We offer to stand beside you and help you reaffirm what your children are already learning through our Sunday School classes and Vacation Bible School (in the summer), and confirmation materials. Any of the Sunday School Leaders will be able to answer questions you may have. Chairperson: Georgia Zarbo; Vice Chairperson: Jaime Kositzke; Superintendent: AVAILABLE

Sunday School classes meet every week during the school year and start at 10:30 AM. They are divided into groups from Pre-School - 6th grade.  

After 6th grade, tweens and teens may join our Youth Group. Youth Group meets on Monday evenings from 6-7:30pm. Youth Leaders: Ron & Kathy Gensler

 

Stewardship

The LCMS defines Christian Stewardship as the free and joyous activity of  God's family-the church-in managing life's resources for God's purposes. You are a child of God and member of God’s family! We want to help you live lives dedicated to using the gifts God has given you for His purposes and to His glory. Chairperson: Leann King;  Vice Chairperson: Cheri Perry

 

Worship

All of the members in the Ministry of Worship contribute to our church services. Many you will notice, but some of them do much behind the scenes that you never see. These areas of service include: The Worship Team, Acolytes, Lay Readers, Sound Board, Ushers, Altar Guild, Eucharist Bread and Banner makers, and Nursery.  If interested in serving in these areas please contact our Pastor, or an Elder. 

 

Social Ministry

Christ's love and the Gospel is meant for everyone. This is how we share that love with our church family and surrounding community. This includes our: Dollar Help, Compassion, Heaven's Supply Pantry, Family Life, Financial counseling, and Transportation ministries.  Chairperson: Adam Boswell; Vice Chairperson: Marilyn McCanless.

 Grace Day 2020: Over 50 volunteers from 6 Jefferson County, Missouri churches came together to help families with everything they need to begin school!  We served over 530 children that day by distributing backpacks, school supplies, shoes, socks, underwear, household items and hygiene items.
