Children are our passion and our reason for ministry. We believe that children can develop great values and character. By working alongside parents we hope to accomplish this through biblical teaching and providing Christ-like models to emulate. We have provided children, ages birth through 5th grade, with the heritage of our ministry for the past 100 plus years, building faith and values that last for eternity. Our model for great relationships is Jesus and His words.
We believe that kids who love Jesus can make a huge difference in their world! All of us involved in The H.E.A.R.T. Company are committed to children and want kids to grasp the truth of God which will give them the foundation to hold fast to Jesus no matter what the future holds.
Our teachers, care givers and staff volunteer their time and talents in serving and loving your children. The staff is carefully supervised by our Children’s Ministries Director and Coordinators.

Child Dedications
|
| We believe that an important day for families is choosing to dedicate themselves to being a family that honors the Lord. A child dedication is a great opportunity to stand before the CABC family and commit yourselves, as parents, to bringing your child up in a way that honors the Lord and gives your child the best home possible.
A week prior to your child's dedication, you will attend a short, mandatory informational meeting. You will learn about the meaning and significance of having a child dedicated. For more information contact contact our Child Dedication Coordinator |

STOP...LOOK...LISTEN... WALK
Wednesday Nights
6:30 - 8:00 pm
Ages: 4 years old - 5th grade
No cost. Just come!
We believe the Bible is God's true and Living Word and that Jesus is the Light of the world. We want to show today's children that God's word is just as true and relevant today as it always has been. Every week will include an age appropriate inductive Bible Study.
We realize that not all children learn in the same way, or enjoy the same type of activities. That is why we will provide different activities throughout the year to help children discover what talents they have, and more importantly how they can use their talent to serve within the church.
Activities may include: drama,cooking,dance,karate,choir,crafts,science...and more! Everyone will also participate in at least one service project each year.
