Family Ministry
Welcome to FOC’s Family Ministry!
Family of Christ is a church community built on families. All families may look a little different, but we make up one family together that supports and encourages one another in the Gospel message of Jesus Christ.
Our ministry focuses on a Christ-centered home where families are equipped to use the knowledge and tools they are strengthened with in worship and education in their daily lives throughout the week. In this way, Sunday impacts Monday, and church life becomes daily life. But even more than equipping individual families, Family of Christ strives to encourage a community where families do not feel alone or isolated but know they have a community of believers that together make up Family of Christ.
Our Vision for Family Ministry
Family of Christ Family Ministry acknowledges that parents and significant adults are the primary influencers of our children and youth. Therefore, we partner with and equip these parents and significant adults to raise up the next generation so that they might set their hope in God.
Throughout the year, some of the things we offer for Family Ministry events are:
- Preschool Bible Blessing
- 2nd/3rd Grade Bible Blessing
- Freshman Welcome: Parent Edition
- Senior Blessing
We also invite you to check out our Family Ministry Resource Wall in the lobby of the Worship Center! It’s stocked with helpful tools and materials to support your family’s faith journey at home.
If you have questions about our Family Ministry at Family of Christ, please reach out to our Director of Family & Children's Ministries — Sonja Genke.

Preschool Parent Bible Class // October 12th, 19th & 26th
Children reach many important milestones as they grow, and one of the most meaningful is receiving and beginning to use their very own Bible. To support this, we are offering a three-session course called First Bible Blessing. This course is an integral step in our Faith Milestone Path, which serves as a significant part of Family Ministry at Family of Christ.
Preschool and Kindergarten families, join from 9:30 - 10:45 am in the Children’s Center starting Sunday, October 12. CLICK HERE to sign up!
