Partnering With Families to Nurture Faith
We believe the Bible clearly teaches that the family unit - especially parents - is the primary source and center for discipleship in the lives of children and teens. We also believe the Bible is equally clear that it is the role of the Church body to come alongside parents in this pursuit and help them in the disciple-making process.
Whether your child is a newborn in the Nursery or a 12th grader preparing to graduate, the mission we cultivate in our next generation is the same at every age: to bring glory to God by believing in Jesus, belonging to His family, becoming His disciple, and building His kingdom.
Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.Deuteronomy 11:18-19

Nursery & Preschool
Our Nursery & Preschool area gives your child a first impression of our Heavenly Father and the wonder of His love. We strive for it to be a vibrant, exciting place where we support you as parents in introducing your children to the One who made them. During the weekend service, we experience the love of Jesus and celebrate Him in many different forms - we sing, we teach the Bible, we play, and we snack. In all our activities, we seek to highlight these basic gospel truths: God is good, God made everything, God loves us, God wants to be with us, and Jesus rescued us.
Our volunteers are all background checked and required to complete training sessions each year, with your child’s security and well-being as a focus. To prevent the spread of illness, we diligently uphold our wellness policy. Please review the policy and help us maintain a healthy environment for our precious little ones! In addition, be sure to let us know of any conditions, allergies, or medical needs that may apply to your child.

Elementary
Our Elementary area is designed to be an interactive and engaging place where kids can grow together as they learn more about how they are part of God’s Story. We celebrate the glory of God through worship, Bible stories, memorization, and play. Our desire is to partner with parents in discipling their children and growing these faithful practices: studying the Bible, applying Truth, sharing our Hope, worshiping with our lives, and prayer.

Middle School (6th - 8th Grade)
Our Middle School Ministry seeks to further develop the foundation of our students’ faith in the work of Christ. We do this by focusing on our identity and purpose in Jesus Christ and living actively in gospel community. Students in middle school will begin to experience what it is like to belong to a church family through our small groups. Our desire is to support parents as they walk with their students in pressing deeper into their personal faith through community with their friends, their mentors, and above all, God.
Small Groups exist to create a safe place for students to process the large group teaching together and talk through what it looks like to be transformed by God. Groups are divided by grade and gender and typically have 10-14 students paired with at least two adult leaders who have been screened and trained.
For more information about our Middle School Ministry, contact Green Student Ministry.

High School (9th - 12th Grade)
Our High School Ministry looks to partner with parents in the continued discipleship of their high schoolers. We seek for our students to grow in their personal faith by exploring these themes from a gospel-centered perspective: identity, community, freedom, and becoming a disciple. Students gather weekly for times of worship and teaching as well as small group discussions.
