Children’s Ministries

Jesus said it best, "Let the little children come to me!" So together with children of all ages, we play, pray, sing, serve, worship, laugh, create, and most important of all, grow together in our understanding of what it means for all of us to be children of God. We seek to help children learn of God’s love for them through worship, Sunday School, and other experiences of faith such as Vacation Bible School. And we love when volunteers join us in this enriching journey. Whether you consider yourself "too young," "too old," or "too busy," we need you!

For more information on our children's ministries, view and/or subscribe to our weekly “Kids @ Glenn” newsletter with a devotion & LOTS of announcements and/or subscribe to short Remind text messages.

Child/Youth Protection: Safe Sanctuaries

A church is a sanctuary in several respects. It is sometimes a place of refuge from the turmoil of the secular world; it is a nurturing community of faith; and it is a source of empowerment for leading lives of faith and witness. Even so, the church is never fully removed from contemporary society, and the church is required to be mindful of the reality of evil in the world.

Glenn strictly adheres to its Child and Youth Protection Policies to ensure the safety and support of all its children and youth. This includes training and regularly updated background checks for all staff and volunteers.
