Children's Ministry

Every Sunday morning during the worship service we take a
moment to include a time for the younger children. They have the
opportunity to gather together and have a "mini" lesson just for them.
Usually the lesson tries to tie in with the sermon they will be hearing,
helping them to understand the key concept. More times than not the
children teach us a lesson! This is truly a special time in our service
and we welcome any visitors to join us.
We have an active Children's Choir. The Children's Choir
does two musicals each year, one in the spring and one at Christmas.
During the school year many of our children participate in
Bible Drills. This is a time to become familiar with the Bible. They learn
the books of the Bible and how to locate them quickly. In the spring, they have
an opportunity to use their newly learned skills in church, association
and state competitions. We are proud of the competency of our children in
these areas.
Our girls participate in Girls in Action following choir on
Wednesday. This is an attempt to make our girls more aware of the mission
opportunities in our world. We are in the process of starting a Royal
Ambassador program for the boys to instill an interest in missions within
them.
During the summer, we provide Fabulous Fridays, a weekly
opportunity for Bible Study, fellowship and fun. The final week of
Fabulous Fridays the children take a field trip and there is also a family
outing that brings all the families together for a time of fellowship.
CHILDREN FIRST
Our Nursery area is making many changes! A special thank you to SUSAN WOOD
for putting together a list (posted on the bulletin board in the hall) for
nursery workers with your particular Sunday. Please note we have several
blanks that need to be filled in and we would welcome your participation!!
When we all pull together we are truly able to show Christ’s love to the
young families in this community!
BIBLE BUDDIES
Our Bible Buddies continue to meet every
Sunday evening from 5-7pm. We are very proud of the children in this group
they have gone above and beyond to learn many of the Bible skills we as
adults have yet to learn. They are learning all the books of the bible and
how to locate them quickly (within 10 seconds), memorizing scriptures, and
even learning a few key passages. Oh yeah, did I mention these children are
in the first through third grades. WOW!
