Who we are: RLA Children Ministry is a biblical ministry within our church that works together with parents and the church to help build and grow children in their faith and relationship with God. We provide a loving, caring, and fun environment where children can grow in their faith and strengthen their relationship with God. As a team, our volunteers and parents, we provide biblical teachings/ lessons and a time where children can build fellowship with other children in their same faith. We welcome all children and aim to make the environment a welcoming and safe place. We follow our church philosophy, practices, and beliefs. As a ministry we believe children are the most important people that we should build and focus on, as they are the next generation church. 

“Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me.”

-Matthew 18:4-5

What we do: At RLA our mission is to provide a fun and loving environment where children can grow their faith and relationship with God. While at our ministry, children will participate in free play time, worship time, a biblical lesson, and an art and craft time. Our aim and focus is for children to experience God in all areas of their life so we include the fun and the biblical components to our schedules. Children that come through our ministry will have the opportunity to connect with children their age as well as amazing volunteers that are there to support and guide children. 

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.”

-Proverbs 22:6
