Children, Youth & Family Ministries

Children, Youth & Family Ministries (CYFM) is all about helping young people discover God's love, build lasting friendships, and grow in faith together. With weekend and midweek opportunities for ages 3 through high school, there's a place to learn, serve, laugh, and belong at every stage. 


CYFM Mission Sunday and Back to School Blessing. Sunday, August 23, at all worship services! 

We'll celebrate what God has been doing through our Children, Youth, and Family Ministries with stories from youth who served on mission trips this summer, a Back-to-School Blessing for all ages, and a look ahead at the exciting year of ministry to come.
