Children

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things He planned for us long ago.

Ephesians 2:10

Welcome to United Family Church where we LOVE kids! It’s our joy to partner with parents to help kids know God and grow in a relationship with Him!

We are here to help children:
Experience God & understand the Bible (prayer)
Develop healthy relationships (community)
Serve those around them (missions)

Sunday Mornings at United Family Church:

Elementary age children begin Sunday mornings in the main service. We want them to learn how to worship, pray, and enjoy God’s Presence with their church family. They are dismissed to their own service after the offering. Parents are welcome to walk their child to his/her class or let them walk upstairs with the other kids.
Our current class breakdown: Nursery/Preschool (Birth – 5 years), Elementary (kindergarten – 5th grade.

Our elementary services are engaging, fun, and focus on helping kids get to know Jesus. Kids enjoy games, puppets, object lessons, crafts, prizes, and Bible stories.

“I love Children’s Church because we get to have a lot of fun and I also love it because we get to learn about God!” Taylor, age 11
