We believe it is best for
our families to worship together. Of course, our children will not be able to
understand or fully participate in all that takes place, but they see adults being
participants, not merely spectators in the worship service.
We also place a special
emphasis on training our young people in an atmosphere where the prayer, worship, and
teaching is such that they can fully participate and minister one to another.
We involve all the youth
in our family cell activities and have special material for young children. Our
Wednesday evening service is a "Night of Equipping" for both adults and youth of
all ages. After praise and worship the various classes are dismissed to their unique
areas and programs. Our vision is to build strong relationships with the Lord and
each other as well as strengthening character. We want to be people-oriented, not
program-oriented.
WELL OF LIFE YOUTH
Ages 12-High School Graduation
Jeromy & Perri Leavelle, Coordinators
We are really excited about what God is doing and what God is going to do in the lives of our youth.
BUCKET BRIGADE
Elementary Youth ages 5-11 yrs
Kelly Murman, Coordinator
Well of Life Church believes children are a gift of God. We desire to be good stewards of those He has blessed us with. Bucket Brigade is our ministry for children ages four years through eleven years.
The name "Bucket Brigade" is taken from the old time concept of passing water from person to person, down the line. It is important that our children be equipped to pass on to others the life God has placed within them.
We would love to have you join us in the future and participate in the wonderful things God is doing in the lives of our children.
NURSERY
Ages 4 and under
Shelia Fleenor, Coordinator
"So what do the kids do in the Well of Life church nursery?"
When parents bring their children to the nursery, they first sign in their child at the table near the door. Our nursery worker pins a name tag on the child's shirt and gives a matching one to the parent. We insist on getting the tag back when the parents pick-up their child. We do this to help us remember which little one goes to which parents. We usually have a baby gate on the door to keep our little Houdini's in the nursery, so parents may drop off their little ones at the door.
We have volunteers form our congregation help us with our Sunday mornings. Our Nursery Coordinator helps in the nursery on Wednesdays... she considers it her little "Cell group".
The time in the nursery is divided into 15 to 20 minute intervals. The children enjoy a variety of activities. They have a snack time followed by music time. We have provided little instruments for them to experiment on. Tunnel time is by far the favorite. The little room next to the nursery is our tunnel room with foldable tunnels, a slide, bubbles and many other action toys. The smaller toddlers and bigger toddlers are separated during tunnel time. The little ones color or work puzzles while th bigger ones play in the next room. Then they switch...the bigger ones play with the play dough while the little ones enjoy tunnel time. We have a story time read form a toddler bible with a theme related coloring page and a craft activity. During the last 30 minutes, the kids watch a children's Christian video or have free time until their parents pick them up.
We have a great time in the nursery. If you interested in volunteering or you have any questions, contact Shelia Fleenor. |
