Children's Ministry

Focusing Kid’s On Christ

Looking for a place to bring your children where they can be encouraged, challenged, and loved? Our children's workers, volunteers and program ministries were created to help families in the church and community grow and mature in Christ.

 
Children are Awesome
And we enjoy our moments and ministries to them and their family. We cherish every moment we have to minister to the children. We love taking the time to get to know each of them personally.
 
Connect Sports
Connect sports is our yearly basketball program that runs from October to February. Children participating in this program learn how to compete in the game of Basketball while at the same time learning what it means to win and to lose. Children are taught a Scripture lesson at each practice and before each game. Each season consist of 8 Games that end on Championship Saturday.

Vacation Bible School is an exciting annual event. This is an opportunity for children who are 4 years old up to those who are completing the 6th grade to have fun while learning about God's grace and music they'll be singing throughout the summer months! The leaders are always looking forward to this week of fun and excitement.
 
Camps/Retreats
Seasonal and annual camps and retreats are exciting events we continue to plan. Be sure to check the calendar often to make sure you are aware of the events planned for your children. Our Children's Minister always has an exciting line up planned to keep your child interested in spiritual growth... all while having lots of fun.
RAs/GAs/Mission Friends
Each Wednesday Night our Children meet for RA's, GA's, and Mission Friends. These classes are designed to teach children the Bible while at the same time teaching them about Missions in different parts of world. Girls do projects each week that include cooking and various other things that reinforce the teaching that they are using. RA's or Royal ambassadors do things that boys like to do such as learn to set up tents, build race cars, and various other projects. They also learn about missions as part of their weekly lesson. Our Mission Friend's (Preschool/Kindergarten) work with the RA's and GA's and have age appropriate lessons that revolve around Scripture and Missions.
