Children
We have an ongoing Children’s Sunday School program to instruct young people in the many important lessons in our Bible and our church. We are presently learning about the Ten Commandments and their meaning in our everyday lives. At the same time as children’s Sunday school, we offer an Adult Bible Study instructed by our Pastor.
For both Christmas and Easter, our youth present a program including a performance to enrich both celebrations with an in-depth view of the story of Jesus Christ’s birth and His Resurrection.
Each summer, in the last week of June, we offer a Vacation Bible School (VBS) camp for the local community. Stories, music, games, crafts, scientific experiments and snacks – all fun and all related to the Bible and its many truths. LEARN MORE AND REGISTER YOUR CHILD TODAY!
Youth
Youth Ministry at Grace is open to all teens in 6th grade and above – even those not members of Grace. We work together in service, growing in faith, becoming comfortable sharing our faith, and having fun in fellowship with other Christian teens.
