Children's Ministry

Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. 

-Matthew 19:14


The children’s ministry serves infants through fifth graders by helping them to become mature and healthy followers of Christ who worship, love, and glorify God. It’s important to us to be intentional with children in both building relationships with them and teaching them the bible on an age appropriate level. We come alongside parents by equipping and encouraging them.

Training children to worship

Children K4 and up join their families for worship on Sunday mornings. Because our congregation  is used to small children in the service, we strive to offer a gracious atmosphere for families who  are training younger children to worship. We provide several tools to help parents and children. There are tables in the foyer with books and crayons for kids who need a little more wiggle room during the service. You can still see and hear the service. There is a Family Room in the foyer of the Worship Center for parents with babies allowing parents to still be a part of the worship service and attend to their young ones.
