Nurturing Faith in the Next Generation
The divine purpose of the children’s ministry at Greater Life is lighting the pathway to Jesus for every child within our sphere of influence. Our desire is that the young people of Greater Life become lifelong disciples of Jesus. The journey towards that goal begins at a very early age. Children must learn right from wrong and that there are truths in this world that are absolute. Children must also learn that there are consequences for the choices they make – both good and bad. They must also be taught the truth about man’s sinful condition and the price that God’s Son, Jesus, paid to redeem a lost and dying world. Children must also learn that they were created by God to worship and serve Him. A life of worship and service to God begins the day that one trusts Jesus Christ to be his Lord and Savior. We believe that a person who comes to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior at an early age will avoid many of the snares and traps that befall today’s unchurched youth. Our carefully selected programs provide children with an exciting and focused Christian environment that will complement the Christian teachings and spiritual growth that you, as parents, promote within your home. Our Children’s Ministry Team consider it a privilege to work with your children.
"Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."
Psalm 127:3

Kristen Cairnes
Children's Administrator
I’ve been married to Brian since 1998 and together we have 4 adult children that are all serving the Lord at GLBC. I was saved at the age of 11 during Vacation Bible School and have served in children’s ministry for over 20 years. I am burdened for children to truly come to know Jesus as their Savior at a young age. Children are seeking love and acceptance and Jesus offers the hope they so desperately need.
Nursery at Greater Life
If you are a visitor, you will be greeted by one of our volunteers that will get your family’s information. You will be issued a name tag that will allow you to pick your child up after the service. For our regular attenders, you may use the Church Center app to check your child in. When you return to pick up your child, simply show your security code on the app.
Who Will Care for My Child?
GLBC has a wonderful team of volunteers that have a passion for children.
What If I Need to Nurse?
There is a private room attached to the Sanctuary for nursing moms.
Do I Have to Use the Nursery?
No. Although we offer children’s programs, your children are always welcome in the worship service with you.
Have Questions?
Children's Church
Worship and grow in Christ, knowing your child is being cared for in a safe and loving environment. Children’s Church meets each Sunday during the 11:00am service. Parents can opt to have their children sit with them in the worship service if they prefer. The first Sunday of every month is our “Family Worship Service” where children 4 and older attend the services with their families.
