Children’s Ministry

Welcome to our children’s ministry at New Life Baptist Church!

Nursery

We have a separate nursery for the little ones.

Children’s Sunday School

Our Children’s Sunday School class is for 1st through 8th grade, all together in one school-room-style class. We are currently learning about Creation, from the Answers in Genesis curriculum — a 12-week course in the book of Genesis.

The Seven C’s in God’s Eternal Plan

Our class is learning the Seven C’s — seven big events from the very beginning to the end of time. Right now we are focusing on the first one: Creation.
