Children’s Ministry Mission Statement
Acknowledging our call to ministry with children, we work:
- To nurture children in the faith,
- To strengthen their ties with the household of God,
- To share the heritage of the Christian faith and the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A),
- To involve and support parents in the Christian education of their children,
- To be living examples of the Christian faith.
Understanding that children, too, are called to ministry, we work to provide opportunities for children:
- To develop community with one another,
- To use their talents for ministry to the congregation,
- To be involved in service and mission to the global community,
- To share and be joyful about their learnings and their faith.
