Children's Ministries
Developing children to be life-long disciples who know, love, follow and serve Jesus.
Children's Ministries
The faith of a child who is raised in a Christian home and a church family, develops over time and parallels the individual development of the child. A child’s faith is influenced by people, places and a variety of experiences. Most often the greatest influence of a child’s faith is their family. However, the church as an individual’s faith family, is also a very important influence.
We recognize that raising children is a challenge in and of itself and raising a child of faith is an even greater challenge. We also recognize that most parents do not feel qualified or equipped to disciple their own children to be followers of Jesus. For this reason, WCPC desires to come alongside parents as a faith family, partnering with parents in the faith formation and discipleship of their children.
What to Expect
Each week, children are welcomed into a safe, nurturing, fun and engaging environment by a team of trained caregivers and volunteers. Upon arrival, you’ll be warmly greeted and receive instruction on checking your child into our age-specific programs.
