Children’s Ministry
AND THEY WERE BRINGING CHILDREN TO HIM THAT HE MIGHT TOUCH THEM, AND THE DISCIPLES REBUKED THEM. BUT WHEN JESUS SAW IT, HE WAS INDIGNANT AND SAID TO THEM, “LET THE CHILDREN COME TO ME; DO NOT HINDER THEM, FOR TO SUCH BELONGS THE KINGDOM OF GOD. TRULY, I SAY TO YOU, WHOEVER DOES NOT RECEIVE THE KINGDOM OF GOD LIKE A CHILD SHALL NOT ENTER IT.” AND HE TOOK THEM IN HIS ARMS AND BLESSED THEM, LAYING HIS HANDS ON THEM.
MARK 10:14-16
Our Vision for our Children
We want them to…
become men and women of faith
love the Word and learn to live by it
have a faith that will help them stand in hard times
become parents who know how to lead their children to Christ
have a God-centered view of themselves and the world around them
We want them to have these things in the hope that they will…
belong wholly to the Lord
serve him with all their might
glorify him in all that they do
spread that glory to future generations
That’s our vision, here is where we implement it:
Nursery Care: We provide attentive loving, attentive nursery care for infants through age two for virtually all church events.
Sunday School: We offer Sunday school for children ages 3 through 5th grade. Our focus is on teaching God's Word at a level that is suitable for the age and geared to excite and intrigue young learners. Sunday School meets at 9:45.
Children’s Church: During the school year, we offer a children’s service for kids 5th grade and under during the 11:00 worship service.
Sunday Evening Program: We offer a program of teaching, music, and fun for kids ages 3 through 5th grade, meeting at 6pm Sundays during the school year.
Vacation Bible School: We set aside a week every year for VBS to make sure that every child hears the gospel and has opportunity to respond.
