Welcome
To all who mourn and need
comfort; to all who are tired and need rest; to all who are friendless
and want friendship; to all who search after sheltering love; to all who
pray, and to all who do not, but ought to; to all who sin and need the
Savior; to whoever will come, this church says “Welcome” in the name of
Jesus Christ.
~Children's Ministry~ Mat
18:5 “Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives
Me.”
We believe that all children are a gift from
God to their parents, families, and the church. Through the ministry of
the church, we are called to welcome them into the family of Christ as
Jesus welcomed the little children. We will seek to provide a safe and
caring environment where they can flourish and grow in wisdom, health,
and faith, helping them to discover their God given gifts and use them
to serve Christ.
Ministry to Children begins at birth and continues
through grade 5.
