MINISTRIES

Next Gen Ministry

We currently have openings in the nursery (babies under age 1), and primary class (ages 6-10). All the other classes are full or have limited availabilty. This year, we will provide Bible teaching for children ages 1-10. Scripture memory verse songs, prayer practice and suggestions for fun home activities. These components introduce and reinforce the teaching aim for each week's lesson. We connect with every child to remind them about Jesus' wonderful love for them. We serve to connect with and support parents as they teach and train their children to live out God's truths in their lives. We welcome your children to experience the love of Jesus through the loving servants in our CBS NextGen Ministry program this year.
