What is GIG Nights?
GIG Nights is a weekly K-6th Catholic Christian children’s program focused on spiritual development and evangelization. GIG Nights helps children build a solid faith foundation that is focused on a TRUE, DEEP, and PERSONAL relationship with God.
At GIG Nights, we...
Learn
Children who regularly attend GIG nights are fed spiritual enrichment, faith development, and gospel- & sacrament-based lessons. They also get their turn to ask questions and discuss their faith!
Play
Music, games, visuals and constant motion mean that they can get their wiggles out, learn by having FUN, and have unique, exciting God-centered experiences that they’ll remember for a long time.
Pray
At GIG Nights, we guide children towards a real close and personal relationship with God. We learn to quiet our hearts and listen for God's guidance.
Build Community
GIG Nights are for everyone! It's a place to make friends and grow TOGETHER. We are raising LEADERS and you can't age out of GIG Nights- our volunteers program beings at 7th grade!
GIG Nights Philosophy
Our GOD is dynamic, radical, and WAY too big to fit in a box. Our multi-faceted FAITH is rooted in tradition, but is not limited to memorized facts and prayers!
What about sacraments?
GIG Nights is also a sacrament prep program! Our program is designed to prepare kids for 1st reconciliation and 1st communion while still appealing to those too young for sacrament and those who have already recieved their sacraments! We are inclusive to ALL kids! Even non-baptized and non-Catholics are encouarged to attend!
About the Ministry
GIG Ministries was founded by mom and daughter team Jody and Hannah in 2018 at a small-town church in Hesperia, CA. It was built on a shared dream of creating a new type of children's programming that would excite kids to come to church and help them feel like they can take ownership of their own faith. GIG Ministries became a 501(c) (3) non-profit in 2019 and is currently centered out of St. Joan of Arc parish in Victorville, CA. Besides GIG Nights, GIG Ministries has branched out into other facets including a music program called GIG Choir, a VBS style program called GIG Summer, and other community outreach events such as Hospitality Breakfast and one-day children's events.
