What is Children’s ministry about?
We believe that when kids truly experience the gospel, their hearts are transformed. We emphasize safety, gospel-centered teaching, and lots of fun to ensure that your child’s time in Kingdom Kidz is enjoyable and meaningful.
Church is committed to coming alongside families in a way that helps strengthen and grow them. We look forward to connecting with you and your children.
The Early Childhood ministry provides care for ages 3 and under during each service on Sunday morning. In order to provide an age-appropriate environment, we have three Early Childhood rooms. The “1s” room is for infant to 18 months, the “2s” room is 18 months to 2.5 years, and the “3s” room is for age 2.5 through age 3. Both the 2s and 3s room will include a simple Bible lesson from the Gospel Project curriculum as well as music, crafts, and games. In order to provide a safe and fun environment for your children, we have staffed our Early Childhood rooms with loving and caring individuals who have gone through a detailed screening process. In Early Childhood, we hope to plant the seeds of understanding the gospel and the love Jesus has for people, no matter how small!
For children ages 4 years through fifth grade, we offer age-appropriate, Christ-centered lessons, using the Gospel Project curriculum. Through active worship, small group time, and fun activities each week, we teach kids to see the Bible as God’s unified story of redemption, helping them to learn how to live Christ-centered lives.
During the school year, kids ages 2 years through 5th grade are invited to join us for Awana on Wednesdays from 6:15 – 8 PM. Through game time, large group teaching, and small group activities, kids learn about God, memorize Scripture, and learn how to apply it to their lives on a daily basis.
When school ends, the fun begins! Kids ages 4 years – 8th grade can explore and develop their God-given gifts and talents at one, or more, of our many camps. From horseback riding to sewing to music and drama, and many more, there is sure to be a camp for your child!
Membership is a spiritual, public commitment to worship, grow and serve at our particular Church. We hope that you will get acquainted with our church and, most importantly, Jesus Christ.
Although you are welcome to attend without obligation, we encourage you to learn about us and the Christian & Missionary Alliance (C&MA). At Alliance Bible Church, we encourage a firm commitment to the local church. Christ was so committed to the church that He gave His life for it, and then directed His apostles to establish local assemblies of believers everywhere.
The first step in becoming a member is attendance at our Membership Matters Class. This is held several times per year, and is an overview of the basic truths of Christianity and the unique ministries of our church.
The second step is to indicate your desire for membership by filling out and submitting an application form for prospective membership.
The third step is to meet with our leadership (Elders) privately to give a personal testimony of faith in Jesus Christ as personal Savior.
The fourth step in becoming a member occurs at a worship service when we publicly extend the right hand of fellowship to those who have met the preceding requirements.
Membership is viewed as a covenant of commitment to God and His people in this local body of believers.
We would be happy to further explain the organization of Alliance Bible Church and expectations for membership. For more information, please see a Pastor or an Elder.
Water baptism is as an outward expression of inward faith. Water baptism expresses our identity in Christ. However, like a logo to a ball team, it does not determine that identity.
We schedule water baptisms a few times a year. Spiritual and practical preparation is available through the Baptism Orientation Class which is conducted a week or two prior to the baptismal service. The class is for those desiring to know more about the Scripture’s teaching on baptism and/or for those desiring to be baptized. Once a baptism is scheduled, the congregation is notified via the ABC eNews (a church wide email), and the church bulletin.
For more information on water baptism, see the Christian and Missionary Alliance information link.
Alliance Bible Church is a gospel-centered, biblically-grounded church whose core mission is to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ locally and globally. It is our desire to see people respond in repentance and faith and to see believers grow in their love for, and obedience to, Jesus Christ.
