Let the little ones
come.
Kids are part of our worship, not an add-on. Every Sunday at 9:30, children come forward for a children's moment — a short, hands-on lesson with movement, call-and-response, and a blessing spoken over them in front of the whole church.
“Let the little children come to me.” — Matthew 19:14How it works
