What do we do?
We exist to help children explore the stories of the Bible, express their needs and feelings to others in God-honoring ways, extend the Gospel to children and parents, and extend help to the needs of parents and children in our community.
Explore
We believe that God’s Word is truth, and we can learn how to live our lives in a way that honors Him by learning about the stories of the Bible from end to end. Whether it is through skits, puppets, videos, or anything else, we want children to remember these stories and apply them to their lives.
Express
We believe that God has called His Church to live in community with one another, and relationships can often be both beautiful and difficult. We strive to help children express their needs and feelings in ways that honor God by modeling good behavior, memorizing Scripture, and showing grace to children as they learn how to be good friends to one another.
Extend
We believe that Jesus has given all Christians a mission to extend the Gospel to everyone, and extend a helping hand to those in need. Our children’s ministry seeks to empower parents with the tools they need to encourage the growing faith of their children at home. We also know that parenting is difficult, and we seek to extend help for physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs of parents and children.
