Children's Ministry
"Ministering to the Whole Child"
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. - Proverbs 22:6
Providing Christian Education for every Covenant Child
God's Word is Truth - John 17:17
All scripture is inspired by God and since God by His very nature cannot lie; the Bible is completely true.
- God exists and there is only one true God.
- This one True God exists in three: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
- Jesus Christ, as described in the Bible, existed in history. He took the guilt of sinners upon Himself and endured God's judgment for their sin. He redeems them by His blood.
- A person is saved by turning from his/her sins and by having faith
in the Lord Jesus Christ. There is no salvation apart from Christ.
