KIDSMINISTRY
Christ-Centered Kids Ministry
In our Kids Ministry, our mission is to join parents in teaching their children the gospel of Jesus Christ and to assist parents in training their children to worship corporately as part of the church family. We seek to provide a safe, age-appropriate, and engaging environment for children to personally come to know and experience Christ's love for them.
Three Kids Programs
The first kids programming is during the Equipping the Saints time on Sunday morning. This program is from 9-10 am. There is large group teaching time and small group breakouts. The curriculum is Gospel Project, which works through the Bible in three years chronologically, pointing kids to Jesus in every lesson.
The second kids programming is during the worship service. Kids stay with their parents during the singing portion and are dismissed during the preaching time. This optional program also takes advantage of the Gospel Project curriculum and incorporates other aspects during this time.
The third is our Explorers mid-week program, which runs for a number of weeks during the fall and spring semesters. This takes place on Wednesday evenings from 6:30-7:30pm.
Our goal in programming is to partner with parents and to provide content that points kids to Christ. We don't merely want to teach them the morals of Scripture but to point them to the good news of Jesus Christ.
"...bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord."
Ephesians 6:4b
Who's Involved?
Every Sunday morning we provide a safe environment for kids from birth through fifth grade where they can learn about Jesus and connect with each other.
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our ministry, and it’s an honor to serve with each and every one of them as they love on kids each week! Every volunteer who leads in the Kids Ministry has had a background check and is committed to making the ministry a safe, Biblically relevant, and fun environment for your kids.
"Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court."
Psalms 127:3-5
How does check-in work?
Each Sunday, you will need to check your child into our Kids Ministry. There is a check-in table in the community room right next to the kids ministry areas. Parents will fill out a visitor form for the back of the visitor name tags that includes the child's name as well as information regarding specific allergies. Parents will be given a pick-up tag. Check-out your child by handing the pick-up tag to the teacher.
Thank you so much for helping us as we strive to make our Kids Ministry a safe environment for your kids to learn about God.

Kids Events
Throughout the year we have events that are geared towards kids and families. These include a yearly Easter egg hunt, End of Summer Celebration, and Fall Fest. This is a tangible way we seek to love our community.
