Sunday School
Nursery Sunday School
The Nursery Sunday School is offered for children who are infants-age 4. This class is a mix of play, bible story, and snack that meets in the nursery.
Grades K-5
Students grade K-5 meet together to start the morning and then will split into two groups (K-2 & 3-5) to study the lesson in a different way each week involving art, drama, science, cooking, videos, games, and missions. This rotational model allows the kids to see how the Bible comes to life and gives kids the ability to move and be creative! Bible verses are memorized, and offering is taken to support our church mission project for the year.
JAM Kids
JAM Kids (Jesus an Me) is a mid-week afterschool focused on sharing God’s love with children through stories, music, crafts, & fellowship! JAM Kids meets the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays each month October - April. Registration is currently open for this program.

Youth Groups
