Our
Children’s Ministry, called the LOFT (Living Out Faith Truths),
exists to provide children and their families a spiritual support
system in which they can grow in their knowledge of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Through our enlivening, biblically-based programming, children
have the opportunity to learn about God and build a strong spiritual
foundation. Children are the future church, and it is our goal
that every child involved in our ministry would develop a lifelong
relationship with the Savior.

is current. Please return these forms to the church office. If you need a copy of the required form, you may download
