ABOUT CHILDREN (infants-3rd grade)

We want to partner with parents to make disciples of Jesus, helping equip children to become all God created them to be!  We intentionally develp character, teach the truth of God's word, and learn to serve others, all in a loving and safe environment. Our goal is to come alongside parents in their God-given role of training up their children in the ways of the Lord, and see our ministry to children as ministry to the whole family. 

ABOUT PRE-TEENS (4th-6th grade)

BE BOLD! Developmentally, your preteens are on the edge physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. They’re deciding what they believe. They have faith questions that can’t be answered with simple fill-in-the-blank answers. Be Bold creates an environment for preteens to grow their faith.  They need more than a place to ask questions-- they need a community!

During the worship hour (11:00am-12:00pm), children are invited and encourage to participate in worship with their families We also offer Children's Church once a month for Kinder - 3rd grade, where kids leave the worship center during the sermon time for their own object lesson, activities, and playground time.
