Children
We know that children, as well as adults, have many choices throughout their lives. VHMC Children’s Ministry wants to partner with parents to help build a foundation that creates a habit for children to go to God for guidance as they make decisions in life.
Beginning in the cradle, our children experience the security and unconditional love of Jesus at this church. We want children to know that God loves them, is always with them, and never changes. We teach this early in children’s lives by teaching them the stories of Jesus. During the elementary years we teach children to apply these stories to their own lives. We want children to learn to live their lives the way Jesus lived His life, so that others will be able to see Him through them.
We also want children to be in the habit of going to God when things are good or bad in their lives. We teach this through modeling prayer, praying together, and letting the children lead in prayer.
We want the children to know that they can serve God and His people no matter how old they are. We give children opportunities to be involved in mission projects and other activities that the entire church is a part of, so that they will know they are a part of the body of Christ.
SUNDAY FOR CHILDREN
VHMC recognizes the need for all children to grow in their knowledge of God’s Word. Each week our well trained Sunday School teachers love to share the scripture with the children through relevant teaching focusing on the love and grace of Jesus Christ.
MIDWEEK PROGRAMS
Wednesday nights are a great time for our children to dig deeper into their faith with specifically designed classes that include Bible study, activities, music, skits, mission work and more.
