Central Kids

Explore the ministry opportunities for your children at Central.

Welcome to Central Kids

Central Kids Jr. (birth-5 yr. old) and Central Kids (Kindergarten-5th Grade) exists to partner with parents to lead the next generation to know that God loves them, He has a plan for them and to lead them into a relationship with Jesus Christ. We do that through safe, age appropriate environments where kids will experience worship, learning and play.

We would love to see you and your family visit Central Kids. Please follow the link below to register your kids so that we will be ready for your visit.

Wednesday Nights



What is Awana?

Awana is a ministry used to reach kids, equip leaders, and change the world. Central Kids provides Awana Wednesday nights in the school year. Awana is a great next step for kids to come and dig deeper into God's Word, memorize scripture and learn how to apply it to their life. Each month kids will learn about missionaries and how they can be a missionary in their community.


  • Important Awana Dates:
  • March 22 - AWANA does not meet
  • April 26 - Last Night of AWANA
  • May 3 - AWANA Award Show


  • Wednesdays, 6:15-8:00pm
  • Ages 2 (by September 1st) up to 5th Grade


Awana Clubs

Puggles® recognizes the learning ability of 2- and 3-year olds by introducing biblical truth at church and equipping parents to teach them at home.

Cubbies® celebrates the spiritual potential of preschoolers (3- to 5-year olds) by helping them develop respect for God, His Son and His Word.

Sparks® (K-2nd grade) ignites the curiosity of early elementary-age kids to learn about the people and events of the Bible, building a foundation of wisdom for knowing Christ.
