Scripture: "Allow the children to come to me," Jesus said. "Don't forbid them, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to people like these children" - Matthew 19:14
The purpose of the Children’s Ministry is to expose our children to the gospel of Jesus Christ at a level that they can understand and appreciate to ensure a fundamental understanding of salvation. Our ministry is designed to promote understanding and leadership training while also encouraging our children to feel free in their praise, worship, and service for God. Children’s Church worship services are held on 2nd and 3rd Sundays at 9:00 a.m. in the Children’s Sanctuary, 2nd floor. Combined worship service on every 1st Sunday in the main sanctuary.

Nursery
The Franklin Avenue Baptist Church through the Nursery experience, desire to minister to the whole being of each child, their body, mind, and soul. We are designed and equipped to minister to children from ages 1 through 5.
We are prepared and focused on providing a clean and safe environment and establish an atmosphere of love and laughter. We have loving and caring caregivers as well as volunteers who enjoy seeing every child excitement when learning about Jesus.
The Nursery of Franklin Avenue Baptist exists to provide a secure, nurturing environment where biblical truths are taught as a foundation for salvation and Christian living.
Our goals for the growth of infants are based on the fact that they grow just as Jesus grew – mentally (in wisdom), physically (in stature), socially/emotionally (in favor with man), and spiritually (in favor with God).
In preparing them for the next level, we give them the opportunity to worship with the Children (ages 6-12) in Children’s Church every Sunday.
Nursery Hours: 8:30 am - 12:00 am Age Group: 1-5
