CHILDREN
Claudia Burch, Director of Children’s Ministries, works hard to provide a safe, inviting, and loving environment for preschoolers and children. Dedicated volunteers strive each week to share the love of Christ with every child. Because consistency is important for a preschooler’s development, a consistent group of teachers greets them with eager enthusiasm each Sunday. Pagers are used with newborn children and preschoolers in case parents are needed. In addition to Sunday morning Bible study, Claudia and the Children’s Ministry Committee provide a variety of children’s activities. (Click here for additional opportunities for children.)
