Children's Ministry

Our Children’s Ministry is designed to help kids think about scripture and learn how to apply it to their lives. Our teaching is strongly Biblical and presented in fun and upbeat ways.

Parents, you are the most important influence on your children.  Together we are a team helping train your child in the way he or she should go. We need and value your involvement. It is my privilege to teach, laugh, learn and pray with your children. 

I also consider it an honor to get to know you, discuss concerns, share joys and pray for your burdens.

Together for HIS Kids,
Pastor Randy

Musicals & Dramas  (First – Sixth Graders)
These seasonal productions give kids an opportunity to really ham it up through fun, action-oriented songs and memorable skits.  As the kids learn their parts, they grasp the Biblical foundation of the production and begin to put it into practice in their own life.


Ring and Sing  (3 -6 yrs) 
Our younger kids share their talent through bells and mini-musicals.

Trunk or Treat (Preschool– Sixth Graders) 
This event, filled with fun and candy, offers a safe environment for your kids to dress in costume and gather treats.  We encourage kids to invite their friends.  Usually Trunk or Treat is held the Sunday evening before Halloween.



Vacation Bible School (Preschool – Sixth Graders)
This exciting week of fun and friends brings the Bible to life in creative ways. Kids learn through interactive story time, crafts, games and snacks.  The preschoolers are separate from the elementary age kids and have the similar kinds of activities appropriate for their age.  VBS takes place Monday-Friday in the evenings.
