Our Mission

We want to partner together with parents to help develop children into fully devoted followers of Christ. Everything we do is focused on helping children love God, teaching them to love others, and helping them to become disciples who follow Jesus. Our vision is that our children are becoming disciples who make disciples.

Sundays  |  L.I.F.E. Groups  |  9:45am

Each Sunday your children can participate in an age-specific L.I.F.E. group. These groups serve to help your children know and love God by teaching them God's truths from the Bible. These groups are led by trained volunteers who are passionate about helping your children know God and follow Him.

Mission Friends (Ages 4-5) | Leader: Angie Weeks

This critical foundation in the lives of preschoolers will help them grow spiritually into the next generation of Christ followers who will fulfill His Great Commission.
