YOUTH PARTICIPATION IN CHURCH

Typically, Sunday School is upstairs at 10:30 a.m., and includes ages preschool and up; however, youth activities are currently on pause due to Covid 19 precautions.

At special services, we have the youth take over Music Director duties, read the Timeless Word and Moment for Mission, and be involved in preparing for the day when God calls them to be leaders of the church and to do His bidding as such.

Our mission is to teach the children that they are precious children of God as is everyone; and as such, show them the joy and peace that God brings to their lives and teach God's instructions of reaching out to others with God's love and being God's hands and heart here on earth and give them a foundation to stand on in a changing troubling world.

"Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." ~ Philippians 2:3-4

"Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

~ Matthew 19:14

NURSERY

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL (VBS)

Vacation Bible School is held every year. We vary the type, times, length, and theme of Vacation Bible School. All children are invited; whether their parents are members of our church or not, whether they attend regularly or not, or whether they belong to any church,

"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." ~ Proverbs 22:6

KAMP KALEO

Kamp Kaleo is a nature-filled oasis of quiet and serenity located in central Nebraska on the southeastern edge of the beautiful Sandhills region. The camp sits right on the banks of the scenic North Loup River, just outside of Burwell, home of Nebraska’s largest rodeo (on Nebraska Highway 11, a designated Scenic Byway).

Kamp Kaleo is the location of summer church camps for the United Church of Christ (Nebraska Conference) and the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Nebraska. For summer church campers, Kamp Kaleo offers great fun, friendship, and fellowship.
