Christian Education

Children and Youth Ministry (Church School starts @ 9:30am on Sunday mornings, from the Sunday after Labor Day through the Sunday before Memorial Day weekend).

Our mission is to create a setting where each child may encounter the eternal truths of God's kingdom and the unfathomable love of Christ. Our Christian formation ministry is founded upon the belief that Christ calls children as Jesus' disciples to a life-long journey of growth and transformation. Our ministry to children intends to begin that journey in a safe, creative and expressive environment where the mystery of God is experienced through the wonderful truths of scripture, the encounter with Biblical stories and personal creative and artistic expression.

Material used for Pre-School & Kindergarten & 1st Grade (Ages 3-6): The children will be taught stories from a child’s bible, along with back up video’s for each story. This class focuses on establishing and building the foundation of a child’s religious understanding.
