Early Childhood
Little ones are precious in God’s sight and in ours and we welcome them with open arms.  We provide safe, secure, loving care for our youngest family members in our Early Childhood environments during both services.  These classes are divided by developmental stage.
  • Infant Nursery – infants from birth until they begin walking.
  • Toddler Class – walkers through children who are walking, up to 3 years old.
  • Preschool Class – children who are 3 years old and potty trained, and 4 years old (Pre-Kindergarten) receive age appropriate Bible teaching combined with hands-on activities and engaging interaction with their teachers.
Discovery Kids
Children in Kindergarten through 3rd Grade worship together with the preteens and middle schoolers in a large group setting at the beginning of each service.  After that, we provide two classroom environments for each service:
  • Kindergarten and 1st Grade
  • 2nd and 3rd Grades
Early elementary aged kids are encouraged to come and be a part of the many fun activities and valuable friendships as we learn more about God’s big story, grow stronger in our relationships with Jesus, and learn to respond to what He is teaching us through His Word.
Bridge 54
Bridge 54 is designed to be a bridge between elementary and middle school. Fourth and fifth graders are in a transitional stage so we offer a Sunday School class designed specifically for 4th and 5th graders to meet them at their level of maturity both intellectually and spiritually.

What is Midweek?
MidWeek happens every Wednesday night from 6:30-8:00 pm at Discovery. MidWeek is open to 6th-12th grade students. Dinner is served each week starting at 6:00 pm. You can expect music, games, friendships, small groups, and a practical and relevant message from God’s Word connecting with what you as a student experience and need in today’s culture.   GENERAL WEDNESDAY NIGHT (MIDWEEK) YOUTH GROUP SCHEDULE: High School                                                                              Middle School 6:00-6:30 Doors open, food, hangout                                6:00-6:30 Doors open, food, hangout 6:30-6:40 Games                                                                    6:30-7:00 Games 6:40-7:00 Lesson (large group)                                            7:00-7:15 Worship (music) w/ HS 7:00-7:15 Worship (music) combined with MS                  7:15-7:30 Lesson (large group) 7:15-8:00 Small Groups                                                         7:30-8:00 Small Groups
Middle School
On top of our primary Middle School program on Wednesday nights, you can join the middle school group for a Sunday morning class in the youth room each week as well as special events and camps throughout the year.
High School
Our primary gathering for students happens on Wednesday nights. On top of that, we hope to have our high school students engage in multi-generational worship together at either our 9:00 or 10:30 am services. We offer a high school specific class on sunday mornings during the 9:00 service time in the youth room. We are currently discussing apologetics. We also have several opportunities for our High School students to express their faith in practical ways through service in the local church. Contact Pastor Matt to talk about ways to get involved.
