Welcome to BLAST Children's Ministry
of Bethel Assembly of God!
What is B.L.A.S.T.? Building LivesAs Scripture Teaches
We want our next generation to be knowledgeable about the Lord and be able to defend their faith as they interact in today's society.
We want the children to experience God's power in their lives in a vibrant and influential way.
We expect the Holy Spirit to do an amazing work in us AND the children on a daily basis in a fun, worshipful environment.
A ministry team of over 100 individuals minister weekly to your children from infancy to 12 years of age. We are enthusiastic about helping families raise children that love God, are filled with His spirit, and can share their faith with confidence!
Weekly Ministries Available through BLAST -
Sundays:
Nursery (in our newly renovated facility).
Pre-school Church for kids ages 3-5. The kids love to study the Bible as it is brought to life through stories, play, drama, crafts, praise and worship. The kids hate to leave!
BLAST Church for Kids are studying the Power of the Holy Spirit. Through song, bible teaching, games, scripture application, some wild and crazy characters and object lessons, kids are seeing God’s power at work - in and through them. We have seen many kids filled with the spirit, praying for the sick, even praying over missionaries. The same Holy Spirit of the Bible is at work today!
Testimony Time: During services we allow the children to share healing testimonies and what they see God doing in their lives and the lives of those around them. Children are so open to prayer and believe that God is going to do what He says He will do!
LIFE Center for Kids – 9:40 -10:30 AM. Our Sunday morning discipleship hour is a place where kids, ages 3-12 (we also have LIFE Center for teens and adults), learn on an age-appropriate level the Word of God, memorizing it and applying it. In smaller groups they are building relationships with both kids and adults that are life changing.
Jr. Impact (For kids in the 5th and 6th grade) -This ministry is especially God given for our students in grades 5 & 6 as they grow in their faith, they receive leadership training, are on ministry teams including praise team, drama, technology, computer graphics, puppets, etc. and they have also had opportunity to serve in the soup kitchen with our very own "Homeless Christian Outreach" ministry under the direction of Doug and Joan Mummert. They also have monthly fun activities.

Thursday Evening Ministries:
Our Royal Ranger Senior Commander, Mr. Andy Stonesifer, and our Missionette Coordinator, Mrs. Katie O’Connor, and their team of amazing leaders, welcome you to join them every Thursday night.
Missionettes is a merited program providing a fun, safe environment for girls as they earn various advancements. Badges, charms and/or pins, may be the tangible achievement, but the real value is the scripture learned, memorized, applied, the skills gained, the memorable friends and experiences that will be with your daughter as she becomes the Strong, Bible savvy Christian women full of the disciplines and passions of a Women of God. Classes are divided by grade levels, and upon completion of all of the levels, each girl that finishes and is passes the evaluations are crowned “Honor” Missionettes.
