Kickoff Sunday isn’t just about jerseys, food trucks, and fun—it’s also the launch of our brand-new Virginia Beach Campus, the start of Groups Launch Sunday, and a powerful Baptism Sunday across all campuses.

What is
Kickoff Sunday?
Football season is finally back, and we’re celebrating in a big way!
After both services, enjoy food trucks, games, and music outside. It’s the perfect time to invite friends, connect with others, and celebrate all that God is doing through our church.
But this Sunday is about more than just fun. Groups Launch is your chance to find what you’ve really been looking for: a place to belong. Whether you’re new to Waters Edge, not yet in a Group, or looking for deeper connection, we’ll help you discover a Group where you can experience real community, meaningful care, and spiritual growth.
And to top it off, we’ll celebrate life change through baptism—one of our favorite Sundays of the year.
Don’t miss this chance to kick off the season, launch into community, and celebrate what God is doing at Waters Edge Church!

At Waters Edge, we’re all about creating age-appropriate environments that your kids will absolutely love! We make it easy and fun for them to learn about God, so that the message sticks in a real and practical way. While you attend the service, kids will attend one of three environments. The safety of your kids is our number one priority. Our volunteers are carefully trained and have passed a comprehensive background check, and our computerized check-in system with exclusive security tags ensures the safety of your children.
We encourage you to continue teaching your kids about Jesus using Waters Edge Kids Online Resources.
