VISION

Ministries of excellence to equip and inspire youth to live a life led by Jesus Christ.

Children Ministries

We have faith-building programs and events for every member in your family that aim to make an impact at every age and stage.

Sunday School

During Sunday School kids will experience God’s love and grow deeper in faith all while growing their relationship in Jesus Christ. Be part of this exciting journey for our youth.

Sunday School classes are available for ages preschool (three by September 15th) through high school. Additionally, there is an adult Sunday School class.

There are no yawns or boredom looks during Redeemer’s Sunday School classes. We do fun, hands on activities to really experience and bring to life the messages in the Bible. Last year we: walked on egg shells, polished pennies, played games, acted out skits and lots more.

Registration for 2017 – 18 School Year coming soon. Walk-ins always welcome at Sunday School too.

Meeting Date and Time is Sundays at 9:30am – 10:30am from September 11th through the Sunday before Memorial Day.

Marty’s Kids

Marty’s Kids is for 3rd – 6th graders and is about having fun around faith building activities. We purposely plan activities throughout the year with a focus on service, fellowship, sharing, and key character traits from the Bible. Our aim is for kids to have positive experiences so they understand what leading a life by Christ can look and feel like.

Meeting Date and Time: Wednesdays starting end of September from 7 -8pm. We know many children have sports and other activities throughout the year. Whenever your schedule permits, join us on Wednesday evenings. Kids tell us they look forward to it and have a hard time leaving.

 

Family Events

Throughout the year we organize family events to get entire families, kids, parents, adults, and grandparents all together doing a hands-on experience related to the season.

Rally Sunday – this is the Sunday after Labor Day and is an opportunity to ask questions and learn about the many service and educational ministries at Redeemer. It is held after the Sunday Service with games, fun and a pork roast. We also have a bounce house, face painting and outdoor games for kids.

Advent – the first Sunday after Thanksgiving we kick-off Advent with a meaningful activity and craft to get everyone focused on the coming birth of Jesus.

Lent – this occurs during Lent and is a way to enrich the journey following Jesus to the cross.

Summer Fun – a couple times through the summer we take advantage of the hot summer sun and have a picnic and water fun for the entire congregation. Games, food and fun – a great way to celebrate the beautiful outdoors.

Children’s Faith Milestones

3rd Grade Bibles – this is a special day when we remember our baptismal promises to faithfully bring children to worship in God’s house, place the Holy Scripture in their hands, and provide for their instruction in the Christian Faith. Each 3rd grader is presented with a Bible during worship. These Bibles are easy to read and are a great resource for kids and parents! Children are encouraged to read and use their Bible throughout their faith journey.

First Communion – we offer First Communion instruction for 5th graders. First Communion is an important step in faith development. There is no prerequisite for the First Communion classes. Our First Communion classes are a means of helping those receiving to better understand and appreciate Holy Communion and this awesome gift of grace before they start receiving it. They learn more about God’s love for them through Jesus, have the opportunity to break bread for their celebration. The Sunday then following the instruction they typically will receive their first communion and are recognized during worship.  First Communion classes typically are offered in late Spring.
