Jr. Baptism & Membership Class | Sundays, February 2-23

Register HERE

This 4-week class, taught by Wally Hoppe, provides your child with information about salvation/personal testimony, baptism, the meaning of communion, and church membership. We encourage any child in grades 3-6 who have expressed an interest in baptism to take this class. Baptism is a very personal decision. Just because your child takes the class does not mean they have to be baptized. This class will be held in the 5th/6th grade classroom at 9 a.m., each Sunday, February 2-23. Register your child HERE.

Volunteer in JAM City

We have many opportunities to serve in different capacities in our children's department. Teachers, helpers, nursery workers, choir leaders, decorators, and organizers. Your talent could be just what we need. Most teaching and helpers positions are for Sunday mornings (and VBS). Nursery workers are needed for Sunday mornings, Wednesday evenings, and special occasions. And some jobs can be done during the week, when you are available. We'd love to work with you, serving our God together.

All volunteers go through a background check before serving with children.
