Children's Ministry
Children are a reward from God
~Psalm 127:3
The goal of these classes is to "bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord." (Ephesians 6:4)
Here at Word of Light we believe that learning about God should be a fun, loving experience in which the children are participants and not just observers. Our classes include active Bible reading, engaging lessons with life applications, hands on crafts and activities, an opportunity to discuss the lesson, and class prayer. We strive to help the children to know and understand the depth of Jesus love for them and to understand how special they are to Him.
Children are encouraged to hide God's word in their hearts (Psalm 119:11). To this end, we have created an incentive program to start them on the right path.
Children earn Treasure in Heaven "gems" for things such as attendance, class participation, verse memorization, bringing their Bible to class, completing assignment, and assisting others. Each quarter children are given the opportunity to use their gems to "shop" in our Children's Store where they can purchase toys, stationary sets, candies, clothes and many other treasures. To find out when our next shopping day is, please visit our events page!
In addition, we plan fellowship gatherings so children and their families have the opportunity to encourage and lift each other up in a fun, relaxed atmosphere. At these gatherings children often receive an extra reward for completing all scripture memorization of the previous quarter.
We offer a multi-age class during Sunday School for children up to 6th grade. Our Children's Church takes place during our main worship service with a nursery for children up to age 2, a Pre-K class for children ages 3-5, and an elementary class. Children participate in the worship portion of our main service and are dismissed to class before the sermon begins.
