Nurturing Faith

Children's Ministry

Helping kids discover God's love through fun, fellowship, and faith-filled learning.

Sunday Wednesday Special Programs

Sunday Children's Classes

During the 8:00 AM & 9:30 AM Worship Services

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.
