Children's Ministries
Partnering with you in raising fearless followers
our dream
We want children to discover who Jesus is, learn to follow him, and to fearlessly make him known.
What can I Expect?
Every child is a disciple of Jesus.
Cultivate Kids creates safe and creative environments for children of all abilities to learn biblical truths through interactive story-telling, activities and collaborative art projects. In partnership with families, we help kids follow Jesus with all their heart, mind and soul, and to fearlessly love and serve others like Jesus.
Weekend classes are available at the same time as the adult services. We respect your role as the primary spiritual leader in your child’s life so you will check your child into Cultivate Kids before the service, but Kindergarten through 4th grade will stay with their families for the first part of the service. A host from the stage with invite kids to continue in worship in Cultivate Kids.
Cultivate Kids teachings try to be identical, no matter the campus. We also support and participate in various other programs and activities throughout the year. Cultivate Kids is available for children birth – 4th grade.
