Children's Ministry

Children's Ministry is a vital part in growing the church of Jesus Christ. We change our world by impacting young lives to honor, serve and share the news about the God that created them with a purpose. Our mission is to provide opportunities for children to “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 3:18

We implement that mission through these goals: to teach God’s word in fresh, exciting ways using a variety of teaching methods, events, and multi-media; to give kids the opportunity to worship God with their whole heart as an expression of their love for Him; and to put our relationship with God into action through serving one another.

Here’s where it all happens for kids!

Sunday Morning Ministry

Nursery Ministry – Infants through preschoolers play and interact in a loving and nurturing environment.  Bible time teaches the basics of God's Word to 2 and 3 year-olds.  Parent/child and nursing mothers' rooms are also available.

Critterland - Preschool Ministry - Curriculum includes Bible story, crafts, songtime, puppets and other activities designed to reinforce the lesson each week.

KIDventure (K to 1st Grade) & JAMtime (2nd to 5th Grade) - School-aged ministry includes small and large group time, worship, drama, games and a variety of other methods to present God's Word in a relevant and kid-friendly atmosphere.  Kids will be challenged weekly to move to the next level in their relationship with God.
