Children's Ministries
“Jesus called the children to him and said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it'” Luke 18:16-17
We believe children are a gift from God and essential partners in God’s kingdom plan. This ministry exists to guide children to Jesus as the source of life in all its fullness (John10:10) and to support them on their spiritual journey.
