Welcome to Children's Ministries!
It is our desire
that children know and worship the Lord God as the Creator and Sustainer of all life, stand firmly on the Truth of scripture, and treasure God’s Word in their hearts and minds. |
It is our calling
to bring children to the place where they can meet Jesus, know Him as their personal Savior, and learn what it means to follow Him. -Paula Holmen, children's ministries staff and the ECC Children’s Commission
|
It is our commitment
to provide times for children to learn and experience God’s love and grace as well as provide opportunities for families to gather together for encouragement and fellowship. |

School Year Programs September thru May
“Feast & Family” usually every 2nd Sunday of the month
from September - May at 11:45am
from September - May at 11:45am

If you are a young adult, young couple or family with children at home (babies-youth group age) this invitation is for you! Once a month the children’s commission and volunteers are planning/serving a lunch following the morning worship service for you and your family. We will be serving a main dish, fruit/veggie salads (kid-friendly), dessert, and beverages. There is a small cost of $2 adults/ $1 kids to help with the cost of the food. What a great time to linger a bit longer, visit together, and have lunch taken care for the day!
Awana!Awana! Wednesday Nights!
Our Wednesday night Awana meeting is a time filled with energy, fellowship and spiritual growth. Each of our children’s clubs has its own unique meeting format, but in general Awana meetings are 1 ½ hrs and feature three main segments: Game Time, Handbook Time and Council Time. Game Time is comprised of exciting circle games exclusive to Awana played in the gym. Council Time is a large-group setting primarily dedicated to Bible teaching and presentation of the gospel. Handbook Time provides small-group interaction, recitation of Scripture that kids learned during the week, friendship building and opportunities for leaders to mentor children and help them understand the Bible verses they memorize. Here's what we do in Awana...we'd love to have you come along! |
Afterschool Celebrations
Filled with snacks, games, crafts, supper, movies and friends…who could ask for anything more? Be sure to ride bus #8 to the church after school and have your parent pick you up at 6:00pm. Sunday School!
We will gather on Sunday mornings at 9:00am. Our time together will include a lesson time, activities, and small group time. You will be in a group together with kids your age and will have a teacher guiding and leading your small group time! |
