CHILDREN'S MINISTRY

Faith Formation

Discipleship  We have many different ways to get your child plugged into the life of the church.  Our goal as a church is to nurture and guide your child so that they would know they are wonderfully made, that God has a plan for their life, and Jesus is their savior.  Our Elementary-aged disciples, our Lighthouse Kids, meet each Sunday for a time of fun, learning, and fellowship.  Our 5th-8th graders enjoy a discipleship class that helps them develop their personal relationship with Christ and transition into our Youth Ministry programs.

Children’s Activities—Children are encouraged to sing in special performances around Christmas and Easter led by our music department.  Special activities for children and families are planned throughout the year such as fishing, bowling and trunk-or-treat.  Children are encouraged to participate in our annual Christmas pageant and Easter egg hunt.  Service opportunities such as Operation Christmas Child and Rise Against Hunger Rice Packaging are available for participation.  During the summer we have VBS and Summer Retreats.
