Emily Lalor serves as our minister to Youth and Children. She says:
My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming space where all children feel loved, have fun, and grow in their relationships with one another and with Jesus Christ. I hope our youth experience meaningful fellowship not only within our church walls, but also throughout our community and in special places like Camp. It is a joy to support and encourage each child as they grow in faith and friendship.
