Children's Ministries
Preschool Age Children's Ministry (3 & 4 Year-Olds and Kindergarteners)
Sundays at 9:30am- "The Playground" in Epworth Nursery Building
Children engage in large group worship and small groups during this hour. During large group, kids experience a Bible story through creative storytelling and music, and discover or are reminded of one-of-three basic truths: God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever.
During small group, kids take what they have learned and apply it through age-appropriate games, crafts and more.
Sundays at 11:00am- "The Playground" in Epworth Nursery Building
That week's Bible Study and Bottom Line is reviewed through a DVD presentation, a game or object lesson. Preschoolers will understand how the Bottom Line applies to them by discussing real-life, age-specific experiences. The lesson is reinforced with crafts, music and mission projects throughout the month.

Elementary Age Children’s Ministry (1st through 4th Grades)
All of our lessons focus on at least one of the three basic truths that we learn from Luke 2:52 – I need to make the wise choice, I can trust God no matter what, and I should treat others the way I want to be treated. In addition we cover traditional concepts like God, Jesus, the Bible, the church, family, community, and self.
Sundays at 9:30am- "Tree House" Kid's Church
This hour is devoted to a children's worship service designed just for them. Using age-appropriate messages provides greater comprehension and retention. High-energy worship music, uniquely-presented Bible stories, fun and fellowship are always a part of this experience.
Sundays at 11:00am- "Tree House KlubsLIVE"
After a presentation of the day’s Bible story, we dig a little deeper into our lesson and give age-appropriate activities so the children learn how to apply what God says—to their lives—in small groups of the same age and gender. Each small group is led by caring adults who want to be another Godly voice in a child’s life.
