All of our ministry programs are designed to be biblically-based, Christ-centered and applicable to today's often complex world. "Meeting the needs" of the members of our church family, however, does not mean compromise or complacency. Rather, we look at ministry in light of God's word and its application in the world in which we live. Thus our church motto, "Living faith for the real world."


MUSIC:

The purpose of Christian music (in particular Christian worship) is to glorify the Father, because of (and including) the Son, through the Holy Spirit. If done in accordance with biblical principle, it helps the hearer focus their heart and mind upon the Lord Jesus Christ and the work He is doing - both in the world and in our midst. Throughout history, the Holy Spirit has inspired the church with great and glorious music. And, we rejoice in this gift and the talented Christian musicians who help bring it to life. Therefore, our music ministry celebrates all the best of Christian worship, from the most classic of traditional hymns to the most contemporary of modern worship.

CHILDREN'S MINISTRIES: (4 months thru 12 years/6th Grade)

Our children are precious to us. The Bible tells us, they are a gift from the Lord, and our heritage. Therefore, we consider our ministry to the children (from the youngest to the oldest) to be of the utmost importance. Therefore, all of our children's classes (for all ages), are Biblically-based, Christ-centered, safe and enjoyable for leaning and growing in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.

(For safety purposes, all of our children's and youth ministries workers and helpers are pre-screened, given ongoing instruction, and given a complete background check to help insure the safest possible ministry environment for our children and youth. Their comfort and safety is important to us!)


* NURSERY --

From the beginning of pre-service prayer (about 10:00am), our nursery area is unattended, but available for individual use.  A nursery attendant is available for ministry to our youngest saints (ages 4 months through 2 years) immediately following song service.


* CHILDREN'S CHURCH --

Following song service, the children (ages 2 years through 6th grade), are dismissed to Children's Church.  Our Youth Ministries programs are designed to provide enjoyable, Christ-centered, biblically based  instruction for our younger saints.  This takes place during the time of the ministry of the word in the main congregational area.


YOUTH GROUP: (13 years/7th grade thru 18 years/12th Grade):

2nd and 4th Sunday Mornings:  Youth Group is held on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month during the sharing of the morning message.  All youth ages 13 through 18 years (7th thru 12th grades), are welcome, and invited to attend. (Year round)

GUESTS AND VISITORS - Home fellowships offer an excellent opportunity to get to know the SCC church family members that live in your area. Contact the church office for further information, including dates and locations.
