Introduction to HMC Kids
We believe that no one is too young to be influenced by God’s work and the love of Jesus Christ.
From our smallest infants to our growing 5th graders, we seek to lay foundational biblical truth while guiding children in building relationships with each other and with Jesus! HMC Kids partners with parents and invests in children to raise authentic followers of Christ. Through creative environments, Bible lessons, prayer, relationships, and Godly Play we help to connect faith with life right where kids are.
Jesus said, “Let the little children come unto me.” The Children’s Ministry seeks to help children learn, grow, serve, and share Jesus.

HMC Kids News
July 2023
Called by Christ to love, nurture, and empower children to be lifelong followers of Jesus.
Our vision is that every member of Home Moravian Church takes seriously and acts on the promises made in the sacrament of Baptism.
Therefore, The Children’s Ministry at Home Moravian Church engages children and their families in a life-giving ministry of worship, study, service, and fellowship where all children and their families:
- are embraced with love, patience, and respect,
- are connected to the entire church family,
- grow in their knowledge of the Bible, Moravian heritage, and the Christian Church,
- are nurtured in their spiritual formation.
Core Beliefs:
- We embrace all children.
- We believe we reflect the love of God.
- We believe that providing spiritual formation for our children is a vital responsibility of the church.
- We believe it is our responsibility to provide a safe and respectful environment for all children.
- We believe that children must be nurtured spiritually so they may grow in the faith and retain that faith as they grow older.
- We believe children should be given an opportunity to practice and share their faith through acts of service to others.
