We value children highly!  And we want them to grow strong in every way –  spiritually, socially, emotionally, and physically.    To foster healthy growth, we provide a wide variety of programs that are fun, active, relational and character-building.

Children’s LIFT is a Wednesday evening program  for church and community children.  Age-based Bible learning classes are provided, as well as crafts and sports in our new large gym.   Children age 3 -grade 6 are invited.  Nursery care is available for children of parents who attend our adult groups.  The spring 2012 classes will meet from 6:45 – 7:45 beginning February 1, 2012.   A family meal is served at 6:00 p.m. for a suggested donation.  LIFT meets for 8 sessions in the fall, and 8 sessions in the winter / spring.

Junior Kids (grades 4-6) have occasional social activities.  These may include bowling, swimming, shows, miniature golf, museums, …whatever!  A social event is held at least four times a year.

Dads and Dudes is a special activity program for dads and sons in Kdg-grade 6.    Excursions or gym nights are planned every two or three months.

Roller skating is a favorite!  Twice a year we rent the Overlook rink exclusively for our church’s use.

Vacation Bible School is held for five evenings each summer.  In addition to Bible stories, there’s energizing music, exciting contests, unique crafts, and fun-filled games.

Sunday noon family meals are held occasionally and provide time for play on the preschool equipment as well as sports in the gym.

Children’s Christmas program is presented each December.   The children sing, play instruments, give recitations and present the drama of the first Christmas.
