We support our children and families to build stronger, more faithful and engaging connections with God, our whole church family and our surrounding community. We encourage parents and their children (birth-5th grade) to be involved and participate in faith formation, fellowship, and service in fun, age-appropriate ways.

Children are invited to Sunday School during worship service in the Children's Wing Classrooms located under the sanctuary. Kids develop friendships and grow in faith through Bible stories, games, art, service, and prayer.
