CHILDREN'S MINISTRY

The Children’s Ministry of First Church guides children through fifth grade to seek and love God and love and serve people. Our Children’s Ministry creates ways for children to know and accept the love of Christ. Can you help out in Children’s Ministry one week a month? We need volunteers to help assist in classrooms. For more information, visit the Children and Youth Ministry Volunteer page or contact Pastor Becky Postlewait, Director of Children's Ministries.

Childcare is available during all morning worship services at the end of the Children’s Ministry Wing hallway on the second floor. Childcare is coordinated by Pastor Becky Postlewait.

Thursday Mornings

10:30 am – Noon: Mommy and Me
Our goal is to encourage interaction and development for little ones 0 to 3 years old (siblings are welcome) while creating space for building friendships with other moms. Moms are welcome to nurse comfortably without judgment. We will support one another on the joys and challenges of motherhood. Visit our page.

Quality investments in young people today build a better world for tomorrow. Time away in an intentional community gives a child space to see their place in the big picture. We are proud to offer programs that grow disciples to transform the world for Jesus Christ. Click here for camps and programs throughout the year.


Our Children's Pastor, Becky Postlewait, will be driving the bus to camp and staying the week with our kids. There are Camp scholarships available, please fill out a trip scholarship form (at the bottom of this page).
