Children's Ministries

We believe parents are the primary shapers of their children's faith.  Our goal is to come alongside parents and join them as together we seek to equip their children to find life and faith in Christ.  We value families worshiping together and provide quality children's programming with engaging Bible-centered teaching.  In addition to our Sunday morning ministries, we offer Wednesday evening programming called Bedrock Bay.

Bedrock Bay:

The journey through scripture one story at a time! 
What is Bedrock Bay: 

Bedrock Bay is our Wednesday night ministry throughout the school year for kids from Kindergarten through 5th grade. This year it is new and we are so excited!

We will meet together each week, have a large group lesson time, and break up into age-appropriate small groups where children will engage with one another in discussion, Bible memorization, connection, and an activity or game time.  Bedrock Bay focuses on kids building a strong and healthy faith foundation through exploring the Truth of the Bible and age-appropriate discipleship, bundled with lots of fun.

We encourage families to step into Bedrock Bay together to participate and volunteer! We also will have multiple nights throughout the year where families are invited and encouraged to attend alongside their child(ren).

What to Expect:

You can expect that your child will experience engaging Bible lessons fun and game times, Bible memorization, encouraging adult leaders, discipleship, and positive community among their peers.
