Faith-to-go Kits

Summer Faith-To-Go kits will be ready to be picked up Sunday mornings May 16 and 23.

These kits are designed to support your family as you disciple your children during the summer months. We hope it will be a tool for putting God first this summer. Maybe it goes with you on vacation, or maybe it is a little extra something for your family midweek.

Each kit contains five family devotionals/activities that revolve around a toy or object and are designed for the whole family!
