Encountering Christ in Every Season of Life
The Sacraments are sacred moments where we encounter Christ in visible and tangible ways. Through these sacred rites, God pours out His grace, calling us into His family, healing our hearts, and sending us forth in service to others.

The safety of every child is our utmost concern. To ensure this, parents or guardians must personally "check in" each child and receive a security tag that corresponds to the child's profile. During pickup, children will only be released to adults who can present the matching security tag.
