Every Child Matters
At Clarkston United Methodist Church, we believe that every child is a precious gift from God. Our children's ministry provides a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can explore their faith, build lasting friendships, and discover God's amazing love for them.
Through age-appropriate activities, engaging Bible stories, and creative worship, we help children develop a strong foundation in their faith journey while having fun and building community.
Love
We create an environment where children feel God's love and learn to share that love with others.
Learn
We engage children in age-appropriate Bible learning that helps them understand God's story.
Grow
We nurture children's spiritual growth so they develop a lifelong relationship with Christ.
Our Programs
We offer a variety of programs designed to meet the needs of children at different stages of development and spiritual growth.
Loving care for infants and toddlers up to age 3 during worship services, where our dedicated staff and volunteers provide a safe, nurturing environment.
Age-appropriate Bible lessons, crafts, games, and activities that help children learn about God's love in an engaging way.
A weekly service opportunity where elementary-age children learn to serve others through hands-on projects that make a difference in our community.
A week-long summer adventure filled with Bible stories, music, crafts, games, and fun that children look forward to all year long.
