Through Family Ministries, we help children and preteens grow in their faith in ways that are appropriate for their age. They will experience how God is present with them and "participate in the life of the church" through Sunday School, corporate worship, other group educational experiences, and through acts of mission and service. Children and preteens will have the opportunity to learn the Bible, practice the Spiritual Disciplines, and to serve God and neighbor.

Our Adult Ministries are designed to help deepen and grow individudal relationships with God. Building our belief to grow our faith happens through areas of personal study in the Bible, prayer, fellowship and congregational worship. As one's faith grows, adults are equipped or called by God to serve in many areas of the church such as Sunday School teachers, Children's Church leaders, Vacation Bible School leaders, United Methodist Men, United Methodist Women, Missions... in the area in which God has given us a passion. Christian Education gives the tools to reach out and minister to others.
