CHILDREN & YOUTH

OUR GOAL IS TO INTRODUCE OUR KIDS

TO JESUS AT EACH PHASE OF LIFE

NURSERY

6 MONTHS TO 2 YEARS OLD

We love babies! We seek to give them the best first impression of their heavenly Father while in our care. Parents can be assured that their little ones are receiving personal care in a safe and nurturing environment while they relax and enjoy the Sunday service.

PRE-SCHOOL

3-5 YEARS OLD

Preschoolers love to learn and are motivated by discovery. Colorful and bright lessons are designed to capture the children’s attention while relating the Word of God to their lives. Our teachers allow our young children to play, listen, and freely communicate as we teach the Bible on their level. We believe in creating real-life experiences for these young minds so that we can impart foundational truth.

ELEMENTARY GRADES

1ST THROUGH 6TH GRADE

At this stage, kids are motivated by fun! Because of this, we seek to create an environment that is dynamic and fun, which in turn makes them excited to be in church. Our goal is to engage their interest and promote a personal relationship with God as they grow spiritually and discover who they are in Christ.

JR. AND HIGH SCHOOL

7TH GRADE TO 12TH GRADE

IFWC youth is a fun and safe environment that fosters both spiritual and social growth. At IFWC, we recognize that this is a critical time for our teens to discover who they are and develop a healthy self-image. Along with providing the tools that will assist our teens in maturing into successful young adults, we encourage leadership in their schools, homes, and communities.

SALVATION

The shed blood of Jesus Christ and His resurrection provide

the only ground for justification and salvation for all who

believe, and only such as receive Jesus Christ by faith are

born of the Holy Spirit and thus become children of God.

ATONEMENT

Jesus Christ is true God and true man, having been

conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary.

He is the only man ever to have lived a sinless life. He died

on the cross for mankind, the complete and final sacrifice

for our sins according to the Scriptures. Further, He arose

from the dead and ascended into heaven, where He

stands at the right hand of God the Father.

Man was created in the image of God but fell into sin

and is, therefore, lost. Only through re-generation by the

Holy Spirit can salvation and spiritual life be obtained.

BAPTISM & COMMUNION

Soon after accepting Christ as personal Savior, water

baptism by immersion is a testimony of death to sin and

resurrection to a new life. The Lord’s Supper is a memorial

service setting forth the death of the Lord Jesus Christ in a

sacred and symbolic manner; all true believers share in it.

(Matthew 28:19; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
