Adventures in Mission – for Grades 3-6


Each summer, children (3rd-6th Grade) have an opportunity to learn what it is to be in missions by study and by action. In the past, this group has:

  • Collected canned goods for Interfaith Ministries, learning how we can help others who are hungry.
  • Cleaning, sorting, and re-packaging food for the Wichita Falls Area Food Bank.
  • Volunteered at Faith Mission, straightening their Library.
  • Assembled flood buckets and hygiene kits for flood relief.

After working, we usually share in a fun event such as bowling or swimming!

For more information, contact Rev. Lydia Pellikan!


For this children’s activity, you will need to fill out a Medical Release Form.

Kids Helping Kids in Our Community – December 3, 2011

What a great Christmas Gift for our kids and kids in need in our community!

On Saturday, December 3, 2011, nineteen children (grades 1-6), one youth, and nine adults – all representing our church – helped make gifts of “love bags” for young people of the Children’s Home and Teen Shelter to carry their belongings.  They then delivered these gifts, got a tour of the Children’s Home, and sang a couple of Christmas carols for the children there!
