Children's Ministry
Children's Ministry Mission Statement:
The Children's Ministry team provides nursery care during Sunday morning worship for children under five years of age, and age-appropriate Bible classes for children from age two through grade six during the second half of the Sunday morning worship time.
Bucks Central Church acknowledges that parents have the primary responsibility for the faith training of their children. God's Garden, our children's ministry, exists to glorify the Father, and to support and encourage parents in raising their children in a loving family of believers.
Our Goals for Children are
- To grow in their worship of God
- To increase their knowledge, understanding, and application of Scripture
- To improve their ability to serve one another with their spiritual gifts
- To develop their commitment to impact the community, nation, and world with the gospel of Jesus Christ
And it is our desire to do this in a way that is caring, creative, joyful, and age-appropriate.
Nursery: Birth - 4 Years
Lisa Reiser, Coordinator
We welcome infants, toddlers, and children up through 4 years old into a loving and playful environment where our child care providers are happy to care for the children of guests and regular attendees. The nursery is open during regular Sunday morning worship to enable parents to participate in the service with peace of mind.
Bible Classes: 2 years - 6th Grade
Lisa Reiser, Coordinator
Children from age two through grade six receive teaching, guidance, and training in God's Word. Our teachers care for the children in a loving, encouraging environment, enabling them to share God's Word in a relevant and age-appropriate way. Throughout the year, we have special ministries and activities to encourage and develop community, service, worship, and outreach.

Youth Ministry
Youth Ministry Mission Statement:
To prepare Christ's young men and women for life-long commitment to God and to his Kingdom.
Biblical Basis:
"You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them; and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus."
(2 Timothy 3:14-15)
"Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord."
(1 Corinthians 15:58)
Our Goals for Youth Ministry are
- To make disciples and followers of Jesus Christ by providing compassionate and personal care through biblical friendship and guidance
- To encourage each youth toward a greater understanding of God's desire for their lives in a cultural context that is often contrary
- To teach Scripture and appropriate parts of the Westminster Standards in an age-appropriate style
- To strengthen the fellowship among teenagers by encouraging friendship, trust, and compassion towards one another
Youth Fellowship
Tom Real, Coordinator
The youth of the church get together about once a month for a fellowship activity. Past activities have included rock climbing, skiing, and an evening at a Christian coffee house. The Rock Fellowship meets on the fourth Friday of each month at Tom Real’s house, 7:15-8:45 pm. Like the name says, it’s a fellowship of rock: high school and college students are invited to join together with Jules and Tom as we pray and play music. We practice songs for performance at offertories during the Sunday worship service.
