CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
Backyard Sunday School
Led by Todd Erickson our Director of Children's Ministries and assisted by a dedicated group of volunteer teachers, our Sunday School program helps children to know the spiritual traditions of our faith, while encouraging them to understand more deeply how to love God and their neighbors. Our classes meet during our 10 a.m. worship, following the time with children, typically at about 10:15 a.m. Students in the 4th through 8th grades remain in worship on the first Sunday of each month. We need every child attending our program to register so that we know your child's needs and how to contact a parent should the need arise.
