We have a desire to love and lead families we meet into an everyday walk with Christ. We believe the “felt” needs of most young families today are:
Time & Moments
Families are looking for meaningful moments and family rituals rooted in routine. As parents, they are looking for inspiration, guidance, and solutions to carve out time to create these moments and rituals which emerge to strengthen the family as a whole. These moments of connectivity build a resilience that helps families through the challenging moments in their lives.

Connectivity & Community
Families want to be—and be perceived as—good parents and prioritize their role as such. Young families also strive to lead connected lives, which is a key measurement of success for them. They place a high degree of importance on finding their passion and doing good, which significantly impacts how they approach their families and the role of parenting. The need for connectivity and meaning in life drives their immediate family interactions and spills over into broader definitions of family to include friends, coworkers, and communities, often defined by shared interests or faith. In short, families are looking for a group to “do life” with.
Encouragement & Investment
Families are looking for help with life. Kraft has recently launched a new campaign called Family Greatly where the word "family" has become a verb. Family Greatly creates an environment where perfection is overrated, telling parents that it doesn’t matter how they family, if it is done with kindness, conviction, and purpose. Encouragement and Investment should be focused into these three categories: Finances, Marriage, and Parenting.
Meaning & Value
Families will only invest in what’s intentionally meaningful. Ministries need to stand for something to appeal to the meaningful connection parents desire.
Our Desire is
To see families:
- Connecting to the church and other families in a healthy, spiritually motivated atmosphere.
- Intentionally Spending time together as a family and with others.
- Growing in their walk with Jesus and passing along that faith from one generation to the next.
- Celebrating Spiritual Milestones and Transitions within the body of Christ.
To promote and execute a ministry-wide culture of cultivating the family as the primary source for spiritual nurturing of the next generation.
To intentionally influence parents to be the spiritual leaders of the home.
To work hand-in-hand with parents through the Kidz and Students age-group ministries to:
- Share and Invite kidz, students, and parents to respond to the Gospel.
- Equip and Support the parental responsibility of discipling their own children.
