Children's
Ministry
Train a child in the way he should go
and when he is old, he will not turn from it.
Proverbs
22:6

Mission
Statement:
We are called to plant the seeds of Jesus' Love in the
children of Grace Fellowship and our surrounding
communities. Like a gardener, our job is to water and
nurture these tiny plants as they bloom into mature
Christian young adults.
We also provide an opportunity for the caretakers of these
"little buds" to fill their water tanks!
At Grace Fellowship we offer Sunday School for children as
early as three years old. Each child is offered an age
appropriate lesson about the Bible and God's love! Sunday
School begins at 9:00 am and ends at 9:45 am. Parents,
please come join one of the adult Sunday School classes
while your child is in Sunday School!
After Sunday School, children and adults congregate in the
Fellowship Hall for a time of fellowship, juice or milk and
a donut.
Our church services begin at 10:15. The families all gather
together in the sanctuary for the beginning part of worship
and then the children ages 3 to 3rd grade are dismissed for
Children's Church. Here, the kids do a variety of
activities like object lessons, singing, drama, games, and
crafts to make the lesson come to life! For the older
children, we offer activity pages each week located in the
basket with the clipboards at the back of the church.
Nursery - Also see "Nursery" page
Our nursery is always staffed with smiling, loving adults
who are willing to rock and play with your infant/toddler.
The nursery doors are open to children from six weeks to
three years old.
