The combined influence of the heart of the parents and the light of the church forms a powerful influence on any child. If we work together, we can make a greater impact than if we work alone.
We strive to partner with parents to raise up kids who know Christ and are learning how to live as his children in a 24/7 world.
Sundays, 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
For our preschoolers, SonShine Garden helps develop WONDER: God made me * God loves me * Jesus wants to be my friend. 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. focus on the same lesson, but with different activities.
For our elementary school-aged kids, Kingdom Kids helps children discover Christ-like CHARACTER:
I can trust God no matter what * I need to make the wise choice * I need to love others as myself. Each month we focus on what the Bible teaches us about a different character trait. Kids start out first in a lively and creatively taught large group, and then move to a small group setting.
9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. focus on the same lesson, but with different activities. Parents get a weekly email letting them know what the lesson covered, and there’s a GodTime page each week for children to work on at home and bring back.
Sunday nights
NightLights: During the Five, our NightLights program offers a Bible story, fun activities and secure childcare for nursery through grade four.
