Sprouts

This is a ministry offering for 4th and 5th graders who wish to participate in a covenant group on Sunday evenings during non-pandemic times, September through April. The children learn what it means to be a true disciple of Christ n his or her daily practice of:

  • Acts of Compassion (helping others)
  • Acts of Justice (helping our world)
  • Acts of devotion (relating to God)
  • Acts of Worship (praising God)

The children practice their discipleship by going out into the community and helping those in need, just as Jesus did. A few of the projects our Sprouts have participated in include: a poverty tour of Greenville, the Transformation Walk, Bags of Blessing, the CROP Hunger Walk, The Salvation Army, SOS bags, and helping out in various Miracle Hill Ministries’ missions.
