Children

Our Children's Ministry includes a Sunday Morning program called "Kid's Own Worship" during the 10 am service and a Wednesday night Word of Life Club "Olympians" at 6 pm.  Check the information below.



KOW Ministry Team Leaders:
Week 1 - Claudia Folsom (716-478-9354) and Amanda Fowler
Week 2 - Ed and Mary Bugay (716-930-8878)
Week 3 - Mary Jane Ortman (716-531-2718) and Jamie Pieszala
Week 4 – Bob and Bethany Revell (716-531-5467)
Week 5 – NO KOW children will have the opportunity to worship with the church family
Attention Church Family:    If you are willing to be a helper on one of the ministry teams please contact Mary Bugay 716-930-8878 and let her know you will be available to help.  We would love to talk with you and answer any questions you have.   Please pray for the KOW Ministry Team as we teach your children the Word of God.
During the fall quarter we trust that our children’s heart will be thrilled as they journey back to learn what God would have us know about some of our favorite Bible heroes: King David and his son, Solomon along with the Prophet Elijah.  We pray that the children will understand God’s power in their life.  The Bible tells us in Isaiah 40:31 that people who hope in the Lord will be given strength.  Whatever our needs are, God will give us the strength to make it through when we trust in him.  
Please pray for the KOW ministry team as we encourage your children to weave faith into their life.   We pray that the lessons taught will pass from head knowledge of the Bible right into their heart and transform their life and ultimately your home.
We thank you for the opportunity that you give us to teach your children the Word of God.
