Children's Ministry

Our "Good Soil Children's Ministry" is ​committed to providing a safe and loving environment for your child to grow in Christ. We want our church to be the "Good Soil" where children grow and flourish; where they make friends and feel welcome in our church family.
​
Safety is important! All teachers and volunteers are carefully selected and screened so that your child is not just protected but nurtured. Every volunteer must go through a background check and safety training as part of the Methodist Church MinistrySafe guidelines.

​If you have questions or would like to volunteer, please contact Susan Rudnickas, Children's Ministry Coordinator, at: [email protected].

Roots Youth Ministry

Our youth group activities and events are for all students in 6th through 12th grades. Please click the drop-down menu above for Roots Student Ministry.

Current Children's Programs

We offer activities and classes for infants through those in 5th grade. ​For more information, please click on the drop-down menu above for details on Ministry Safe. Training is required for everyone who interacts with children and youth in our church building, Sunday School, and Nursery.
​

Sundays

Children's Chapel - Pre-K to 5th Grade
Sundays during the 9:30am worship service, Room #106

**Please note: Children's Chapel will not meet on Sunday, December 21 (Children's Christmas Pageant at 11:00), Sunday, December 28, and Sunday, January 4.**


​​Children start out with their parents during the service, then are dismissed to hear a Bible story and participate in fun activities. Parents pick up their children following the service.

Jeanne Hurley returns as our Leader and Melissa Taylor is our Co-Leader. We are always looking for servants to help on Sundays during our 9:30 service. If you are interested in helping weekly, monthly, or even just one or two Sundays, please email our Children's Ministry Coordinator, Susan, at [email protected].

We provide a safe environment for all youth and children with fully-trained teaches and helpers.

How can you be a part of this exciting week?

• Register your child - they will be in the grade they just
completed this school year.

• Give financially to help with the snacks and fun!
 If giving by check, please note “VBS” in the memo. No amount is too small!
