“Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray form them.  But the disciples rebuked those who brought them.  Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”  Matthew 19:13-15

We believe children are an incredible gift from God and seek to cherish them as such. We take very seriously Jesus’ attitude towards children.  We introduce them to the life-changing message of Jesus Christ, and encourage them to embrace His teachings and attitudes.  The Kids Community is open to ages Infant – Grade 5. 

We have adopted a “one-room schoolhouse” approach to promote healthy and positive interaction between the children.  Children will be taught in small groups according to their age/school level and then come together for worship time as a large group.
