Wednesday Night Program
Wednesdays at 6:30 pm
Join us every Wednesday during the school year for a night of fun as we grow in our faith! From 6:30-7:30 pm the children are invited to participate in a program that is completely different from the Sunday morning program. Children learn Bible stories through activities with their peers and adult leaders from Messiah, engaging with different learning styles through rotational teaching including missions, arts and crafts, science, and storytelling.

Vacation Bible School is a fun and energetic week every summer where children learn about God’s story of redemption. For kids ages 4 through (just finishing) 5th Grade, each exciting day is packed with music, teaching, skits, games, crafts, science, snacks, and more.
