ARK CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
is a program
at FUMC that was launched on
March 8, 2008.

 
One of the most familiar stories of refuge and safety in the Bible revolves around the ark that Noah built. 
In order to save his family from the ravages of the flood, he constructed a massive boat as shelter
from the storm.  Today, the Christian church can serve the same purpose for our children --
a fun and safe escape from a troubled world.

In a nutshell, ARK will be a fun day for children of all ages...like a one-day VBS!

The acronym A.R.K. also will serve as the theme of the ministry: Acts of Random Kindness!
