Children’s Ministry
Building your child’s strong faith foundation can be tough – but we are here to help!
Our children’s ministry partners with families to help grow and nurture the faith of your child through all the stages of their life.
We believe teaching your child about Jesus in a fun, hands on learning active way allows them to see God in action each week. We stress missions throughout the year where they can make a difference in the lives of others, and together with our Children’s ministry team the Bible stories they read are not just accounts of the past, but can be applied to their lives today!
It is a joy for children, youth and adults alike, and we invite you and your family to join us in one of our Christian Education Programs offered throughout the year!
