kindergarten-5th grade

Our First Kidz Children's Ministry is dedicated to partnering with parents to apply Deuteronomy 6: 5-7 "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. These words, which I am commanding you today, shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your sons and shall talk of them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down and when you rise up".


We have an exciting, loving, loud, and fun place where kidz are loved and they learn Jesus loves them! Come check us out! We love our First Kidz and look forward to having your children join us!

children's church

Children’s Church is for children from Pre-K - 2nd grade and consists of Bible Study, songs, games, and teaching our children how to worship. We are equipping them to live a life that pleases Jesus and is a testimony to others that Jesus lives inside them!


Parents are encouraged to serve in Children's Church on a rotating basis once every 3 months to be able to see our Children's Church and participate with your child.


Children's church meets at 10:15am on the second floor of the Education Building in the Rally Room.
