Minister Theresa L. Holbrook
Children's Ministry
Theresa leads our Children’s Ministry, which focuses on the spiritual needs of children from Pre-K (4 years old) to 6th grade. We provide a safe and loving environment for your children to be nurtured and taught creative, Holy Spirit-inspired, age appropriate lessons.
We will teach your children that God uniquely made them, unconditionally loves them, and wants to have a relationship with them forever. We desire to see your children grow up making wise choices, building strong relationships, and developing their faith.
Our team of committed volunteers eagerly await the opportunity to partner with you on your child’s spiritual journey.
