A Message from Lisa:
"It is my mission to support and work with volunteers to provide meaningful, spiritual and educational activities for the children and youth of our church.
Growing in numbers is a blessing, but growing in grace and knowledge and spreading the love and grace of Jesus Christ is the goal of our ministry. It is our hope that in teaching the Word and sharing God's love with the children, they will receive the blessing of the community and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior so that they will live a life that will glorify God!
Our programs are designed to develop relationships with one another and with God so that we can move toward the goal of loving one another and loving God.
Blessings,
Lisa
