Children's Ministry
"Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity." 1Timothy 4:12 NLT
The purpose of the Children's ministry at Greeley First Church is to strive to fill the children’s hearts and minds with the word of God so they can live a Godly lifestyle. This department seeks to create a Christian community that is welcoming to all children and their families and aim to build proper relationships with each other, the church family and the church staff. The department seeks to show children that God loves them and teach the path of redemption and salvation in hopes of accepting Christ as their Lord and Savior while also understanding the gospel and being able to share it with others.
We do this through the mission of “Lights, Camera, Action." Jesus is the LIGHT, Jesus WATCHES us through our ACTIONS.
