Children & Family Ministries

Mother and daughter

"Then Jesus took the children in his arms, placed his hands on each of them and blessed them." Mark 10:16

We value children. It is our desire to partner with you in the Christian formation of children and families. We value and support the leadership roles of both women and men in the spiritual nurturing of children in the home, church and community. As a department we offer a model of ministry that seeks to integrate God's people into a community of disciples through a holistic ministry approach involving a partnership with the home, community and the gathered church.

There are a variety of resources and services listed on our "Ministry Tools" page that we offer you to help in your ministry with children and families. If there is something you need but don't see please ask us. We want to be available to you and relevant to your ministry.
