It's marathon, raising kids. Full of joys, challenges, growth and so much more! At First Lutheran, we're all about your child's future. We want him/her to know Jesus, not just know about Him. That's where "Seeds for Growth" comes in. Every child is part of the growth process and we feel privileged to be here, to help nurture and grow your child along with you as parents.

Our "Seeds for Growth" Children's Ministries has a variety of opportunities for children to participate in age-appropriate activities and learning throughout the week.

On Sunday morning and during the week you'll find for your child:

• a place to DISCOVER who God is!
• a place to DISCOVER what God has done for them!
• a place to DISCOVER relationship building with God and others, and that we can share with others about our God and Savior Jesus!
• a place to DISCOVER new things, friends, praise, pray, and learn.  

Our Children's Ministry Values

Our Sunday morning and Wednesday night activities are:

• Prayer and Worship focused
• Relationship building with God and others
• Teaching and learning from God's Word
• A fun and safe place for kids and their friends

For safety purposes, all children in our nurseries must be signed in & later picked up by a parent or guardian with appropriate checkout tag. Drop off for children in the nurseries begins 15 minutes before each worship service.
