Ministry Note - June 13, 2019

Did you know we have a Life Group specially designed for our youngest worshippers? Every Sunday during the message, preschoolers through 6th graders meet up in the gym to get to know Jesus and each other better. We study the Bible, play games, make art, laugh a lot, pray, and generally share life together.  A big thank you to the volunteers who come alongside these little people every week. They model the Word, share the supplies, and live out their deeply rooted joy in Jesus!
