Christian Education

“All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.”

II Timothy 3:16-17

 

Our Christian Education mission is to educate, encourage, and energize. We provide compelling, age-appropriate experiences for our children, young adults, and adults with emphasis in memorization of scripture to deeply root us in God’s word and allow us to lean on His teachings when we most need them. We encourage you to take responsibility for your own relationship with God. And if you’re a parent, we encourage you to take responsibility for your child’s relationship with God. We energize you by providing fun, interactive ways to grow closer to God and grow in service to Jesus Christ.

 

Join us each Sunday morning at 9:15am for Praise Time together and then we split out into age-specific groups from 9:30 to 10:15am. Three Sundays this fall are extra special! Showcase Sundays on September 30th, November 4th and December 16th will give the kids a chance to share their excitement and learning with the rest of the congregation – letting their light shine!

Nursery

We provide nursery for any child under 3 years of age from 9:15am to noon. Children up to Kindergarten are welcome in the nursery during worship from 10:15am to noon, but we encourage their presence in the worship service until after the Time for Young Disciples.
