Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14
Our children are gifts from God. While they are with us we must train them in the right way, so when they are older they will not depart from it. Church is the first place our children is introduced to many public speaking, leadership roles, coordinating activities and other essential life skills. For this reason, e encourage our children to be involved in church, and we actively seek them out to participate in various programs; some are dedicated to them and some are along side the adults. However, he Third Sunday of each month is lead by young people and college students, and we recognize their accomplishments for that month. We offer many ways for children to be involved. Feel free to contact the point of contact for the activities we offer.
