Nursery
Infant – 2 years old

Welcome to EFVM Nursery, a place for little ones to experience the love of Christ. We consider it an honor to be entrusted with your precious God given treasures! It is our pleasure to engage each child in a solid time of worship through interaction and play. We show them the love of Christ through our actions and teach them to worship God through their actions. During our services, you can expect your children to be a part of worship, bible lessons, puppet shows, crafts, interactive play, snack time, and much more.

Lil ' Sparks vision:
To equip each child for the great adventure in Christ by helping them build a solid foundation based on biblical truths in a relevant way.

Lil ' Sparks mission:
To meet the emotional, physical, social, and spiritual needs of each child. 

Ages: 3 years to 8 years old

Early Childhood is the best time to introduce a God-centered worldview for our preschoolers. We focus on building the foundation of who Jesus is, and learn why “God is love." This age group loves to interact, and children are encouraged to ask questions and tell stories that relate to our lessons. Each Sunday you can find us allowing children social time and playtime. We engage in a large group lesson, worship time complete with singing and dancing, puppet shows, crafts, and a snack. We end our day with interactive games.

Ages: 9 years to 12 years old

Kids will be “lit up” to use their God given gifts and talents, “Lit” to worship, and “Lit” to enhance their understanding of their relationship with Jesus Christ. They will begin to understand their God given purpose. We show God’s love through Youth Congress, Youth Trips, Culinary Arts, Youth Outings and much more!!

TEENS
Ages: 13 years – 17 years old

Explosion: a sudden, burning outburst that causes rapid increase that is sure to expand to all objects around it, not leaving its surroundings the same that they were found

The purpose for Xplosion is to instill morals, values, and biblical principles in a protected setting. The vision for “Xplosion” stems from our themed scripture (Romans 12:11-13) teaching our youth to keep the FIRE of God exploding in their lives through the good and tough times. In order to fulfill the God given purpose for their lives and be a burning outburst to those around them, they must “Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ Jesus forgave”. Topics are designed to nurture and promote their spiritual growth while dealing with challenges encountered in Middle & High School.

We believe that there is no age limit to God. We teach the Word in its fullness, while teaching our youth how to practically apply it to their lives. We teach our youth the importance of being hungry for the Word. The Word is relevant for all generations! It just takes one spark to catch an entire forest on fire.
