This ministry exists to provide students in grades 3 through 6 with opportunities to live out their faith and build fellowship with fellow believers in their peer group. We currently meet once a month and we wrap up our school year with a retreat weekend at Camp Hebron.

Sunday School

Our Sunday school time is focused on teaching our children to love, serve, and obey God. We use God centered lessons and focus on not only giving our children head knowledge but challenging them to live out what they are learning.

Church Time Ministries

We have separate church time ministries for our various younger age groups. Our preschool to kindergarten children stay in their classrooms immediately following Sunday school and transition into their church time routine. The 1st – 4th grade students join their parents during the worship time of our morning service and then are dismissed for an age directed church lesson together.

VBS

Our Vacation Bible School program exists for the purposes of a biblical summer program for our church kids and also as an outreach to the community. This is a one week program that includes Bible lessons, music, snacks, crafts and some type of missions focus. This ministry includes ages 4 through 6th grade.

AWANA

Approved Workers Are Not Ashamed; AWANA helps churches and parents work together to develop spiritually strong children and youth who faithfully follow Jesus Christ. Our program meets Wednesday evenings during the school year, and includes children age 2 through 6th grade.

Family Outreach

Each year we host an Easter Celebration outreach and a Fall Festival outreach. Our goal is to reach families in our community by providing an enjoyable family time and presenting the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Day Camp

Day Camp is for children who have completed Kindergarten through 3rd grade. It includes day trips and activities, Bible lesson times, and games. Preregistration is required and there is also a fee to cover the cost of admission to the various day trips.

Family Night Dinners

During the summer we host a monthly family themed dinner. These occur on a Wednesday night during the month. Our annual Pig Roast is included and is held in August. The entire church body is welcome to attend these events.

Prayer Meeting

The 3rd Sunday morning of each month we have a prayer meeting that meets specifically to pray for families and our children's ministries. We meet at 8:30 am prior to Sunday school.
