WHO WE ARE & WHAT WE DO
The Children's Discipleship Ministry Team provides activities that help our children grow in the knowledge of God through the love of Jesus Christ. We are also blessed to have many other members of the Fort King congregation support and assist in making sure the children understand the important message that each one of them are so special to God who loves them so much. Our Sunday School for children meets after the Children's Sermon at the Worship time in the Christian Education Building until the end of the service. Children do not have Sunday School the first Sunday of the month as they participate in Communion with their parents. We are so blessed to have excellent teachers who share their knowledge of God with the students. Children's Sunday School is for children from kindergarten to sixth grade. Other responsibilities for this ministry team are:
1. Providing volunteers to help in the nursery with children up to 5 years of age.
2. Provide a Vacation Bible School program along with adults and the youth group.
3. Organize a Rally Day program to kick off the Sunday School Year.
Members of this team are: Kathy Bohner, Becky Wolf, Chris Berryhill, Joanne Ohlman.
