GA's is a missions discipleship group for girls in grades 1–6. The GA Motto is “Go Forward!” and Girls in Action do just that—they grow closer to God as they discover their part in His plan and practice what they learn through hands-on missions opportunities. GA leads girls to a lifelong commitment to Christ, His mission, and His church.

One special event for RA boys is Royal Racers.
Each boy designs, builds and paints his own race car from a kit. Competitions are held and the winners in each class get a trophy and a chance to go on to state competition.
During our Sunday morning Worship service the children have their own Sermon Message delivered by one of the children's ministry leaders. These messages are geared to their age level and the children's responses are a delight to the adult congregation. The kids then go to Children's Church.
Children's Church is a time where kids have fun activities, music, sing songs, listen to stories taken from the Bible and learn more about Jesus.
