ADVENTURERS
The Adventurer program was created to assist parents in their important responsibilities as a child’s primary teachers and evangelizers. The program aims to strengthen the parent/child relationship and to further the child’s development in spiritual, physical, mental, and social areas. Through the Adventurer Program, the church, home, and school can work together with the parent to develop a mature, happy child. The Adventurer Club was created to give children an opportunity to belong to an organized peer group. To join, children are invited to participate in various activities which will improve their social skills. The Adventurer Club involves children in grades 1-4 and their parents. The programming and planning for Adventurers should be simple and short, but creative. Parental involvement provides opportunities for parents to participate in the learning experience. One of the Adventurer Club objectives is to provide a meaningful and exciting experience as the children look forward with anticipation to some day being Pathfinders. What is the Adventurer curriculum designed to accomplish? Children will, at their own level, commit their hearts and lives to Jesus Christ. Children will gain a positive attitude toward the benefits, joys, and responsibilities of living a Christian life. Children will acquire the habits, skills and knowledge needed to live for Jesus today. Parents and other primary care-givers will become more confident and effective as co-laborers with Christ for their children.

They arise from our innermost needs, grounded in our God-given ability to love and care for others. A growing, healthy church nurtures healthy relationships. The ministry to which a person is called when he or she becomes a member of the hospitality team will include the following duties: Taking care of visitors. Caring for new members.

Prison Ministry
Prisons are often filled to capacity with inmates, but is God’s message of forgiveness and hope also entering these prisons? Our Prison Ministries department strives to meet each inmate where they are and bring them the message of God’s forgiveness, righteousness, and plan for a better life. We also need more volunteers who visit those who are incarcerated as well as those who minister to the families of those who are incarcerated.
