CHILDREN
Investing in the Future
In our Children's Ministry, our mission is to help kids find their way to God, connect with others, and contribute to changing the world. We believe that kids have the capacity to walk intimately with God, and we love to see them learn about Him and connect with Him through Bible stories, songs, and crafts.
Opportunities for Children
During the COVID season we are offering classes for children through 6th grade only during the 11 a.m. service. Youth, 7th to 12th grades, meet during the equipping hour from 9:45 to 10:45 a.m.
Our hope is to return to a full schedule for children in the future.
Calling all children to grow in Jesus!
Our desire is to offer various learning opportunities for children. These have been limited during COVID times. Currently, for preschool through elementary grades, these include age-level classes for children during our second service. Grades seven through twelve meet during the Equipping Hour 9:45 to 10:45 a.m.
CHILDREN'S CLASSES - BIRTH TO SIXTH GRADE 11 a.m.-12 p.m.
You simply need to head to classroom 209 to sign your child in, where our dedicated ministry team of volunteers waits to greet each child and guide them to the appropriate classroom. We are committed to filling that hour with opportunities for your child to dig deep into God's Word for understanding and truth, practice praise and prayer, and explore what being a disciple of Jesus Christ is all about through storytelling, drama, music, and art.
CHILD CARE - BIRTH TO APPROXIMATELY AGE 6 9:45 - 10:45 a.m.
Child care for these younger children is now being offered in room 209 to free up the parents to attend an equipping class. We hope to resume a fuller children's program during this hour in the future.
YOUTH CLASS - FOR SEVENTH THROUGH TWELFTH GRADERS 9:45-10:45 a.m.
Join us every Sunday morning for Bible-based instruction to meet the challenges of living in our modern-day society.
SPECIAL EVENTS - FOR ALL CHILDREN
Throughout the year there are special activities for our children such as Vacation Bible School in June, Easter activities, delivering Thanksgiving baskets to our shut-ins, Love boxes, Pumpkin prayer party, and a Christmas birthday party for Jesus!
PICTURES BELOW are from our 2017 summer Vacation Bible School and an overnight with our older children at our church farm property. Below those pictures is a video with excerpts from VBS 2018.
Shipwrecked: Rescued by Jesus
Enjoy our recap video of VBS 2018. Over 100 children were welcomed and taken on a shipwrecked adventure to an uncharted island where they learned how Jesus can rescue them and carry them through life’s storms.
About Our Children's Ministry
Your children are important to us!
Our Children’s Ministry Team is dedicated to teaching the Word of God to children and making it fun to learn! We have selected and enhanced our children’s curriculum to challenge and engage our children's minds, hearts, and bodies. We want them to want to know the Lord and desire His presence in their lives. Your child will be introduced to God’s Word and learn how to use its wisdom to guide them through their days.
Our mission is to keep the children coming back. Whether it is during Worship or our Equipping Hour, Nursery Care, Little Blessings, Children's Church, or our annual Vacation Bible School, our entire Children’s Ministry team puts their energies into making the experience enjoyable, educational, and spirited!
Our child-centered worship and lessons are presented in a safe, secure, and comfortable environment filled with love.
Our Ministry Coordinators are available to talk with you at any time. Call or email the church office for more info and/or contact information.
