Birth—5th Grade
We want every kid who attends our church to experience the love of God in a safe, fun, and caring environment. We desire to partner with families as they teach their kids who God is and how to live for Him. Through Faith Kids, kids are connected with believers and are growing in their relationship with Jesus.
6th—12th Grade
Faith Students exists to partner with parents by providing an environment that empowers students to own their faith. Our desire is to see students integrate into the life of the Church, for the sake of advancing the Gospel through the local church and within their community.

UPCOMING EVENTS:
Truth Trackers
Truth Trackers provides a Scripture memory program that contains the following well-designed qualities:
-
Truth Trackers teaches children a God-centered view of life as they learn doctrinal truth through Scripture memory, daily devotions, and weekly lessons.
-
Truth Trackers points children to the hope of Christ our Redeemer through the Forgiven Visitor Booklet, strategic nights of evangelism, and our gospel-saturated curriculum.
-
Truth Trackers enables children to memorize God’s Word and to know Bible answers to life’s questions. We do this with:
A Catechism Format - Our verses are organized in a catechistic-format whereby children are asked a life-question and respond with the corresponding verse-answer.
Meditation to Memorization - Truth Journals enable children to daily meditate on God’s Word through repetition, kinesthetic learning, and review, which aids in long-term retention.
Kinesthetic - Learning Truth Journals provide tools for children to memorize the Scripture with a multidisciplinary approach.
-
Truth Trackers aims to disciple children with a curriculum that incorporates the following components:
A Doctrinal Scope and Sequence - Truth Trackers’ verses and lessons are organized into 18 doctrinal themes. Those doctrines are further divided into 3 years represented by color years: Green Year, Red Year, and Blue Year.
An Integrated Curriculum - Different age levels learn the same doctrinal truths at the same time.
Church & Family Discipleship - Truth Trackers connects truth learned at church to discipleship at home.
Truth Journals - Truth Journals are designed to help a child LOCK-IN truth every day through Scripture meditation and LIVE-OUT faith through daily devotions.
Apologetics - Truth Trackers prepares children to give a reasoned defense of the hope found in Christ (1 Peter 3:15).
-
Truth Trackers makes memorizing the Bible and learning doctrine fun. We do that with:
Levels of Learning - We explain essential doctrinal concepts in a simple, age appropriate way.
Incentives - Children can earn awards throughout the year.
A Resource Center - We provide resources that equip church clubs to be intentional, engaging, and enjoyable.
Easy Transition – Truth Trackers is easy for a church to transition to from other kids programs that utilizes a 3 part division to the night (Scripture Memory, Lesson, and Games). Truth Trackers utilizes a similar structure with the addition of daily devotionals.

Upcoming Faith Student Events
Special Needs Ministry
Sometimes families come to Faith with children who require a little more TLC than other children. We want to go over and above to help these children and their families feel welcome, loved and valued. We desire to help them understand the message of God’s unconditional love by providing an opportunity for families of those with special needs to worship, attend a Faith Group, and serve within the church. That is why we have a special needs program called JOY Ministry.
Each child is unique and has a unique set of needs. Once we are aware of a child who will need a buddy, or if we think a child will benefit from one, we will connect with his or her parent(s) to find out the best way to care for their child. Our goal is to help them participate in Faith Kids to the best of their ability, to feel successful, and to understand the deep love of Christ. We will try to provide a buddy whose focus will solely be on that child. Buddies are not responsible for anything else in that room, except to help their designated child have a great experience while at Faith. As children move into Faith Students, their buddy can be less hands on but still be present in the classroom.
