Children's Ministry

Building Faith That Lasts a Lifetime

About Our Children's Ministry

At Ascension Baptist Church, we're passionate about helping children (birth-5th grade) discover Jesus in a safe, fun, and engaging environment. Our dedicated team creates age-appropriate experiences where kids can learn biblical truths and build spiritual foundations.

Our ministry is built on three pillars: Safety, Fun, and Discipleship. We partner with parents to raise up the next generation of Christ-followers.
