Our Nursery Ministry provides a welcoming, nurturing atmosphere for the nursery age children of our members and visitors, six weeks old through three years of age, not potty trained. We strive to honor the Lord and support parents in the care and spiritual education of their children, in a loving, safe manner. Nursery care is available during Sunday morning worship services in Classroom 11 and upon request for mid-week Bible studies, adult classes and events.


Our Nursery Ministry Team engages children with exciting Bible stories and encourages them to be active participants in a variety of age appropriate activities designed to teach them the tremendous truths about God and His love for them. For the safety of all children, all of our team members are background checked and fingerprinted as well as CPR and First Aid certified.

  • whisper, whisper - learning about church

    We love having families worship together. If you prefer to keep your young children with you but need to step away from the service, we offer a quiet place in our Prayer Chapel or you can walk around in our Narthex where the service is shown on a TV.


    We also have a wonderful resource for our families with younger children called, "Whisper, Whisper - Learning About Church." This book explains all that happens during a worship service and it even includes `Sanctuary Tips' and `Teaching Moments.' Stop by our Family Resource Library to check out this book. Take it home and read it as a family with your little ones. Then, take it one step further and talk about a worship service and why we do what we do in church.


  • fAmily resource library

    Our Youth and Family Ministry (YFM) Team is devoted to the whole family throughout all the phases. We take a personal approach to ministry spanning a family's ages and stages. Each area partners dedicated staff, invested and trained small group leaders, and loving, supportive parents to leverage relationships for the sake of deep faith in the lives of our children and students. Our community purposefully seeks to walk with families as they raise godly and incredible kids. Our specific ministry areas share timely encouragement and program information.


    We have a wonderful Family Resource Library with books from newborn to college age on topics including "what to expect" at each age, as well as a variety of other topics. These resources are available on the patio every week.
