello! I'm Gage Petrick. I spent the first 18 years of my life living in Elkhorn, Nebraska as a part of an active Christian family. I have always had a passion for Jesus, especially in worshiping through sing and dance. In my time in Nebraska I was blessed to be a part of Relevant Community Church, where I ran the worship team for two years and grew my heart for helping kids find Jesus. Now I am a Freshman at the University of Alabama, and I can't wait to make a difference in my new community.

Through serving at both Relevant and Christ Community, I was really able to see that so many churches strive to have the best worship for their kids, but don't know where to start. That's why I created Kids Worship Launch—to work alongside churches and help build worship ministries that last long after I am gone.
