Early Childhood Ministry

We have classes available at every service for kids 18 months to kindergarten. All classes are located upstairs in the Family Life Center (where the sanctuary and gym are located) . 

The nursery is available during Sunday service for babies 18 months or younger. (Located through the Lobby)


Each classroom teacher incorporates many different methods to communicate biblical truth each week. Children enjoy free play centers, worship, story time, video, and art. 


A snack is included each week as. If your child has food allergies, please notify the teacher upon check-in.
