Truly we’ve seen God move in mighty ways this week and today. There’s one more picture coming - I’ll add it when it arrives.

It’s been our practice, since being in children’s ministry over 40 years, not to give public invitations. Rather, we ask children who have heard the gospel to find one of our team leaders during play time, crafts, or snacks to discuss what God has put on their heart. Why? We don’t want a “herd reaction” to happen. We want children who are willing to seek the Lord - even when it cost them from the beginning.

Praise the Lord for his abundant goodness and great salvation.

Praise the Lord for children, whose heart is to walk in obedience.

Praise the Lord for parents who support a life of growth in the body of believers!

And all God’s people shout - AMEN! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

We had two teams of worship leaders. Tucker and Hartley started the whole time but Avy couldn’t be there all the time so Mason stepped up to help!

Joshua, who had just had major surgery on his brain, volunteered to sit in one of the end chairs during a game of pool noodle volleyball. Thankfully, Mrs Colleen saw it and stood over him the entire time covering his head.

VBS 2026 Jesus: the Light of Life.
For over a year God has been moving on our hearts to build this years curriculum around John 8:12. He opened the word and brought to mind four messages. The week before VBS there was a nudging to move lessons around just a little bit.

It’s been a God- honoring, wonderful week of sharing the life of Christ with our children and adults.

The greatest blessing was to hear two express their sure salvation in Christ and desire to be baptized.

This has never been about our planning or the size of the crowd, but walking in obedience to his word, giving ALL glory to him. We’ve loved meeting every family, we’re thankful and blessed by an abundant team of servant leaders.

God’s been so very good!

Let’s go shine his light in the world around us!

These are great ideas!

We’ve had a couple of families who like to keep their children with them during the 10:30am worship service. As a church we are 100% okay with that and any child noises that comes along with it.

We do have nursery, preschool, and children’s church available during that time as well. However, we wanted to offer an activity box for those who choose to stay in the main service.

There’s an empty notebook, stickers, a stamper, a coloring book, crayons, and I’m going to put a welcome letter in there with upcoming activities.

They’ll be available for children ages 2-5 (older children, please do not take these). You’ll find boxes under the white table in the back of the sanctuary.

Families can take the boxes home with them after church.
