 Jericho Junction (1st through 6th grade)
Children's Pastor, Charlotte Reasner and her husband Richard, have been on staff since 1989, establishing Jericho Junction. This ministry is based on Psalm 119:11, Your Word I have hidden in my heart that I might not sin against You. Putting the Word of God into the children through Bible lessons, praise and worship, prayer, puppets and skits is a fun and effective way. Children are so valuable to us and to our dynamic team of teachers. Our vision and goal is to build in them a healthy, spiritual foundation, one that will help them make the right decisions in life and have a rewarding relationship with Jesus Christ.
