Children’s Ministry

Our Children's Ministry is committed to partnering with parents in the spiritual formation of their children.

Luke 2:52 tells us that, “Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.” It is our desire that every child grows up the same way.

• To help kids see Jesus for who He is.
• To help kids see themselves the way God does.
• To help kids love others the way He loves them.

We want kids to see that they are an integral part of God’s Big Story. We want to help them discover the active part they can play in this life-long adventure, to become more like Him.

  Clubhouse is our Nursery & Preschool Ministry

  A place where preschoolers embrace a God who is bigger than their imagination.
  
  Clubhouse is created especially for your infant through preschooler. We know that this age group is learning and growing in amazing ways and we can’t wait to meet them!
  
  We believe in an active, hands-on approach to learning. That means your preschooler can plan on a lot of jumping, singing and laughter every week.
  
  We look forward to helping your preschoolers learn more about God.

  It is our hope that every child will learn these three core truths…

  • God MADE me.
  • God LOVES me.
  • Jesus wants to be my FRIEND forever.

  Clubhouse is offered during both our 9:30 and 11am services.

• Elementary Age

  A place where kids discover a new understanding of how to grow in relationship with Jesus. Our two Sunday morning ministries (Power Up & FX) combine to create a powerful time for children to learn the Word of God. We learn the same Biblical Truth during both services, which gives the children a great opportunity to hear and receive God’s Word into their hearts.

  

  Power Up (9:30 am)

  - the name for our first service small group ministry. The focus of Power Up is our Small Groups. We believe the Bible should never be boring, laughter is good medicine, and good leaders always care. Before kids head off to Middle School, we want them to embrace three main truths …

  • I need to make the wise choice.
  • I can trust God no matter what.
  • I should treat others the way I want to be treated.

  We want kids to see how God’s Word fits into their lives, to learn how to talk to Him and to build friendships that will last.

  

  FX (11:00 am)

  A place where kids, parents and leaders can learn together.

  FX (Family Experience) is a fun, interactive experience filled with active worship, crazy teaching, and live actors. We call it FX because our goal is to partner with parents, and what better way to do this than to have everyone in the same room, learning the same stuff!

  Child Dedication
  We have two Child Dedication Services a year. Once in the Fall and once in the Winter.

  Christians are to recognize everything we have belongs to God (Psalm 127:3-5). The children that are born into our homes belong to Him as well. This dedication is not the salvation of the child, but a public expression and declaration of the fact that they do belong to God, as well as a public declaration by the parents they will seek to do everything in their power, as God gives them wisdom, to see that the child grows up to respect and honor God, and to love and serve Jesus Christ as their Savior. The dedication is more than a ritual. It is a commitment of parents to honor the will and Word of God. We, the church, are here to partner with you in this commitment.

  Baptism
  If your child is interested in Baptism, please contact Pastor Jen as we have baptisms several times throughout the year.
