Our Children and Family Ministries nurture the gathering of families to celebrate God's love and grace. Children are a vibrant component of our congregation and we seek to raise them up in the way they should go, knowing they are loved and created in God's image. Children and families engage in Faith, Formation, and Fruitfulness through various experiences within our Children's Ministry. To learn more about our Children's Ministry contact Brittany Mullinex or Amy Gaertner.
