Discipleship Practices

Children are God’s gift to us. Our covenant responsibility is to pass God’s story down to our children, telling them over and over about His mighty acts and praiseworthy deeds. We need to be bold in telling our children about the power of God and the wonders He has done, while modeling for them what it means to live a life of grace. The children’s ministry program at First Christian Reformed Church includes many programs that teach the youngest in God’s kingdom and walk them through their spoiritual journey as they discover God’s love.

Building

The church has adequate facilities with a large number of classrooms to be able to serve all the ministries of the church. However, the sanctuary is dated and does not hold enough people for the church to continue to grow.
