Ministries for Children and Youth

---

Nursery: We offer a nursery program on Sunday mornings for parents with children that are ages birth to 3 years old.  Feel confident that you can enjoy being fully present in the service and fully secure in knowing your children are well cared for.  Your children will also be able to hear and see the service as we livestream it into the nursery.  Therefore, if you want to be with your child in nursery you can still hear and see the service. 

Tots Praise: Ages 3 to Kindergarten: We offer a program for anyone ages 3 through Kindergarten called Tots Praise.  The kids start out in the main worship service with their families. After about 20 minutes, they are invited forward for a blessing and then released  to further learn about the inspiring message of Jesus while also having time to play.   We use the Orange Curriculum that includes a video series of bible stories, music, and inspiring messages.

 On Sunday mornings during our worship service, our 1st-4th graders enjoy a wonderful time of fellowship, fun, and faith in what we call our Worship Center. 

The kids start out in the main worship service with their families. After about 20 minutes, they are invited forward for a blessing and then released to their space downstairs. This program uses the Orange Curriculum and incorporates great lessons along with a video series to engage the kids in wonderful life and faith learning.  

Expect your kid to be inspired by the teaching, activities, and fun that they have.  

The first Sunday of each month the kids of Worship Center stay in  the worship service with their families to participate in communion. 

In the summer children ages 1st-4th grade stay in the worship service with their families with quiet activities provided.

On select Sunday afternoons and/or evenings, youth in grades 5-12 gather for a time of fun, fellowship, and faith. We combine a variety of activities and age groupings to make a program that will help your youth to see how faith can be fun, about who God is calling them to be, about how scripture can teach us many lessons of life, about how to have an open conversation with God and others, and about how food is a vital piece of all youth ministry activities . 

All youth are welcome whether members of the community, friends of a current youth, or a visitor just interested in being at a place that accepts and loves you for who you are. 

Come join us for social events such as Michigan Adventure and Snow Tubing. Come eat some snacks, kick your feet up, and watch a movie on our movie nights. Join us for inspiring discussion on faith and life while we also play games and snack on our Sunday youth group nights. If you are a High School student, come enjoy a free meal and tremendous discussion with our Dinner and Discussion program.     

This Youth Ministry program is here to meet your needs of having a place that is safe for all people, for all discussions, and for all questions. REMEMBER ALL ARE WELCOME!
