Kids

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me..."

Matthew 19:14

At First MC, we believe there is no junior Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit can always move in mighty ways - especially through our children. Our hope is that kids not only learn about the gospel but also experience God’s love, desire him, and grow in their relationship with Him as a result of their time spent in FirstMC Kids.

Aubree Nelson

Children's Ministry Director

Aubree is a recent graduate from Taylor University and recently joined the Family Life team here at FirstMC. She oversees children from newborn - 5th grade. Her heart is to continue to develop an inclusive children’s ministry, and to pour into FirstMC families and volunteers. Her desire is for all to love Jesus, to know His love for themselves, and to love others.

Note from Aubree: "We are in a spiritual battle for our children. The devil doesn’t start planting lies when we are older but starts when we are kids. I’d love to help you all (especially the parents) to help discover the truths of His unending love for yourselves and plant so many seeds in your children that they are overflowing with God’s love!! We want to be disciples who love Jesus and know His love for us is even greater." 

If serving the children in our church is something you’re sensing God may be calling you to, or if you just want to ask questions about what it looks like to serve in children’s ministry, please contact our Children's Ministry Director, Aubree, at aubree.nelson@firstmc.org
