Next Generation
We help our next generation become true disciples of Jesus Christ by building relationships with them, being examples for them, and teaching them God’s Word. We believe there is no such thing as a mini-Holy Spirit so we refuse to limit His work in the next generation. We encourage them to grow into the fullness of what God has for them individually and also as a group.
Kids (0-12)
We love sharing the Word of God with children. Most of our Sunday mornings are spent learning about various aspects of God's Word and His love for us. You won't find flashy lights, loud music or fluff at Living Hope... but you will find we have lots of fun, emphasize scripture reading, and seek God first and foremost. Your kids will learn the books of the bible, how to apply God's Word to their lives, and how to hear from God themselves.
Safety
All teachers are required to submit to a thorough background check. In addition, all teacher helpers must attend training. We desire for our ministry to reach out to kids of all ages and abilities. We conduct training on sensory needs, work with children on the autism spectrum, and so much more. If you have questions or concerns we encourage you to reach out to us so we can discuss how to make sure your family feels welcome and safe.
Youth (12-18)
We know that teens are inundated with many different priorities today — from social media, sports, and other activities. Our hope for our youth is that they will learn to prioritize their relationship with God above all else. Our youth group meets every Saturday night from 7:00-9:00pm at the church. During their time together they are surrounded by loving mentors who help guide small group discussions around the Word of God. Come join us for some awesome hangout and fellowship time! Youth starts with games and hangout time, goes into worship, and then discussion.
Special Needs
The Living Hope Children and Youth Ministry is dedicated to providing an inclusive environment where every child, including those with special needs and from foster care, can experience the love of Jesus. Our teachers create a safe, supportive space with sensory-friendly activities and individualized attention to ensure all children can engage with the message of Christ. Sunday mornings are designed to be welcoming and accessible, offering every child the opportunity to grow in faith, build friendships, and feel valued. During combined worship time we provide headphones to help with any child struggling with sensory issues. We are here to support your family, sharing God’s love with every child, no matter their journey.
