It would be ideal to set up a new “group” (like we have for other weekly service positions) and we need to gauge interest and commitment. Thank you in advance!

During our 10:00 AM service, children ages three years old to fifth graders leave after the children’s message. Here, they dive into the stories that dwell at the core of Christian understanding. We use tools like crafts, games, stories, and other aids that play to the different learning styles. There is no cost for the program, and all levels of engagement are welcome to join in the learning.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email Pastor Brice.
