Welcome to your Church School, Youth, Confirmation, and Family Ministry
Welcome to our page for family and kids! On this page, we post announcements, provide kids and parents access to resources, and publish events. Additionally, if you’re enrolled in confirmation, you’ll be able to find information and templates to keep notes on sermons and studies.
News You Can Use!
Church School and Confirmation Schedules have been posted!
Fall is here and that means the start of Church school and Confirmation classes on Sundays and Wednesdays. We sure hope you can join us! Want to participate in Confirmation classes? Give us a call at the church office to sign up! See you soon kids!
Blessing of the backpacks!
With school starting soon, we’re preparing for a new year by seeking God’s blessing for the kids as they head back! We’re inviting all children to bring their backpacks to church on September 14th and 17th so we can bless them together once they’ve settled into their routines. Don’t worry, we’ll remind everyone each week. See you there!
Installation of teachers on September 14th and 17th
That’s right! It’s time to return to church school. Let’s come together to bless our teachers and reconnect with familiar faces while meeting new ones. See you there!
Calling all 3rd and 4th graders!
You will receive a Bible this fall, so we want to make sure not to miss anyone! Let Pastor or Connie in the office know of the 3rd/4th graders in your family!
Calling all 6th graders!
We are gearing up for confirmation in the fall and again, don’t want to miss anyone! Call the church office at 701-223-1001 to let us know your 6th grader will be part of confirmation this fall!
Take it on the go!
