Our church takes great pride in welcoming children and youth as integral members of our Body of Christ. They play a vital role within our church community, actively engaging in worship through roles like serving as acolytes and ushers, playing handbells, singing in the choir, and presenting Christmas programs.
Beyond their involvement in worship, our young members eagerly participate in social services for our community, including events like the Brooming & Blooming and Blessing Day. Additionally, our church organizes Vacation Bible School for children and actively participates in Districtwide Youth Retreats.
