Sunday School

Sunday School is offered at 9 am on Sunday mornings for children 3 years old through 5th grade (September-May). In Sunday School the kids go on a chronological journey through the entire Bible where they see God’s power, God’s people, and God’s promises centered in Jesus Christ. Children in preschool will begin and end their time in Room 10.  Kindergarten through 5th graders begin in the RecZone for large group time and end in their age-appropriate small group rooms where the Bible story is reinforced through questions, crafts, or other activities.

Discovery Club

Discovery Club is our Wednesday night program for children 3 years old through 5th grade. It runs during the school year (September-May) and goes from 5:45-7:00 pm. Like Sunday School, Discovery Club is bible story-based and interactive, designed to help children know, love, and follow Jesus. All children meet in the RecZone for opening. Preschoolers leave for Room 10 at 6:00, and K-5 children stay in the RecZone for large group time. All children end the evening in age-appropriate small group rooms where the Bible story is reinforced through questions, crafts, or other activities.

Upcoming Events

2025-2026 Family Ministry Calendar

The Fam Jam Podcast

Two people, a woman and a man, are holding microphones and smiling in front of a yellow background with the words 'Practical. Family. Discipleship.' above a circle containing the word 'peace' and the word 'FAMILIES' inside the circle.

The Fam Jam podcast exists to equip your family to fully live as disciples of Jesus. 

It is hosted by Caleb Haack and Anna Reineke, who have nearly 15 years of combined ministry experience as certified Directors of Christian Education. They draw on their own ministry backgrounds and experiences with teaching kids and families to discuss Biblical topics and how they relate and apply to families.

The key question the Fam Jam Podcast seeks to answer is: What does it look like to be a follower of Jesus - a disciple - in our families, so that we can live into our God-given potential? If that’s a question you are looking to answer for yourself and your family, then you’ve come to the right place. New episodes every two weeks!

VBS Highlights 2025.

With over 140 children and 50+ volunteers, VBS True North was a wonderful experience for all. Check out the video below that captures just a small portion of what the children experienced and learned in growing closer to Jesus. Most importantly, they learned they can TRUST JESUS!
