Youth Programs

Worship

Children’s Sunday School is at 10:15 am. If you prefer your child to remain in sanctuary during worship there is an area with a table, crayons, coloring pages, and books available by the north entrance. Children can hang out there during worship or take what they would like to use and sit with parents. They can feel free to get up to get different things during the service as well. 

Church Camps

Each summer we encourage children and youth to attend camp at Camp Walter Scott in Dieterich, Illinois. The church helps support children financially to attend and we have some counselors in our congregation too!

Mission Trips

Our youth who have completed 6th-12th grade are also encouraged to go on a mission trip each summer. The summer of 2024 our youth attended 2 mission trips with Be The Neighbor. These trips give the youth the opportunity to help others through acts of service.

A community that gathers together to worship, pray, support, and love one another.

We are a family church which means we are first and foremost relational. Everyone knows each other's names and we are there for each other through the joys and sorrows of life. We practice incarnation ministry. Just as God sent Jesus into the world to share God's love through teaching, sharing in meals, and laughing and crying with both friends and strangers we also share God's love through our action.

We are a family which means we do not always agree with one another, we have people with various beliefs and values yet we have chosen to gather together. Because we believe God's love is greater than our ideas.
