Children's Ministry (Old)

We take the stewardship of our children seriously. Therefore, our classes are saturated with the truth of Gods Word.

We take the stewardship of our children seriously. Therefore, our classes are saturated with the truth of God's Word. This is done in a fun, grade-appropriate manner. Our goal is to see our children come to a genuine saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We labor to instruct the message & meaning of the gospel.

VISION:

To bring children into a personal relationship with Christ through clear and consistent teaching of the gospel, training them to live under the authority of God's Word and supporting parents in their role in bringing up their children in the fear of the Lord.

MISSION:

We will accomplish this by discipling our teachers to accurately teach the Word of God, equipping parents to teach their children diligently, and leading children to a biblical understanding of salvation through Christ, relying upon the Holy Spirit to accomplish the work of salvation and growth.

OBJECTIVES:
Bringing Children to a Knowledge of Christ by:
  • Quality Education
  • Replacing ignorance with Truth
  • God-Centered Curriculum

Teaching will take place in the formal bible study setting, modeling, and informal teaching opportunities. Adults are involved with children in the areas of bible study, Cross Trainers, Nursery, and Wee Worship.

Supporting Parents in their Roles by:

  • Prayer (Hebrews 4:16)
  • Humility (James 4:6ff)
  • The Word (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
  • Leadership/direction

Parental communication will be expected by all workers with children.
We will accomplish this by:

  • An annual event(Christmas)
  • Newsletter every 6 weeks (Pastoral message, teaching tip, encouraging word, etc.)
  • Parent Conferences every 6 weeks
  • Informal parent contacts made by teachers

Discipling Teachers by:

  • Teaching Spiritual Disciplines
  • Personal Enrichment
  • Theological Education

We will be committed to excellence in teaching, so the following will take place in order to maintain that excellence:

  • Weekly teacher training
  • Quarterly event
