Children's Ministry
Our goal for Children’s Ministry is to teach children in 5th grade and younger about God and the love of Jesus Christ, cultivate environments where kids can make long lasting friendships, and create opportunities for children to serve and lead.
During the 10:30 a.m. service, children are invited up to the front of the sanctuary for a short children’s message and then dismissed to Sunday School by age group. Children return to the sanctuary to take communion with their grown-ups.

Youth Ministry
Our goal for Youth Ministry is to teach youth in grades 6–12 about the complexities of Christianity, guide them in a personal relationship with God, and provide them with the love and support they need in their teenage years and beyond.
We have a youth event every last Sunday of the month, which you can find on the calendar below.

Social Justice Groups
In the summer of 2020, in the wake of protests for racial justice responding to the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis and violence against other people of color, Faith Church began several learning groups to study issues of race and systemic injustice. These groups have read books, listened to podcasts, and watched movies to expand their perspectives.
Now, these social justice learning groups want to provide resources to help anyone else get started on their own learning journey about racial injustice.
Mondays at 10:00 am (weekly), led by Heather Raschko
Tuesdays at 2:00 pm (every 2 weeks), led by Marcia Rivers Smith
Thursdays at 7:00 pm (monthly), led by Fiona Gunn
Thursdays at 7:00 pm (every 2 weeks), led by Dan McLachlan
Contact the church office if you would like to get connected with one of these groups.
