Connecting Kids to God and Others
Kids Ministry
Preschool
We believe that even the youngest little ones need to hear about and experience the love of Jesus Christ. Our teachers and volunteers provide activities, songs, and lessons about Jesus and His Love for babies through Kindergarten children each time they attend any of our Preschool Ministry programs.
Elementary
It is important that an Elementary child continue to hear, learn, and experience God’s Love. We desire to assist parents in the continuation of laying the spiritual foundation that will eventually lead to the child’s decision to accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior.
The leaders in our Elementary Ministry focus on teaching the children about the Bible through discussion, games, crafts, songs, and other activities. It is our desire that children are not only taught truth from God’s Word, but also how to apply His Word to their daily lives.
Midweek Kids
We are excited that your kiddo will be joining us, and we look forward to partnering with you in building the faith of your child! Our goal is to help kids to know Jesus Christ, and to grow in a relationship with Him.
Upward Sports
Yearly we offer Upward Basketball and Cheerleading. It is a great opportunity for kids to begin and gain skill in organized sports. Upward is Christ-centered. We give every kid equal time to play and balance the teams skill levels so there is great competition and fair play. Upward is great for beginners and seasoned players alike.
