Children & Youth

Children and teenagers are a valued part of our church family. We want them to know they belong here—not simply as the future of the church, but as part of our community today. We seek to provide welcoming spaces where young people can build friendships, ask questions, explore faith, and discover God’s love in the midst of everyday life.

Children (Birth–5th Grade)

Sunday School — 9:30 AM

Children gather in our downstairs classrooms for age-appropriate lessons, stories, activities, and conversation. Our teachers help children encounter Scripture with curiosity and imagination, emphasizing God’s generous love and the importance of kindness, compassion, and belonging.

Worship & Junior Worship — 10:30 AM

Families begin worship together in the auditorium. During the sermon, children are invited downstairs for Junior Worship, where they explore a message prepared especially for them before returning to their families.

Children are always welcome to remain with their families throughout the service. Worship Bags with quiet activities are available to help little hands stay busy. Please return them to the upstairs nursery basket after worship.

Nursery Spaces

We offer two nursery spaces for families with young children. The upstairs nursery has comfortable seating, books, toys, and a changing table. The downstairs nursery offers additional room for movement, toys, seating, and a changing station.

Both spaces are available to help families participate in congregational life in ways that work for them.

Youth (6th–12th Grade)

Sunday School — 9:30 AM

Our teenagers gather for an interactive Bible class where questions are welcome and conversation matters. Together, they explore Scripture, consider how faith connects with everyday life, and learn from one another.

Whether a student has grown up in church or is exploring Christianity for the first time, there is a place for them here.

Sunday Worship — 10:30 AM

Following Sunday School, our youth join the congregation for worship. We encourage teenagers to participate fully in the life of the church through worship, service, fellowship, and opportunities to contribute their gifts.

Beyond Sunday

Throughout the year, our youth spend time together through gatherings, service projects, outings, and special events. These shared experiences offer opportunities to build lasting friendships, serve others, and grow in faith.

Staying Connected

Our weekly bulletin includes the latest news about children and youth activities, along with simple ideas to help families explore and practice faith together at home.

Printed copies are available each Sunday at the church building, and electronic copies can be requested from our Administrative Assistant.

Safety & Care

The safety and well-being of children and teenagers matter deeply to us. Our teachers and children’s ministry volunteers complete background screenings, and we seek to provide a caring environment where every young person is respected, included, and valued.
