Children's Ministries

Centerville Baptist Church believes that children are the future church. Scripture is clear regarding how Christians are to raise their children.

To this end, the church offers a Children’s Church for those from age three to six and a Jr. Church for those from age seven to twelve.

During these services, children are taught the practical age-appropriate application of God’s Word in a safe, engaging, and fun atmosphere.

The Lord Jesus Christ clearly demonstrated His love for children.

“But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” Mathew 19:14
