Children

Building Christ-centered relationships that last forever.

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me.” (Mt 19:14) Our children’s ministry is designed to bring children to Jesus, to introduce them to His love for them, and to teach them His word. We seek to provide children with high-energy learning experiences that engage the whole child. Using age-appropriate materials and activities, led by trained volunteers who love children, we create a safe and fun learning environment where kids can learn to love the Lord and His word.

Infants & Preschool

Infants & Preschool

Our Sunday morning Preschool (Infants-Pre-K 4) program helps build a foundation for faith into kids’ lives. Whether singing to babies or engaging preschoolers in high energy learning activities, you’ll find us teaching basic Bible truths every child should know:

  • God created me.
  • God loves me.
  • And Jesus wants to be my friend forever.

Safety is important to us, so we work hard to provide a secure and fun environment for our children.
