Weekly events
Children's Church
POWER UP Kids Sunday School
Wednesday RECHARGE Kids
Sundays, 9am & 11am
We believe it is important for families to worship together and for children to experience the traditions of the worship service. We also know, when you're little, sitting in one place for too long can be really tough! Children are encouraged to sit with their family during the beginning of worship, then at a designated time during the service, children will be dismissed for Children's Church for an energetic lesson, games, and activities. Look for a Connected Kids ministry team member to greet you before the worship service begins and answer any questions.
Sundays, 10am
Children in preschool through 5th grade are invited to join us every Sunday from 10:00-10:45 am for Power Up Kids. Meeting in the upstairs Education Building, each Sunday is filled with games, friends, and scripture lessons. Come "Power Up" for your week with God!
Wednesdays, 6:30-7:30pm
After Fellowship Wednesday Dinners, children in preschool through 5th grade are invited to stay for games, scripture lessons, worship, music, and more! It's a great time to pause midweek and "Recharge" with God!
