Christian Service Brigade (for boys)

Dads & Sons (grades 1-6) Growing with God and One Another

Looking for ways to help your son get excited about following Jesus?

The Christian Service Brigade (CSB) Program of Covenant Life Church provides an active setting where fathers and sons (grades 1-6) can deepen their relationship with each other and with God. Along with fun and games, boys participate in a variety of scouting-like activities that help them grow physically, mentally, socially and spiritually.

The success of the program depends on fathers participating actively by spending time with their sons as well as by serving in other capacities during events. Sons of single moms are also encouraged to participate, with leadership provided by a “big brother” or by other fathers in the program.

CSB meets twice a month on Monday nights. Grouped by age in “posts” like the "Wolverines" or "Fighting Falcons," boys work on achievements, listen to a brief teaching, meet with their dads for one-on-one application, and play large-group games. CSB also offers monthly activities on Saturdays including hikes, campouts, bike trips, visits to historic sites, pool parties, and service projects. Every winter boys and dads compete in the Shape ‘n Race Derby (or equivalent activity).
