Ministries for Children
.
Wouldn’t you love your children to be part of a community with a conscience?

Our ministry associate with responsibility for children’s ministry is Chrissy Hackett. On Sundays we provide educational and recreational opportunities for children while the community worship gatherings are in progress. Children are, of course, always welcome in our worship gatherings but we understand that parents might choose for their children to participate in age-appropriate, supervised activities instead.
We offer confirmation for teenagers who are looking to take their place as full, adult members of the community. Our confirmation program involves a series of classes and formative events, including a weekend-long retreat and an opportunity to participate in a mission trip. Here are some photographs from a week-end long confirmation retreat:

Our confirmands have done some astonishing things to reach out and help others – see what Anna and Hollis accomplished on their confirmation mission trip to Zambia in this photo journal article:
Coats for the children in Zambia.
When nobody tells a teenager that they can’t change the world, they just go out and do it! Encourage the teenagers in your family to join us and see what they can do. Contact our pastor to talk about confirmation for your teenager.
