Our mission is provide a safe, nurturing environment for our children so that they may be able to hear and receive the love of God.

Awana

12th Street Awana meets every Wednesday night from 6-7:30 September - April. The mission of Awana is to reach boys and girls with the gospel of Jesus Christ and to train them to serve Him. The focus of the program is scripture memory and the children also enjoy games, singing, and a whole group lesson. Awana begins as early as preschool (potty trained) and continues through 5th grade. 6th graders may choose to stay for an additional year of Awana or transition up to youth group. If you are interested in helping with this ministry, please seek out Deacon Caleb Stout.
vbs

Each July, 12th Street Baptist Church comes together to host an amazing five day adventure for the community. Over 70 adult and teen volunteers work together for the common goal of sharing the gospel and building the faith in a fun way for children and families. The program is high energy, professionally run, and enthusiastically embraced by both volunteers and participants. Serving in this ministry is an awesome opportunity to get to know people at church. Please join us if you can! If you would like to help, contact Pastor Thaddeus Stout or Sister Angie Layton.
