Kristy McGrath

– Children’s Ministry

Jesus continually lauded the faith of children, and we seek to reflect that with our children’s program. B.L.A.S.T. (Bible Learning And Sharing Together – Grades K-5) and J.A.M. (Jesus And Me – Infants and Toddlers) allows children to play, learn, and thrive, all while growing to understand who God is. We encourage parents to work with our curriculum to continually cultivate the spiritual growth of our students.

Cindi Mcmillan – Lamb’s Ministry

Jesus repeatedly asked Peter if he loved Him in John 21. Peter responds, stating “You know that I love You.” Jesus then commands him “Feed my lambs” (v. 15). Under Cindi’s leadership, Lamb’s Ministry has been feeding the High Desert weekly, sharing God’s love with free support and food.
