Family Ministry

Family Ministry is for those families who have one or more children who are not yet in sixth grade.  (Once children are in 6th grade they graduate into our Youth Ministry Program.)  From picnics to ballgames and holiday parties, we will be hosting family-friendly activities throughout the year.
