Children’s Ministry

Children’s Ministry

Christian Education at Grace Lutheran is a true joy to be a part of. Our numbers are small, but this allows for an intimate study of our Lord in children’s Sunday school, through our special service preparations (Palm Sunday and Christmas) and during fun youth activities. All our member children know one another, no matter the age difference, from elementary to high school ages.

VBS at Grace

Our most exciting event in Christian Ed is most certainly our VBS – Vacation Bible Schooll!! Every summer, during the last week of June, our small group, not just the youth, but MANY church volunteers and friends host VBS for all who wish to attend. This special outreach has allowed us to make and keep new Christian friends from our community as well as from out of the area. It is exciting when children on vacation choose to spend some of their time learning and worshipping God with us at Grace!
