We believe children matter! The mission of our children’s ministry is to introduce Jesus Christ to all children and help them become fully devoted followers of Christ.
Your children’s safety is of utmost importance to us. All teachers and helpers have participated in our Child Awareness Program, have provided references, and have been background checked.
All classes and groups are designed to encourage the spiritual growth of children through songs, skits, puppet shows, and Bible stories and lessons. For more information, email info@erfriends.com or call 740-695-0971.
