Family Ministries

Children’s Day

On June 1, 2025, we celebrated another Family Ministries year with Children’s Day! Twenty-five of our children and youth participated in various roles throughout the service, from greeters to the Sermon. Our first graders all the way up to our high school graduates made this service a fun and memorable event full of the energy and joy that children bring. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the classrooms in September and pray you and your family fill your summer with loving memories. We hope you will join us for Sunday services throughout the summer.
