Children's Ministry exists to:

  • Share Christ with the children of our community.
  • Team them with other Christians and,
  • Advance them in their spiritual maturity, helping them to
  • Recognize their spiritual gifts and to
  • Surrender their lives to God.

We also desire to partner with and support families by empowering parents to be effective in teaching and training their children about Christ. Our ministry to children is accomplished through a variety of programs highlighted below.

9:30 am - 12:10 pm
0-2 yrs: Nursery Room
2-3 yrs: Preschool Room

During our worship services, we offer nursery care for newborns thru 3 years of age. It is our joy to provide care for your children! While we’re changing diapers, God is changing lives. Nursery labels are utilized to ensure authorized pick-up and the safety of our little ones. We use a pager system in case parental attention is needed during the service.

11:00 am - 12:10 pm
Ages 4 - 8

During our 11:00 am worship service we offer a separate worship service designed specifically for young children. We call it Kid's Own Worship (KOW). Children learn to worship, sing praise songs, listen to Bible lessons. Drama is incorporated through puppets and stories. This program develops children’s hearts for God and prepares them to transition into our main Worship Service.

Baseball Clinic
Usually March & August
Boys & Girls ages 7-14

This is an extension of our Sports Camp ministry with a goal in mind of integrating sports with an introduction to Jesus, as well as helping children understand that they can bring glory to God in all that they do (1 Co. 10:31).

Our instructor, Joe Steele, has more than 20 years experience coaching High School baseball, is a certified coach for the State of Connecticut and is a member of Connecticut High School Coaches Association. Joe has served as a Youth Leader as well as a volunteer coach for Trinity’s Sports Camp.   

 
Missions

We encourage our kids to be “World Minded.” Each of our programs throughout the year sponsors a missions project to help kids think beyond themselves. Whether it’s supporting a local handicap child or helping to build a soccer facility in Guatemala City, we believe these projects help children see the value in helping others, as well as the importance of sharing Christ with those who don’t know Him.
