and partnering with parents to guide children toward a HEART of God.

Base Camp
Wednesdays, 6:00-7:30pm
This is a "Scouting-like" program for kids preschool through fifth grade. Base Camp uses an active, hands-on learning approach to help children grow physically, socially, mentally, and spiritually. It focuses on teaching everyday life skills with a distinctly Christian focus. The Base Camp curriculum encourages spending time in creation where kids will learn how to live sustainably with what God has provided us. Throughout the year, kids will have the opportunity to go on a camping trip, participate in service projects around our city, and learn important skills such as cooking and pet care.
Kids' Connection
This is our very own worship service for kids ages Kindergarten through 3rd grade. In Kids Connection we teach kids how to worship. Your child will learn all the different parts of the worship service and why they are important. Worship consists of dance-worthy music, kid-friendly responsive readings, learning the Lord's Prayer, lightening of candles, a collection of offering, and Bible story time on the carpet. Come move, sing, laugh and learn with us in Kids' Connection!
Join us every Sunday morning during the 10:10AM Sunday School time. Kids will be in room #127.
Adventure Zone
A non-traditional approach to Sunday school for kids K-3rd grade. Adventure Zone is an interactive program that emphasizes Biblical literacy. Kids will learn Bible stories and memorize scripture all while playing games and doing crafts. Adventure Zone is offered during the 11:11AM service in room #127.
FYI- Future Youth Inc.
A Sunday school class designed for 4th & 5th graders that focuses on preparing kids for Confirmation and youth ministry. FYI meets Sunday's at 10:10AM in room #120.
