To know Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and to make Him known

Dear Families,

I look forward to embracing our church’s mission and learning to know Jesus Christ in a deeper way through my ministry with our church’s youngest members.

Children have an innate response of abiding joy to God. Through our Sunday school, children learn to name their connection to God and become active members of our church family through personal prayer, liturgical celebrations, and persons of faith in our community.

Thank you for making Sunday morning an important part of your family’s life.
