Children's MinistryClasses for all ages are offered Sunday Mornings at 9:30 AM & Wednesday Evenings at 7:15 PM.
From Ages 2 years-5th grade, on Sunday mornings, all classes are learning the same topic and Bible stories geared towards each of their age groups. These classes are challenged to learn three memory verses each quarter and receive a prize when they are able to say these verses to their teachers. Our 3rd-5th grade students currently have an "Escape Room" class on Wednesday evenings themed around finding clues in the Bible that lead to learning the bigger picture God has for them in their lives. They also have a service project they do together each month with their Sunday morning teacher. They've done trash pick up, artwork for the nursing home residents, and Blessing Boxes for college students. Wednesday nights our 4-year-olds up through 2nd grade enjoy an activity class with a rotation of teachers who put together fun projects to help the kids to connect learn to solve problems together. |
LEADERSHIP TRAINING FOR CHRISTEvery year our 3rd-12th Graders are invited to participate in LTC (Leadership Training for Christ). We attend the Dallas convention on Easter weekend. Click here to view more info on the convention and rules.
There are some events that kids can participate in without having to attend the Dallas convention. However, if a child would like to be able to go to Dallas, they are required to sign up for 2 events and participate in the Bible Bowl. Each family with kids involved get their 1st night hotel stay paid for, and all meals are provided. A sign up sheet is usually posted in the fellowship hall in November, and a schedule of practices and times to meet with coaches is put out the following January each year. Some events the kids are able to get involved in include: drama, puppets, poetry, story writing, film making, song leading, speech, signing for the Deaf, art, children's book, photography, etc. The congregation is also invited to study up on the same material as the LTC kids, and the Adults and Kids challenge each other to a "Bible Bowl Duel" the Sunday evening before Easter Weekend. LTC Presentations & Performances will be done in front of the congregation the Wednesday before Easter weekend.
