Children's Ministry

VBS 2020 ~ June 8-12

Knights of North Castle: Quest for the King’s Armor invites children to be strong in the Lord and in the strength of God’s power! Kids will take on the role of brave Knights and begin their quest each session by opening the King’s Book. They’ll explore Old and New Testament stories and discover different pieces of protective armor—the Belt of Truth, the Breastplate of Justice, the Shoes of Peace, the Shield of Faith, and the Helmet of Salvation—at work in the lives of familiar Bible characters, and explore how that armor works in their own lives as they follow and serve God. Help kids take up the gauntlet and accept the challenge to “armor up” and be strong by remaining with God!

VBS registration is temporarily postponed. Check back HERE for updates and a link to register.

What you can expect in the nursery program

Available starting at 8:15-noon

Our purpose on Sunday mornings for nursery age children is to provide a safe and loving environment for you and your child. We believe your child is a gift from God - so we provide the best care possible. We also believe that it is never too early to teach a child about God's love. We believe that we represent Christ to each little one in our care, and want to lay a foundation for your child not only to trust us, but also to trust in God.

What's Expected of you?

Do not  leave the church campus while your child is in the nursery.
When packing a diaper bag for your child, include 2 or 3 disposable diapers.
Include a pacifier or other item, should your child need it for security.
A change of clothes in case your child would require that.
A bottle of milk, formula, juice or water. (Good practice even for moms who nurse.)
Label diaper bag with child's name. Label bottles & pacifiers.
Do not leave personal belongings in the diaper bag (only baby's essentials).
