Children's Ministry

Children's Ministry at SCCC

We offer a variety of options for the youngest members of our church family. We want to share the joy of Christ and let every child know that they are loved by an amazing God. We want to show and teach them nothing they do will change the way God loves them. We want them to learn and feel supported as they face life and eternity. We offer a safe setting where all adult leaders have been background checked and trained to work with children. We do our best to make the safety of your child our top priority.

Sunday Children's Classes

Every class has a weekly handpicked curriculum that is age appropriate for their developmental needs. We focus on 12 simple biblical truths that help kids know who they are because of who God is. These truths progress through I am known, I am forgiven, and I am designed for a purpose. We want every child to know and learn the Bible in a way they understand.
