Children's Ministries

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
                      Deut. 6:5-7

All children who are four (as of Sept. 1, 2007) or five years old, or attending kindergarten are welcome to come to the Worship Center to learn how to worship, the meaning behind each element of worship, and ways we can respond to worship.

Children in God's House

We use creative ways to incorporate children into worship in the sanctuary. Praise Packs are available in the back of the sanctuary.

WalkWithMeSunday School

All children three years old (as of September 1, 2007) are encouraged to attend church school from 10:10 a.m. to 11:05 a.m. on Sunday mornings. We use the "Walk with Me" curriculum that challenges children to respond with their hearts and lives, to live their faith, and to make a personal commitment to Christ. Church school classes offer Christian education as well as opportunities to develop friendships with Christian peers in our church community.
