Milestones





Parents and Grandparents are key in the process of passing on faith to their children. Milestone ministry is a way the congregation can help families live the promises of Baptism. Milestone events will give families “tools” to use at home to teach faith concepts. Milestones are not just for children! We celebrate milestones across the generations. Celebrations for each of the Milestones will be held during worship services in respective congregations through out the year.


Examples of milestones are:

Baptism

Starting Sunday School

Recieving a Bible

Let Us Pray...

First Communion

Confirmation

Graduation

Empty Nesting

Vocation

Rogation-Soil Conservation

and more....
