The purpose of the children and youth ministries, consisting of students in preschool, elementary, middle, and high school, is to evangelize this generation with the gospel of Jesus Christ by creating an atmosphere where they can experience God, and to inspire them to let their voices be heard in the kingdom.
This ministry serves as a loving network of support for the emotional and spiritual growth of our children and youth through worship, ministry, evangelism, fellowship, and discipleship. It is to ensure that children are equipped with the Christian principles needed to make Godly choices in their daily lives.
The children will know, love, serve, and become lifelong followers of Jesus. Upon exiting the children’s ministry, children will have a foundational knowledge of the Bible and will be developing a passion to belong, believe, and become resilient disciples of Christ in a world that wants a Kingdom without the King.
Children in our Children’s Ministry group experience worship kid style during Children’s Church consisting of songs with movement, scripture, prayer, classes, crafts, games, giving, snacks, and missions. They engage in service activities inside and outside the church. They are recognized during the month of their birthdays, and their success in school is celebrated.
Young people will feel a sense of belonging as they believe, and grow in their relationship with the Lord, becoming lifelong followers of Christ.
Upon exiting the youth ministry, young people will be Christian disciples, integrated into the life of the church, impacting their families, and the community as they serve, worship, and study God’s word.
