Sunday School: PreK-5th Grade students are invited to attend classes right after the Time of Young Christians/Children’s Message each Sunday. Through singing, Bible stories, hands-on-activities, and child-friendly themes, our youngest Christians will have faithful and fun-filled experiences that are tangible, applicable, and meaningful to children’s everyday lives. Read all about it here. Sign up for Sunday School here.

Volunteer: Are you interested in supporting our children in a small group by being a teacher, shepherd, or leading an event? Sign up here or contact Shelly Stienbarger at
