Digging Into God's Word Together – Sundays at 9:15 am

Every Sunday at 9:15 am, our kids dive into God’s Word through high-energy activities and learning —growing in faith, wonder, and wisdom. While they grow, we invite you to do the same. Join one of our three Bible studies happening at the same time. It's a powerful way to model faith for your children and be spiritually fed yourself.


New students and friends are welcome anytime!

Confirmation

Confirmation is a 2-year discipleship endeavor. Students enter Confirmation at the start of their 7th-grade year and go until the end of October in their 9th-grade year (with summers off). Confirmation provides a learning environment for students to explore what it means to be a Christian, ask deep questions of themselves, God, and church leaders, and ultimately culminates in them making a public confession of faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
