ignite (children's ministry)
Isaiah 60:22 - "And a little one shall become a thousand and a small one a strong nation, I the LORD will hasten it in its time."
We believe our kids need to know God and His power right away in their young lives. They experience the same Holy Spirit as we do; there's no such thing as a ‘kid size Holy Spirit'.
We believe we must impart what we believe to the next generation, otherwise it will not continue. The most powerful children come from the families that engage their whole family going after God, but we also know that those that do not encounter God at an earlier age have a much harder time believing later in life.
It is important that the kids experience God each week. Whether by His Word, or His power; we purposely make a place where they have an opportunity to know God intimately. Kids are a priority in our church family, and we believe it's a privilege to be and serve with them each week.
What can you expect each Sunday?
Each Sunday ages 7 & up attend worship with the parents. After worship we pray for the kids and dismiss them with their teachers.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

CHILDREN'S TESTIMONIES
We've had lots of testimonies with our kids! From healings to those kids accepting Christ. Just last week the kids prayed for a young boy who continues to get sick and this was the first week in a few months where he had no problems!
- We also try and take time with the kids to allow them to soak in God's presence. Its amazing they go from running around to resting with Jesus. The testimonies ofwhat the kids experience during these times are wonderful.
- One of the mothers in our church wrote us to give us testimony about her children and how they have been getting to know Jesus more and more.
"We were at a fountain at the mall, and my little boy threw his money in the fountain and prayed that Jesus would give him more power and blessings. We also were on our way up to the mountains, and the kids prayed asking Jesus to help them not be scared while going up the mountain, and neither of them were scared after praying! Both times the kids did this, there were several people around them, and it didn't matter, it was as normal as day for them to do. Also, my little girl had a scratch last night, and the pain went away right away, and she told me that Jesus was taking care of her ouchie!"
