Learn With Us
We believe education transforms hearts and minds. From nursery through adulthood, SPC offers opportunities for learning, spiritual growth, and community.
Children’s Ministry: Sunday Studio
Children begin in worship with a special “ First Pew ” time with the pastor, then head to Sunday Studio — an engaging space for Bible stories, art, activities, and fellowship.
