Children & Youth Ministries
At Cedar Lake Church, we love children and youth! We are committed to providing a welcoming and caring environment where young people and their families can grow in faith, build friendships, and develop a meaningful relationship with Jesus. To support this mission, we offer the following programs and services:
Pathfinder Club
Our Pathfinder Club provides young people ages 10–17 with exciting opportunities for adventure, friendship, and spiritual growth. Through camping, outdoor activities, practical skills, community service, and leadership development, Pathfinders learn to grow in character, deepen their relationship with Jesus, and make a positive difference in the world. Contact us for more information.
Adventurer Club
Our Adventurer Club offers children ages 4–9 a fun and nurturing environment to learn about Jesus, explore God's creation, and develop important life skills. Through hands-on activities, games, crafts, and family-centered experiences, Adventurers build friendships, strengthen their faith, and discover the joy of serving others. Contact us for more information.
Sabbath School Classes
Join our Sabbath School classes for Beginners, Kindergarten, Primary, Juniors, Teens, and Youth! Through engaging Bible lessons and activities, children grow in faith and friendship in a welcoming environment with dedicated teachers. There's a place for every child!
In-person meetings every Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 10:40 a.m.
Vacation Bible School
VBS is a fun and exciting opportunity for children to learn about Jesus, make new friends, and grow in their faith! Through engaging Bible stories, music, games, crafts, and hands-on activities, children discover God's love in a welcoming and joyful environment.
Our VBS usually happens in the month of July. Check our events page and check if our next VBS has already been scheduled.
K–8 Christian School
Cedar Lake Seventh-day Adventist Elementary School provides a caring Christian environment focused on each child’s academic, spiritual, social, and emotional growth. We prioritize a safe and supportive atmosphere where every student is valued and inspired to reach their full potential.
9–12 Christian School
GLAA is a boarding Christian academy that serves grades 9 through 12. Our primary goal is for each student to make and maintain a decision for Jesus Christ and actively learn how to put Christianity into action through serving others.
