School is in session and so is our Nursery! During our Sunday School hour (9:45am-10:30am), we have coloring pages and fun videos for the kiddos to watch with trained adults there to lead them. Ages 0-Pre-K are welcome!

If you're hesitant about Sunday School, no worries! Our staffed Nursery is open and available to you during worship with complete access to our livestreamed service through the TV.

Who's ready to dive into games, crafts, and some fun Bible stories? Our K-5 ministry offers Sunday School each week that offers different skills like team building, leadership, problem solving, and inquisitive thinking! We also offer monthly family nights that allow the youth and their parents to join their friends at the church for a night of fun! We emphasize friendship and connection during these vital years as we prepare these young minds for Confirmation and beyond.

Confirmation is in full swing for our 6th-8th graders! We offer bi-weekly classes from 12:30pm-2pm in our Fellowship Hall at the church. We focus on big ideas like The Sacraments and Old & New Testament, but we also do our best to tackle some questions that may help guide them during their Confirmation journey. We plan Summer camp for our middle schoolers and bi-yearly confirmation camps to attend.

Our High School Youth Group is nothing short of fun! We meet bi-weekly on Sunday Nights (location varies!) to talk about life, hang out, and plan what we want our year to look like. We fundraise throughout the year for our yearly Summer Service Trip. This year, we are headed to New Orleans! Check out our fundraising initiatives HERE.
