SPARK

Grades 4-5
Sundays, 10:10 – 11:10am
Starting September 13, 2026

We have created a youth group experience for your older elementary age kids. We’re excited to engage them in a more age-appropriate level of learning, while building community and excitement for the confirmation program, which will begin in grade 6.

Faith Markers

Age 3 – Grade 5

Milestones in a child’s faith life. Faith Markers help connect families to each other and to the congregation. As a beautiful coincidence, these opportunities also strengthen your family’s relationship with God.
