MISSION

Children's Ministry includes children ages newborn through Grade 6. The purpose of Children's Ministry is to reach out to children and to teach them to know, to love, and to serve Jesus Christ all the days of their lives. Our hope is that children and their parents will find a place to belong here in our church community. Parenting can be really tough, and it’s not something to undertake alone. In addition to ministering to the needs of the children here at Knollwood, the Children’s Ministry also strives to connect parents and help them form meaningful relationships with each other through Bible Studies and Community Groups.
