Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14
We’re here to partner with you in raising a generation of fully devoted followers of Christ. Our goal is to provide a loving, Christ-centered environment where your child can learn God’s Word, grow in faith, and have fun along the way. Through engaging lessons, meaningful relationships, and fun activities, kids will discover what it means to know Jesus, obey His Word, and share His love. Our leaders love Jesus and are committed to guiding children to become all that God has created them to be.
Nursery and Preschool
Nursery | Life Groups and Worship
Our nursery offers childcare for bed babies, crawlers, walkers, and 2-year-olds. Your child will be watched by one of our volunteers who are trained and have completed a background check.
Preschool Life Groups and Church
Our Preschool Life Groups and Church has been uniquely designed for this age group! Each week is a creative time where we teach young kids more about Jesus. If your child stays for Life Groups and Worship, you will pick them up where you dropped them off for Life Groups.
Elementary | 1st–4th Grade
Life Groups
Each one of our Life Groups has been uniquely designed for our various age groups of kids! Each week is a fun and creative time where we teach and help young kids learn more about Jesus. Through songs and creative games, Jesus comes alive to the children, and they can learn to hide His word in their hearts.
Kids Church
During Kids Church, we have a time of song and worship and have an opportunity to learn from the Word of God through a message. Your child will go directly to the kids’ service from their Life Group rooms and return to their rooms, where parents should pick them up after the morning worship service.
Preteens | 5th+6th Grade
Life Groups
Our preteens are encouraged to attend a Preteen Life Group and then worship with their parents. Life Groups are located in the Preteen Hallway of the Family Life Center (FLC Gym). If you or your child need help finding their life group, visit our Welcome Center in the main worship building.
CrossTraining Ministry
CrossTraining is our Wednesday Night Ministry for our Preteens. Preteens meet upstairs in the Family Life Center (FLC Gym), where they memorize Scripture, play exciting games, worship through music, and experience dynamic teaching on Wednesday Nights at 6:00 PM.
Wednesdays with Second Kids | 6:00 PM
On Wednesday nights throughout the school year, our Second Kids take part in Awana. Awana is a program that gives your child a strong foundation of faith through music, games, verse memorization, and discipling to walk with Christ for life! Join us on Wednesday nights for Midweek beginning at 6:00 PM!
About our Shine Ministry
“I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, and my soul knows it very well.” | Psalm 139:14
The Shine Ministry exists to welcome and serve families with special needs children. We believe every child is wonderfully made by God, and our goal is to provide a safe, loving environment where each child can learn about Jesus in a way that fits their unique needs.
We currently serve children from K5 to 4th grade through our Sunday morning Buddy Program, which takes place during Life Group and Kids Church.
Because our ministry is growing quickly, we cannot accommodate walk-ins or unscheduled guests at this time.
Please fill out our Shine Ministry Inquiry Form so we can best prepare to serve your family.
Our volunteers—church members with a heart for special needs—are essential to this ministry.
