When it comes to our kids, we want to instill in them a love for God that will last a lifetime. Our praise and worship incorporates fun music and motions with cool lighting and sound that encourage children to enjoy themselves in the presence of the Lord. Kids have no trouble grasping the simplicity of the Gospel. By engaging them in interactive teaching, we allow them to think through Godly principles and apply them to their own lives.  Most importantly, we recognize that children are a part of our church family, and our leaders make a point of spending time with them in their daily lives by joining them for lunch at school, attending their sporting events, taking them to summer camp, and much more.  Click Here for more information on Summer Camp!



Even before they start school, our children love learning about God.  We incorporate all sorts of teaching tools to engage them in Bible lessons.  Puppets, drama and crafts work together to reinforce the lesson for each service.  We also set aside a special time for music because these little ones enjoy lifting their voices to make a joyful noise to the Lord.



We believe it’s never too soon to share God’s love with our children.  Infants are prayed over at every service, we begin exposing them to worship, teaching them about how wonderfully and perfectly they are made, and we lead them toward developing a recognition of their pastors and a love for the Bible.
