NEXUS is the next-generational ministry that comprises Grace Kids (children), R-AGE (youths), and YA (young adults). The vision of NEXUS is seeing the next generation nurtured to be missional disciples through models of faith in every generation in the family of Grace.
NEXUS stands for “a means of connection” and “a focal point,” both of which aptly describe the ministry’s strategy to fulfil our vision based on these three pillars.
With three ministries now under one roof – as represented by the chain of three links forming the letter ‘N’, we can look forward to: Seamless assimilations between ministries, smoother transitions from one life stage into another, and greater synergy in our Christian education curriculum and leadership development.
We believe that every stakeholder in the life of a child to a young adult plays a vital role in teaching and modeling a life of faith in God. As such, we see the value of partnering with parents, family members, peers and other influential figures in the believer’s life to better nurture him or her in the ways of the Lord. This strong inter-connection between the family nucleus, individual believer and church community is represented by the chain links.
The middle red link of the logo represents Jesus Christ and His shed blood on the cross for our sins.
This is the centre of all that we are and do at NEXUS.
The progression from darker to lighter shades represents the transferred lives we desire to see in NEXUS, made possible through the power of the Cross. The cross inspires us to be dedicated missional believers to bring the good news of the cross wherever we are.
Children are precious gifts from God! At Grace Kids, we seek to strengthen the relationship of the children with God through worship, prayer, altar call and fun experiential learning. Through different age-appropriate activities, from weekly craftwork, songs, games, to our annual outreach events and holiday programmes, we aim to nurture our children holistically to love God and to love others. It is our desire to partner with parents and to see each child grow up as a child of God, knowing and experiencing Him personally.
Love children? We want YOU! We are constantly looking for passionate and fun loving individuals to join us in nurturing the next generation. No experience required, just an open and willing heart will do! If you want to experience the joy of seeing the children grow, sign up now by sending an email to Sammi Sihoe at sammi.sihoe@graceaog.org.

The Grace Kids’ programmes are specially tailored to provide each child with a creative worship experience and an engaging time as they learn about God through fun activities.
Every week, the children’s pastor or teachers will conduct master teaching by sharing life-transforming principles from God’s Word. Our Grace Kids will also be engaged in creative activities such as learning stations and games to help them better connect with the lessons.
For some weeks, they will also get to meet their leaders and friends in a smaller, cosier group setting to get to know one another better.
Such small groups provide the platform for our little ones to bond with their leaders and make life-long friendships. Through these discussions, children get to recap what they have learnt during their weekly services and hence further deepen their understanding of the Word of God.
Though young, we believe that our pre-schoolers can sparkle for God! At Sparkle, children get to know about God through engaging bible stories, games and craft work. As the learning styles of the different age groups vary, the children are put into smaller groups of 3- and 4-year-olds, and 5- and 6-year-olds for their lessons.
At Shine, we believe in the potential of our children and encourage them to serve in various areas so that they will develop a missional heart. We help them dig deeper into the Word to build a strong foundation of Christian habits and character to equip them as they face the challenges of their growing up years.
R-AGE is the youth ministry of Grace Assembly of God, and is home to our young people aged 11 to 19 years old.
R-AGE believes in the call of Redeeming A Generation for Eternity. That’s what we stand for. It is a place where redeemed youths redeem youths.
“Let the redeemed of the LORD tell their story…” –Psalm 107:2a
What we do in R-AGE desires to nurture a generation in having a heart that loves God, a mind that knows God, a character that reflects God, and a lifestyle that proclaims God – bringing the love of Christ to impact their communites.
Our home-grown pastoral staff and dedicated lay leaders strive to raise up young people to be more like Jesus, serving one another and reaching out to the ones that are forgotten, lost and wandering in their generation. Our passion is to see young people ministering to young people with God’s love, alongside the journey of their redemption story.
Do not hestitate to contact us or join us at either of our two campuses hosting our weekend services and cell groups. We would love to see you there!
If you are our age, then you have to be a part of R-AGE.
