Statement of Purpose:

The Children’s Education Ministry Team is dedicated to supplementing the family to lay a spiritual foundation that, in God’s timing, will lead our children into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ, and to provide a place where they can grow in their knowledge and love for God.

Statement of Vision:

For our children:

  • To create an atmosphere where learning about Jesus is both fun and life changing.

For our workers:

  • To provide the skills and resources needed in order to minister effectively.

For our church:

  • To help the members of our church find a place where they can use their God-given abilities in service in an area that is best suited for them.
