Through Godly content, creative teaching methods, resources, caring leadership, warm environment and life experiences,our children's ministry team will equip your child(ren) with a heart-felt knowledge of the Bible & a deeply personal relationship with God!  We believe the scriptures of the entire Bible are the inspired Word of God and children should memorize as many as they possibly can!  We believe that the Bible is the divine authority for our faith and our beliefs and we utilize drama, skits, and role-play to apply the Word practically to their lives. Object lessons often use fun,inflatable objects ie. telephones, boxing gloves or spacemen, to puppets and costumes, crafts and even science experiments!

So children are taught all the Christian disciplines such as prayer, witnessing, learning God's Word, worship, spiritual gifts and more!  Our intent is to present Christ and His church in such a way that firm foundations are laid and faith is grounded EARLY in life, so that when they grow up, they are established and firmly rooted in their faith.

Children will learn that God loves them and is their Best Friend.  They will learn that God gave them parents to care for them and teach them... and that they should obey their parents!  Children learn what sin is and that they can be forgiven.  And children learn to show God's love to others!

Our children enjoy field trips to the hospital or nursing homes where they hand out free flowers to the sick and pray for them!  They are taken to neighborhoods and other special places where they are taught to prayer-walk and to intercede.  They learn to share their faith at school and with their friends. 

Our children's worship team (that's right! children singing and playing instruments!) lead worship for children and adults, while other children express their worship in singing, art and dance!

Finally, children's ministry is not complete without parents who partner with us to teach, train and equip children to do the work of Christ.  Our desire is to come alongside parents to empower them to lead their children to Jesus throughout their lives!

Spencer- age 10

I really like going to my church and to Kidz Club!  Ever since I was a little kid I have heard of Jesus and that He loves me. I like all my teachers and I know they love me too.  We have lots of fun like playing games and making crafts. I like learning all the Bible stories too.  Probably what I remember most that I like is when we take flowers to the hospital.  I feel bad for the sick people but I know God can heal them so I lay my hands on them and pray.  I also want my friends at school to know about Jesus so I had a cell group during recess and I told them that He loves them and then we pray.  I don't know what I will be when I grow up, but I am sure that God knows so I will do whatever He says to do.

Zach- age 8

What I like best about God is that He helps me with bad dreams sometimes.  And sometimes when I am afraid.  And when I prayed that God would give me a house and a backyard, He did!  And when I pray for my baby sister to get better, God heals her. I really love God and all the people at my church!

Hannah - age 5

Once when my momma had a headache I prayed and asked God to heal her and He did! And when I started kindergarten I missed my mom and God helped me not be afraid to ride the bus.  I like to sing when we have the Christmas programs.  And I really like Kidz Club because I know the books of the Bible (New Testament) and do lots of fun stuff like when we dance and waive the streamers!

Cheyenne - age 12

We've only been going to CCF for about 3 years now and now I am moving up to the youth.  But I can tell you that I got saved after we came to CCF.  We never went to church much, maybe special holidays or occasions.  But when my parents started going to church, things changed!  My dad learned that he could lead us to God himself so he sat me and my twin brother down and told us how Jesus had died on the cross for our sins and so we prayed and gave our lives to Him!  And I have just loved going to our church!  There's always fun stuff to do like shaving cream wars or having pizza on works days when the whole family goes up to church to paint or work on stuff! I didn't even know I could paint, but I love it!  I have memorized lots of scripture and now I know most of the Bible stories like David and Goliath.  I read my Bible almost every night after I get home from school.  I can't wait to have my own cell groups with some of my friends! 

Haley - age 7

My mom and dad got divorced when I was a little kid and now I live with my dad and my step mom (but I call her mom too because I love her so much!).  When I asked Jesus to come into my heart, I really meant it!  And next month I'm finally going to get baptized.  I will invite my mom to come, but I'm not sure if she can make it.  I pray for my mom all the time.  My friend Alexis goes with me on Wednesday's to Kidz Club and we just love it!  This summer we kept track of all the chores I did at home so I could buy cool stuff from the Redemption Center at church!  I am working on memorizing the books of the Bible and I already have learned a lot of stuff.  My teacher thinks I am a good actress so she lets me act in the skits and I love to sing too!  I think God has made my life really good and has helped my dad to be a better dad too!

Connor - age 9

There's lots of things I love about my church!  We do lots of fun things and I have a lot of friends.  After we came to CCF and my dad got saved, my parents changed and now I do stuff with my mom and dad all the time.  My mom teaches me school and I am so glad because I like science a lot and we do fun projects at my home.  I didn't think I would like dancing, but I really like it and I think dancing in church is great!  My family sits down together and we talk about a Bible lesson and my dad teaches me devotions.  I love my dad and I thank God for changing our family!
