Children’s Ministry

Sunday School

Teachers, parents & students — working together for the glory of God.

Vision Statement

Where We’re Headed

Our vision is to lead our children in becoming youth of strong spiritual character, as they grow, developing a powerful relationship with Jesus Christ for the purpose of connecting with other youth and guiding them to God.

Mission Statement

Why We’re Here

Our mission is to establish and create a safe environment where our youth can learn about authentic praise and worship to the Lord, as they learn about the Holy Spirit and baptism in the name of Jesus Christ.

What We Stand On

Core Values

  • We believe in speaking in tongues as evidence of the Holy Spirit.
  • We believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God and it is our authority for all we do.
  • We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and the model we use to guide our lives.
  • We believe in the power of Prayer, Praise, and Worship and strive to make it a priority in all that we do.
  • We believe that Sunday School is an integral part of the church, which is the body of Christ, and as individual members we must all work together for the glory of God.
A Partnership

Working Together

At Sunday School

Our Teachers

Our teachers work with students and their families to support a spiritual relationship with God. Some of our key connections with families:

  • Communicate regularly with our pastor and coordinator for spiritual guidance and direction from God.
  • Discuss questions or concerns about the requirements of the lessons.
  • Provide information to help parents support the children’s ministry.
  • Use the Word of God as our tool for instruction.
At Home

Our Parents

Parents are an integral part of our children’s ministry. We encourage you to support, inspire, and assist your child to develop a relationship with God by:

  • Discussing and reviewing your child’s lessons, objectives, and activities.
  • Reading the Word of God and reinforcing key scriptures at home.
  • Listening to your child’s concerns, testimonies, and questions.
  • Engaging in prayer, praise, and worship at home.
In the Classroom

Our Students

House of Mercy students understand the importance of being a responsible Christian — coming on time, prepared, and ready to learn. Our students will:

  • Take home, review, and discuss lessons with parents.
  • Ask for help when they have trouble understanding our core values.
  • Participate in classroom discussions and group work.
  • Read and reflect on the Word of God at home.
  • Pray, praise, and worship at home.
