Elementary

Nurturing Every Child in the Gospel

1st–5th Grades

In keeping with our larger church’s mission, the Children’s Ministry at First Presbyterian Church desires to restore people and rebuild places as we nurture our covenant children, equip our parents, and reach unchurched children and parents with the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Volunteer to serve

Children’s Check-in

If you are going to be visiting with us for the first time, we encourage you to arrive about 10 minutes early to stop by the Children’s Check-in Lobby. A member of our Children’s Ministry Team will be available to assist you in checking in your children so that we can provide the highest level of protection possible for the children placed in our care. Learn more.

After checking in, 1st–5th graders attend worship with their families.

9 a.m.
Children in 1st–4th grades exit worship for Catechism Training. In Catechism Class, children review and recite the Westminster Shorter Catechism with the goal of memorizing a set of the questions each year. The doctrines of the reformed faith are beautifully scattered throughout the entirety of the Bible. The Westminster Shorter Catechism accurately summarizes those doctrines so that our children can know how to express what they believe.
