Staycation Bible School – Discovery on Adventure Island – is June 14-17! In addition to daily broadcasts, we are offering a free take-home supply kit that will further enhance your family’s experience. Each kit will include at-home activities, a VBS Take-Home CD, a special treat, and more! Although our virtual format will allow us to reach children of all ages, the kits are available only for children who turn 4 on or before August 31, 2021 through 5th graders. Kits will be available for order only while supplies last, so don’t delay! Click here to sign up!

CLICK HERE FOR THE APRIL 22 EDPISODE. Beyond Baptism is intended for parents and adults invested in the young people of our church. We recognize that our baptismal callings as the church go beyond the moment of baptism. This podcast talks about what it means to raise children in the church and keep you up to date with the ministry experience of our children and youth. All episodes of Beyond Baptism are available here. Subscribe, rate, and review today!
You’re never too young to participate in worship. To support families and enhance a child’s worship experience, we offer a children’s worship bulletin and children’s bingo game. We’re also excited to introduce We Are the Church: Stories, Songs, and Scripture That Guide Our Faith, our new Sunday School program. Video links are posted on our website and our YouTube channel and are sent to our email subscribers each week. Sunday School is open for everyone, but to let us know your intention to participate and to help us maintain updated information for your family, please register your children for Sunday School here.
Sunday School is virtual until it is safe to gather together again.
