Young Adults

We believe that as the Bible says:

"Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he shall not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6.

We also believe that as we train the children in a Christian environment that the Lord will help us succeed in reaching the goals and needs of the whole child. The Children’s Ministry offers relevant Bible studies, as well as many other fun and educational activities and programs which emphasize “God-focused truth, taught creatively and memorably.”

Warm and dedicated teachers will greet your children every Sunday and Wednesday. Our leaders bring out the best in children as they guide and encourage. Their priority is to build up your kids with the love of God and lead them to a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ.

Nursery & Pre-school

The goals of our Nursery - Beginners classes is to provide loving, thoughtful care for each child. We seek to provide a nurturing, trusting, safe, and clean environment so that the parents are free to worship freely without concern for the welfare of their child. We seek to help point each child to the Lord Jesus so as they mature they will come to trust Christ as their personal Savior. The children ages 2-3 are taught a Bible story in each service in an effort to introduce them to the Lord Jesus and His love for them.

All of our volunteers must pass a background screening before they are able to serve. We also provide a training manual they must read and they receive training when they begin to serve. Our volunteers love the Lord Jesus and they love little children.

Sunday School & Children's Church

Sunday School - Using an age/class graded organizational structure, each group uses a carefully chosen curriculum that is appropriately geared for them. Use the drive-through office entrance on the south side of the complex to find all children's classes. The Sunday School hour begins at 9:00 AM every Sunday morning.

Our classes include:

Nursery
2 & 3 year olds
4 & 5 year olds
1 – 3 grade girls
1 – 3 grade boys
4 – 6 grade girls
4 – 6 grade boys

Children's Church - During the adult worship service each Sunday morning at 10:30, we provide an exciting Children’s Church program where children sing songs, hear stories about missionaries all around the world, watch puppet shows, and most importantly, learn about God.

Children’s church is for children 4 years old through the 6th grade. The program is split into two separate groups. Both groups meet in the Children’s wing immediately following the Sunday School hour.

Children's Choir

It is a joy to see our children singing praises to the Lord, and we want them to discover and use the creative gifts God has given them. Our children's choir is open to all children from 1st grade through 6th grade. The choir participates in our worship services several times each year. The children are also able to sing each week during our Children's Church and Wednesday Bible Club programs.

In addition to singing, the children have the opportunity to perform in two plays each year: one during the Christmas season and one in the spring. Participating in the plays gives our kids a chance to act and sing and also encourages them to participate in our services and share Godly principles from God's Word.

AWANA

Please join us Wednesday nights at 6:30 pm for Awana.

The mission of Awana is to reach kids and equip leaders to change the world by knowing, loving, and serving Jesus Christ.

Our Awana program is designed for children ages 3-12 (Cubbies, Sparks, and T&T).

The Awana Club is every Wednesday night at 6:30pm-8:15pm. Our time together begins with opening exercises in the gym and ends with the awards ceremony in the auditorium at 8:00pm. The time is divided up into Large Group Time (Singing and Teaching), Small Group Time (Discussion and Memorization), and Game Time (Fun, Fun, Fun). The children who attend Awana enjoy their time in club and are growing to know, love, and serve Christ.
