Make a Difference
Bert Fersner

Preschool and Children's ministries covers a variety of opportunities using different God-given gifts and talents. There are various Sunday School classes, discipleship groups, choir and mission education opportunities, special events and much more. Laying a strong biblical foundation in the lives of children for salvation and discipleship makes a far reaching impact on them and their families. We have wonderful resources and training opportunities available to help you as you teach and lead children. Sincerely ask the Lord how He would have you make a difference in the life of a child.

Adults table
There's A Place for You
Michael Atkinson

Adult ministries cover a wide variety of opportunities. There are classes, small groups, community ministries, and the list goes on. Seeing adults "get it" is one of the most rewarding experiences a person can have. We have many adults who are hungry for Bible study and for practical discipleship classes. Training for either area is always available. If your heart is right, then God can use you in many different ways.
