Children's Ministries
Psalm 127:3 Don't you see that children are God's best gift? (The Message)
Children are an integral part of life at West Hills. Our ministry to children includes them in all aspects of West Hills' church life including special music times in the Sunday service, Children's sermons, all-church game nights and age-appropriate service activities. We also offer regular family-oriented activities to help build strong families and teach our children about following Christ. Our children learn God's Word in weekly Sunday school classes, a summer sports camp at our facility, and summer camps at Camp of the Cascades.
