Children's Ministry
(Grades K-5)Children’s Ministries (K-5th Grade) – Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of heaven” belongs to such as these. At Bethlehem, we believe our children offer us a glimpse of God’s love on earth, and we empower them to make a difference in the world around them, serving God in their own lives. Our KidQuest and Launch mid-week Bible Study ministry, weekly Sunday School classes, Stepping Stones milestone classes, and Vacation Bible School allow children to learn about God’s love while feeling a part of a special community and making lasting friendships. Fellowship opportunities bring families together throughout the year! For additional information on the programs below, please contact Pastor Sarah.
Available now: Children’s Ministry Calendar for winter and spring. Find out what great opportunities there are for children at Bethlehem!
Sunday School
Bethlehem offers Sunday School at 9:30am each Sunday morning, with classes for children 2 years old through 5th Grade. Quality background-checked teachers and small classes make this an excellent environment for growing in God’s love.
Bethlehem is ready for another exciting year! K-5th Grade will meet in Education Hall for Opening Music and Message, and then be dismissed to classrooms within Education Hall. (Preschool classes will be held on the 200 level of our building).
