Jesus said, “Let the little children come unto me and do not hinder them, because the kingdom of God belongs to them.” These words are a reminder Jesus valued children and saw them as a special part of the Kingdom of God. Following Jesus’ example, we value children here at First United Methodist Church and believe they are an important part of the church. Their faith adds to the faith of the congregation. Because of their value, we offer a variety of programs for the children of our church. Take a few minutes to check out what’s happening in our Children’s ministry.
Journey Kids Sunday School
Join us on Sunday mornings at 10am for Sunday School!
We open this time with worship, celebrating birthdays, and we have an opening prayer.
Preschool (ages 3-4), Kindergarten, First, and Second Grade meet upstairs in room 205.
These classes have a rotational curriculum. We focus on the same Bible story for one month and each Sunday the classes participate in either Story time, Art, Spiritual Practices or Cooking.
Third, Fourth, and Fifth Grade meet upstairs in room 201.
This class will learn all about the Bible. We learn how to journal using the Bible, why the Bible is divided into two Testaments, why the Bible is not in chronological order, and more.

JAM is a choir composed of Children and Youth.

JAM provides children and youth a music education through regular study and performance. The choir experiences unison and multi-part singing, a cappella and accompanied music, play instruments, perform choreography, and learn to read musical notation.
Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful song. Psalm 100:1-2
