Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."
Matthew 19:14
At Goodrich, we believe that children are a vital part of the kingdom of God. They are more than our future - they are our present! Because of this, our children attend their own Sunday School and are active participants in our worship service. Not only are we raising the next generation of church leaders and disciples, we are encouraging their current spiritual growth and development as disciples capable of being an important part of our community and church life.
Children's Sunday School
10am Sundays
Our children meet for Sunday School at the same time as the rest of the church body. They are engaged through story telling, crafts, play, and lessons. Our children's minister, Sherry, has years of educational experience and pours all of her training into our kids.

Advent Workshop
Throughout the year we host a variety of special events for our children and families. One of our favorites is the annual Advent Workshop, which kicks off the Advent season. Families are invited to participate together, making crafts and preparing for this holy season. Don't be surprised if Santa also makes a special appearance!
Vacation Bible School
WE LOVE VBS!
At Goodrich, VBS is kinda a big deal. We get waaaaay into it every year - building elaborate sets, transforming the entire church, and turning our adults into full-blown goofballs. We want our kids to be immersed in a world where they can engage with the Gospel in a new and fun way, learning to ask the big questions and how to live the way of Jesus.
VBS includes Bible stories, crafts, games, science lessons, music, and of course snacks! We aim for all the senses to help them connect with the Gospel message.
We would love to have your kids join us this year! Keep an eye out for registrations to begin in early summer.
