Children's Ministry

FAITHFULNESS   |   FRIENDLINESS   |   FEARLESSNESS



Children are a gift from the Lord!  At Friends, we believe it is just as important for our children as it is for our youth and adults to be growing disciples who know, love, follow, and lead others to Jesus.
 
Our vision is to raise up kids “to love and live supernaturally, for the sake of God and the sake of others.”
 
Our children’s programs and activities are designed to partner with parents to provide a safe and fun environment where kids can grow in their knowledge of God’s Word and develop a trusting and vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ.

Sensory Room

We are so excited to offer a Sensory Room at our North Olmsted campus for children who may find our regular children's classes too overwhelming. Available during both 9:30 and 11:00 services, we provide a low-stimulation space, including a Bible lesson taught by volunteers. These volunteers are trained to help support children with special needs. Through this ministry, we seek to live out our Mission Statement of Loving people to life in Jesus Christ, ensuring every child knows they belong.
