Your child’s faith journey is important to us and we want to be here to guide them along the way.
We offer a wide variety of activities for you and your child (ages 0 to fifth grade) to grow together in faith each week and throughout the year. To stay up-to-date on our Children's Ministry activities and involvement opportunities, you can click the button below to sign up for email updates!
We start the Sunday school hour with a lively gathering time where we sing, share and hear the lesson for the hour. We follow a rotation curriculum that teaches one major Bible story at a time by rotating classes through a variety of creative workshops. This way of learning allows the children to explore their interests and talents. All the volunteers leading the classes model the accepting love of Christ as children learn and play together.

Children are welcome to stay with their parents during the entire service however we do offer Sunday School for children ages 4 through 5th grade immediately following the children's sermon during the 11 am service.
