Children’s Ministries

At Cumming First UMC, we believe that our Children’s Ministry is a place where a child’s foundation in their faith can firmly be planted.  We guide children to know, show and grow God’s love creating strong roots.   Each week we create fun and an intentional relationship with Jesus, that can grow and flourish.

Impact

Impact meets during the 9:45 Small Group Hour. IMPACT is designed to be a step in-between our young children’s programs and our Middle School Ministry. Kids experience a Bible Truth each week that is reinforced through Bible Stories, games & activities, and engaging conversation. We empower students to reach out and share God’s love with friends in their classrooms & in their community. Bring your Bible and a friend!
