children's Ministry

"Whoever welcomes

one such child in my name welcomes me."

Matthew 18:5

Through "Godly Play" we help our children interact with the Story of God, and grow in deeper love for God and neighbor. We make it our mission to help children grow and discover a love for Christ! 


We believe…

  • children need a safe, loving environment.

  • children should feel known, valued, and be an important member of our faith community.

  • teaching and showing compassion, understanding, acceptance, love, and courage should be part of our everyday living.

  • equipping and partnering with families as you lead your children in their faith walk is one of our church’s responsibilities.
