Train Up A Child In the Way They Should Go
about
Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Our Children’s Ministry has something for all ages – Nursery 0-2, 3-kindergarten, and 1st-5th grade.
We teach the Word of God in a fun, interacting way that captivates them with the love of God.
Children are like sponges, and we are purposeful during these impressionable years to lead them to Jesus and God’s Word.
New and exciting things are happening in our Children’s Ministries, and we would love for your kids to be a part!
In the nursery, they play, have snacks, and we give feedings (provided by the parent/guardian). Volunteers sing children’s songs, hold the babies, rock them, etc.
Ages 3-Kindergarten sing children’s songs and have a Bible lesson. They also color and do other activities.
During Sunday School, the 1st-5th graders have Scripture memorization with prizes and a Bible lesson. On Wednesday nights they have a bible lesson, activities, and usually pizza!
All the classes are given snacks. If your child is age 3-kindergarten we have an allergy and info page that we’ll ask you to fill out. We also ask the parents of nursery-age kids about their snacks.
We ask for the cell number of parents of children in the nursery. If the parent is needed we’ll send them a text.

erica castillo
Mrs. Castillo gave her heart and life to the Lord when she was 27 years old. It was at that time she and her husband knew they were going to serve the Lord. They came to The Word Fellowship Church in 2012. Not long after that, she was helping with the children’s ministry. It is her desire to teach children the Word of God, so they can be equipped to use it in their everyday life.
