In the Bible there is a story that illustrates
how we feel about children at First Assembly of God. "People were also bringing
babies to Jesus to have Him touch them. When the disciples saw
this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to Him
and said, 'Let the little children come to me and do not hinder
them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell
you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God
like a little child will never enter it.'" Luke 18:15-17
Children birth through 2 years old can enjoy
a variety of activities & entertainment
while their parents participate in Sunday morning or Wednesday
evening activities at the church.
Jesus loves babies and so do we! At First Assembly of God we
take children and ministering to them very seriously. Your
child's introduction to Jesus begins in the Nursery.
We believe it is never too soon to begin to introduce a child
to the love of God. Our Nursery is staffed by trained volunteers
and loving parents (who serve one Sunday/month in the Nursery).
They provide much more than babysitting. Your child is surrounded
by an attitude of love, praise and teaching.
The Infant nursery, surrounded by wall murals depicting a sheep
pasture, provides cribs & rocking chairs for the comfort
of your child as they are loved & nurtured by other parent
volunteers.
For one and two year olds we spend time playing or reading
stories as well as using Radiant Life curriculum designed for
the two year olds.
Look for signs in your neighborhood welcoming each new addition
to the First Assembly of God Nursery.
