Children

 

 
 
 

Church is a place where kids hear the big story of God's love, and find their place in it.

We provide hands-on lessons that teach the Bible in a safe and engaging learning environment, seeking to foster a place for kids to thrive, including some who are neurodiverse.

We host activities throughout the year that are fun and build encouraging friendships. Below is some of what we do.

Sundays

Ages 0 to preschool We offer nursery supervision that starts at the beginning of the service. All kids are also welcome to stay in the service—whatever parents prefer.

Kindergarten to Fifth Graders join the adults in singing, and then are invited to a time of guided instruction and growth in faith during the sermon. Our curriculum is adapted from Young Children and Worship or Godly Play.

Grade 6 and up are invited to participate in the entire service and become involved in areas of the church life together. Youth are often found running the sound system, playing music, assisting with classes among other roles.

From the physical to psychological, safety is very important to us. There’s always more than one adult with the children, all are required to pass background checks.

Besides Sunday mornings, young kids meet periodically for activities: bike-rides, times at the park, Christmas Pageant, singing. There’s also a summer day camp for kids where they learn about God have a bunch of fun.

 
 

 
 

Events & Activities for Youth

Youth in grades 6 and up meet Wednesday nights. There’s snacks, goofing around, and making friends. We talk about God, the Bible, and being a person.

Youth are also found involved in th life of the church community. They are supported and encouraged to use their gifts and discover their important part in the body of Christ.

For more info contact Pastor Eddy.

“Life isn’t an accumulation of abstractions such as love and truth, sin and salvation, atonement and holiness; life is the realization of details that all connect organically, personally, specifically: names and fingerprints, street numbers and local weather, lamb for supper and a flat tire in the rain. God reveals himself to us not in a metaphysical formulation or a cosmic fireworks display, but in the kind of stories that we use to tell our children who they are and how to grow up as human beings, tell our friends who we are and what it’s like to be human. Story is the most adequate way we have of accounting for our lives…”
