Family Ministries

Family Ministries cultivate curriculum, worship, and fellowship opportunities that allow children, youth, and families to discover and grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and share God’s love with others. The success of Family Ministries is made possible through volunteers. A special monthly email, Family Ministries’ Minute, is sent to all families with children and communicates each month’s events.
