Children’s Ministry Vision

At FWBFUMC our vision is to create a safe and fun environment for every child to walk with God: to learn, to know, and to experience His love. We want to team with you in the discipleship of your child, guiding them in a relationship with our Lord.

 

Our Goals are to:

  • Encounter God
  • Grow Closer to others
  • Get Excited to share Jesus

Sunday School

Sunday School meets at 9:45 a.m. in the Aquarium for announcements and a video lesson. After the video, they divide into age-appropriate groups ages fourth to fifth grade.

 

Our ministry is designed to teach children how to become dedicated disciples of Christ. We strive to achieve this through the following goals:

  • Teaching them Bible Stories that guide them in life applications which are pleasing to God.
  • Teaching them how to use their Bible.
  • Teaching them how to share Christ’s love and grace.

  • Having a helpful attitude & warm acceptance of your child’s well-being.
  • By accepting each little one in Jesus’ name.
  • Showing love and respect for each child.

 

Our nursery is:

  • Available for children three and under during the worship services.

We want to team with you in the discipleship of your child, by building a foundation of trust and lasting friendships built on God.
