We love children and are passionate about equipping parents and passing the faith along to the next generation! From the many children’s resources we make available for sale at our Book Nook, to the Bible studies, crafts, and games in Sunday School and Children’s Church, it’s our desire to see our kids grow to know Jesus and his Word. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us.

Freedom Students

Every Wednesday night we have a Bible study for students in grades 6-12.

We meet to study the Bible and lead students to have a proper understanding of God and the Gospel so we can send them out on mission to reach their friends.

This is a great time for our students to begin to learn who God is or to deepen their knowledge of God.

If you have any questions or would like to receive regular Student Ministry text updates, feel free to reach out to Pastor Aaron.

Location: Freedom Church, 125 E. Main St., Lincolnton
