Reaching The People
Though people adopt many things seeking fulfillment in life, it’s only when we embrace a vibrant, growing faith in Jesus Christ that we understand life and fully live. Faith in Christ shapes our values,
fuels our worship and promotes our message. Faith in Jesus Christ is at the core of our way of life at Screven.
Teaching the People
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.
Keeping the People
Jesus put energy into connecting people and pulling individuals together for the common good. He did so persistently, intently, and sometimes effortlessly even when he was in the presence of those he didn’t know very well or who didn’t like him very much. Jesus organized people so simply and succinctly around five basic practices to deepen commitment.
Children's Ministry
Matthew 19:14
"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
Our children's & family ministry exists to see families in our church become followers of Jesus Christ with a strong HEART for God. We will accomplish our vision by partnering with our children's parents to guide kids toward a HEART for God, through:
- Heartfelt Relationships
- Engaging Teaching
- Authentic Worship
- Real Service
- Telling the Good News
What is our goal? The goal we should have in any ministry, no matter what age, is to make disciples. Disciples that are on a journey of lifelong faith as followers of Jesus. We can teach children a lot of important things, but it is essential - in fact, above all else, that we teach them about Jesus and what He did on the cross for them.
Please consider joining us on Sunday mornings:
Sunday School 9:15
Children's Church 10:30
Depending on the age of your children will determine what class they attend. We also have a nursery for babies until the age of 2 and then they move up to big kid classes, respectively.
Please bring your children into our sanctuary and someone will introduce themselves to you, to your children and we will bring them to their classroom for loving, kind, hands on learning.
About Us
Our passion to serve means that we are here to serve one another, both in the church, in the community and in the world. We seek to provide specific opportunities for everyone to have a place of service.
We are a passionate people.
Our vision statement is "A Passion for God, A Passion for People, A Passion to Serve."
These are the foundations for our living a life for Jesus Christ.
Our passion for God is exemplified largely in our passionate worship experiences. Since worship service is usually the first experience one has with the church, it's important to us to seek to create an environment in worship that provides for an encounter with the living God.
Our passion for people is played out through everyone's involvement in a Home Group. Many people are initially intimidated by coming to church. But the church becomes small through Life Groups. They are the place where we not only learn about our faith but also where we take care of one another. Our passion for people is also exemplified through our desire for everyone to feel welcome, regardless of background, life stage, ethnicity, or any other characteristic that may describe you.
Our passion to serve means that we are here to serve one another, both in the church, in the community and in the world. We seek to provide specific opportunities for eveyone to have a place of service.
