CHILDREN’S MINISTRY AT FIRST CHURCH
Children are an amazing gift and awesome responsibility for those of us who are the parents, grandparents, and caring adults in their lives. We teach them how to brush their teeth and tie their shoes. So how about guiding them in the ways of Jesus, too?
Our Children’s Ministry is uniquely designed for kids, birth through fifth grade, to experience safe, age-appropriate environments where the Bible is taught in a creative way that they can understand.
A WORD FROM KAREN
Isaiah 58:12 “…you shall raise up the foundations of many generations.”
Studies show children have fully formed their moral and spiritual foundations by 12 years old. We know it is vitally important to tell children about Jesus and what He did for them! I am privileged to work with a dedicated team of volunteers who believe a relationship with Jesus Christ begins early in life. Together, we will help your child become a bright, positive, and magnificent light bringing hope to the world.
