Christ Church Children's programs raise up kids who love Jesus and seek to serve Him in all areas of life. The Children's Ministry offers supervised Biblical learning in a joyful and child-centered environment. Some highlights of 2023 include noticeable growth in our Nursery program. To better help this age group grow in their relationship with Jesus, we started a new curriculum that seems to be popular with kids as well as adults.
Our Preschoolers and Kindergarteners now have their own separate program from our elementary kids so that we can better attend to their developmental needs.
One of our goals for 2024 is to provide 4th/5th graders a curriculum that addresses their need to go deeper in their understanding of the Bible as well as how to live out their faith in their everyday lives.

stellar: shine jesus’ light
VBS continues to be extremely popular with both our Christ Church kiddos, as well as many attendees from our community. The theme, Stellar was “out of this world” as we journeyed into space with 115 children and 64 volunteers. It takes a village to pull this production off every year, but it is well worth it. The children enjoyed singing new songs, playing and meeting new friends, and most importantly learning all about Jesus’ love and how they can shine His light in the world. When all was said and done, we were proud to have 23 professions of Faith during the week of adventure.
