The vision of our children’s ministry is to teach kids to love Jesus, to love God’s Word, and to love others!

9:00 a.m. Sunday Morning: Discipleship Classes

These classes are offered during the fall and spring semester and take a break during the summer months..  Children’s classes include:

• Nursery: Birth to age 3.5 years.  Please let us know if you are coming for the 9a.m.hour so we can have enough workers.  Send an email to Pastor Steve below.
• PreK to 2nd Grade: Kids will be learning from a lesson series called: Knowing God through Creation.  Attributes of God are discovered as kids walk through the days of Creation.  Continuing through the account of Genesis 3 kids see God’s great plan to send a Savior to rescue us from sin, and learn this is is fulfilled in Jesus.  
• 3rd to 6th Grade: Kids will be learning from a lesson series called The Greatest Journey. This is the same material that Samaritan’s Purse puts in their Operation Christmas Child boxes distributed all over the world.  The curriculum begins with a review of the gospel and continues with other topics like: Creation, Honoring God, Helping Others, Heaven, and many more.

These classes wrap up around 10:00 a.m.  Afterwards enjoy some coffee and donuts and time to meet or catch up with others in the Multi-function room.  

10:30 a.m. Sunday Morning: Nursery and Children’s Church 

We offer a Nursery and Children’s Church program during the worship service.  When you arrive one of our Welcome Team Members will help you check-in your children in the lobby.  The Nursery is open for drop-off 10-minutes before the service begins.  Older children, PreK to 6th grade, will stay with their parents in the sanctuary for the first 20-minutes of the service for the welcome and singing praise and worship together.  Kids PreK through 5th grade are then dismissed to Children’s Church located in our large multifunction room downstairs. 

Children’s Church begins with music and a large group review of the previous week’s lesson.  Kids are then split up into age-graded classes for a Bible lesson, activities, crafts, and games.  After the service parents pick up children at their classroom. 

First Time Visitors

If your children are visiting for the first time please reach out and let us know by e-mailing Pastor Steve below.  You are welcome to arrive about 10-minutes early so we can meet you and show you and your children the classrooms.  Please let us know of any special needs or allergies.  

What We Are Studying

• Children’s Church  

“The Gospel Project” – This curriculum offers a comprehensive survey of both the Old and New Testaments over a 3-year period.  Each lesson reinforces the greater story of the Bible to reveal God’s plan of salvation through His Son Jesus.  

Kids are sent home with a lesson summary page for parents to review with them during the week.  Let us know if you would like to be on our monthly children’s church e-mail to for home discipleship resources.
