From the Heart of our Director

For Our Youth Parents

I just want to say "Thank You" to all my parents, the backbone to our ministry. Below you will find pictures of the Confirmation Service Project at Lettuce Live Urban Farm. Not pictured are the many parents and teens that showed up and showed out this past Saturday (as we socially distanced) while feeding over 500 during this time of need for many. Thank you parents!!!
 
Still, this new "normal" has not been easy in the least bit if I am being truly honest. Yet, I thank God for it.
 
Almost daily, I have had a "Come to Jesus" moment. Lifting my hands in full surrender. I am sure that many of you have had similar experiences (especially if your day-to-day household operations have changed dramatically.)
 
More than that, each of us is aware that what God want's most of us right now is to focus our attention on HIM! These words from the song, "Yield not to Temptation", were shared with me today and helped remind me that in Jesus, our Savior, I find my strength!
 
"Just ask the Savior to help you
To comfort, strengthen and keep you
He is willing to aid you
And He will carry you through."

 

In His Arms,

theWAY Nursery seeks to share and teach the love of Jesus Christ to our youngest children (new-born to 4-years old). In a safe, fun-filled environment, the ministry engages children through song, craft, games, and other interactive activities that enhance their ability to learn about the love of Jesus Christ.

CHILDRENS' CHURCH

Childrens' Church is a worship experience focused totally on children and building their understanding of the Bible and promoting a meaningful relationship with God. Children’s Church celebrates all the ministries that are provided for children and gives the children involved, a weekly opportunity to display what they are learning in many unique and creative ways.

CHERUB CHOIR

Cherub Choir is open to children ages 3 through 1st grades. If your child loves music, loves to sing, and loves to have fun, this is their choir. This Music Ministry’s goal is to build self-esteem in children by helping them accomplish something great for God. Our goal, also, includes teaching the spiritual truth that will soak deep into the children’s hearts that will provide an outlet for musical and dramatic expression.

ACOLYTES

The Acolyte Ministry assists in leading the congregation in worship each Sunday by lighting the altar candles at the beginning of each worship and extinguishing them at its conclusion. We invite all children and youth to participate.

SCHOLARSHIPS

We believe in the power of education to change the destiny of our children who will change the destiny of our people. Each child of our church who graduates and chooses to go to college will receive a church scholarship. These scholarships are given each year through the generosity and love for children of our late members Mrs. Willie C. Robinson and Mr. & Mrs. Nathaniel & Margie Duty.
