Join A Ministry Team
Children's Sunday School MinistryEach week from September to June, children are invited to share in God's love. We spend our time focusing on a bible story and then engaging in an activity or craft that helps the children make a connection to it. We often play games, say prayers, and sing songs, but most of all, we get to build a relationship with God. The children also work together to interact with the community. We all have fun learning how Jesus walks beside us and is present in our daily lives.

Outside of regular youth group meetings, the youth also gather for special events, fundraising/volunteer opportunities, annual retreats, and are welcome to participate in all aspects of the life of the church. .
