Empowering the Next Generation to Lead, Serve, and Transform

Children’s Ministry (K – 5th Grade)

We believe children are vital participants in the life of the church. Our programs are designed to be interactive, biblical, and—most importantly—fun! Register your child for children’s ministry programming here.

  • Sunday School resumes on Sept. 20th: Meets in Room 107 (Weekday School wing). We focus on building community and exploring God’s Word through discussion and activities.

  • Children’s Worship (10:00 a.m.): Children start in the Sanctuay with their families. After the "Children’s Message" at the altar, those in 4-year-old preschool through 3rd grade are invited to Children’s Worship for age-appropriate lessons and crafts, returning to their parents at the end of the service.

Youth Ministry (6th – 12th Grade)

Our youth ministry is a place where teenagers can be themselves, ask tough questions, and find a community that supports them.

  • Youth Sunday School resumes on Sept. 20th. (10:00 a.m.): * Middle School (6th–8th): Room 201 (Youth Wing)

    • High School (9th–12th): Room 202 (Youth Wing)

  • Youth Group (6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.): Most Sunday evenings, we gather in the Fellowship Hall for games, snacks, and relevant teaching. It’s the perfect way to recharge before the school week begins. Subscribe to our youth communications for our summer schedule as it varies.
