Our Children's Ministry exists to bring children into a relationship with Jesus Christ, to develop them as worshippers and students of God’s Word. Our curriculum focuses not only on a relationship with God through His Son, Jesus Christ, but also on our relationships with others, and applying scriptural principles to the choices we make in life. We endeavor to partner with their families in both evangelistic and discipleship pursuits.

The Children's Ministry provides a safe, fun, enriching environment for your preschooler, child or preteen to learn about Jesus Christ and discover how to love others and become a faithful Christian.

Our Children’s Ministry workers are trained and abide by the rules set forth in our Children and Preschool Policies Manual.



Each Sunday, children enjoy a time of learning Bible truths, creative play time that supports the teaching, crafts, music and other fun activities. Children meet in the three-story brick building that sits just northeast of our main Worship Center.
 
Preschool and nursery facilities are on the first floor of the Children’s Building, and, for security reasons, preschoolers and infants must be checked in and checked out by parents or other authorized family members.           



We’ve combined these popular Children’s Bible and Mission clubs into a single weekly event. Your child can participate in the internationally acclaimed AWANA scripture memorization program, as well as Royal Ambassadors and Girls in Action, the Southern Baptist missions training programs.  Games, crafts, even camping and cooking! Nowhere else can a child learn so much while having so much fun!!! - AWANA meets on Wednesdays during the school year from 6:00 – 8:05 PM!
 
We have groups for children 2 years through 5th grade. 


 
Our Children’s Church meets in room #100 (Office Building) during our 10:50 AM service. This high-tech atmosphere offers exciting music and activities as well as more opportunity for learning Bible truths. Children’s Church is open to all children grades Kindergarten through 5th grade. Younger children are welcome to stay in their Sunday School areas for an Extended Session – a continuation of Bible-based playtime and learning.

 

(Coming this Fall) Link to Music Ministry/Music Club
 
Music Club is designed to teach children the fundamentals of music as they learn how to worship God through singing and musical expression. Fun activities explored are singing, playing instruments, choreography and drama that are built on the teaching of music theory, Biblical stories and doctrine.  In addition to weekly meetings, the children will work together to present a song or short drama during at least one of the Sunday evening church services each semester.  A musical production is also done at least once a year. 



We offer Vacation Bible School every summer for children who will be entering K-Grade 5. It’s a high-energy week filled with games, recreation, crafts, and Bible stories.
 
This year’s VBS schedule is:

June 23-27, 8:30 AM – Noon, Family Life Center

This year’s theme is based on Psalm 86:11.  Kids will learn: God is real, Jesus is God's son, Jesus is the only way, The Bible is God's Word, and that their actions show what they believe.

This year’s theme is: Outrigger Island
