WE WANT KIDS EXCITED ABOUT JESUS!

How Do You Know A Church Has an Outstanding Kids’ Program….?

KIDS RUNNING ACROSS THE PARKING LOT TO JESUS!

We want kids to be so excited about Jesus that we want to see them (safely) running across the parking lot to get to him!

Jesus Loves Children…and
We Love Children Too!

In a world full of distractions,
Children’s Ministry helps kids:

Discover the love of Jesus and ultimately decide to Follow Jesus!

Kids explore Bible stories, music and instruments, and fun activities together. Kids Get Free Rides!

CHILDREN’S SERMON

Children of all ages (and kids at heart) are invited to the front of the sanctuary for a children’s moment with Pastor Ivan or a lay leader. A simple object is used to teach children the truth of God’s Word and Show: Kids Are the Church of Today and Tomorrow! Watch Out! Sometimes they get loud, messy, and wild!

SUNDAY MORNING CHILDREN’S CHURCH
We Want Kids in Worship

After the Children’s Sermon, students in Preschool to 3rd Grade are dismissed to Children’s Church with trained leaders guiding a child-friendly time of worship and Bible lesson. Children return to the sanctuary at the end of the worship service to meet their parents before the benediction (dismissal).
