Our vision is to demonstrate Christlikeness as we teach children to love God and others. It’s a privilege to come alongside families in our church or in our broader community and reinforce what God is already doing in our homes. Our Children Ministry programs welcome kids of all ages, from newborns to grade 6-ers!
Sundays, during Discipleship Time, from 9:30-10:15 a.m., the Nursery is open to look after Kiddos up to 3 years of age so their moms can concentrate during Adult Discipleship. Older children, from 3 years old to Grade 6 receive age-appropriate chronological Bible lessons, to help them learn and grow in following Jesus.
During the morning service on Sundays, from 10:15-11:30 a.m., the Nursery is again open for those who need it. Following corporate worship in song, our kids from 3 years old to Grade 6 are invited to attend Kidz Worship during the remainder of the adult service. Kidz Worship creates an awareness in our children of global missions and other important biblical topics.
Outreach Events Once a month, when kids don’t have school, we hold Fun Fridays for kids from 4 years old to grade 6. Christmas and Easter offer our kids an opportunity to participate in special presentations. On Valentine’s Day we offer Parents’ Night Out with childcare for couples from the community. In the summer we often do DVBS/Kids Camp.
Our prayer and goal is that children decide to follow and do what Jesus says, demonstrating an understanding of what they’ve been taught, motivation to bring a friend, excitement about coming, a feeling of being welcomed and loved, and enjoyment of learning and sharing with others about Jesus.

We are pleased to be able to offer a special time of worship for children from age 3 to 11 (or grade 6) during the latter part of the Service.
Jeaneth Maxwell and her team are prepared to lead the children in singing and hearing a Bible story time geared for their understanding and application. Children need to be registered by their parents (or whoever brought them). There will be an announcement for the children to dismiss quietly just before the last worship song. Supervised Nursery is also available during the message.
