Children's Sabbath School Classes

​

Children are an important part of our church family, and Sabbath School is designed to help them know Jesus, understand His Word, and grow in faith. Each age group enjoys Bible-based lessons created for their stage of development, exploring the stories and teachings of Scripture while encouraging a personal and lasting relationship with Christ.

Children’s Story

​

Following Sabbath School, our church family gathers in the sanctuary for worship, where children are an important part of the service. During the Children’s Story, they are invited to the front for a brief Christ-centered message and may also participate in collecting the Lamb’s Offering. Baskets are available at the back center aisle of the sanctuary when the Children’s Story is announced.
