Upcoming AYS Program – March 22nd!

We’ve been exploring how God calls each of us to carry out His Great Commission, and in our recent AYS programs, we’ve been inspired by the lives and legacies of missionaries both young and old. Our goal is to instill in our children and youth the importance of living a life of service to the Lord.

Join us for our next AYS program on March 22nd from 2-3 p.m. in the Beginner's Classroom. It’s going to be an enriching time as we continue to learn and grow in our commitment to serve God!
