Ministries
A place to grow and belong
From the nursery to lifelong learning, there is a community here for every age and stage.
Kids'
From the nursery to elementary, our children's ministry nurtures the youngest members of our church family in a safe, joyful place to grow in faith and friendship.
Kids in Worship
Children begin worship with their families and are then invited to Sunday School, offered at 10:00 AM for kindergarten through fifth grade in the Courtyard classroom. Because every child learns differently, the same message is explored through art, storytelling, science, and music, so their faith can take root in many ways.
Infant & Toddler Care
Infant and toddler care is provided during the Sunday 10:00 AM service and at many ministry events. Our team includes experienced staff who are fingerprinted and background checked, along with trained volunteers, so your child is nurtured in a safe and caring place. An usher can point you to the Nursery.
Service Opportunities
Our Student Ministry program helps middle and high school students grow as leaders by serving in children’s ministry, congregational life, and worship. Students can be a buddy to a younger child during worship, lend a hand in Sunday School, or assist in the worship service—all while developing meaningful leadership skills and discovering how God can use their gifts to bless our church family.
Children & Family Ministry Contact

Questions? Contact Rev. Faith Schierholt.
Students
Our student ministries walk alongside middle and high school students as they grow in faith, build lasting friendships, and discover how to serve God and their neighbors.
Our heart for students is simple: that every young person would be known, loved, and encouraged to follow Jesus, and would discover that they are the church of today and tomorrow.

Adult
Adults at WPC find many paths to grow deeper: studying Scripture together, forming faith, and serving side by side.
Adult Bible Studies
Our Wednesday Bible Study meets at 9:30 AM in the Pastor's office for fellowship and study of God's Word. Contact the church office to join, or to hear about other studies meeting through the week.
Wednesdays at Westminster
Our weekly adult Bible study meets every Wednesday evening for dinner, friendship, and deeper study of a book or passage of Scripture. We gather at 6pm in the Fellowship Center, and discussion begins at 6:30pm. Each week includes group conversation or engagement in a spiritual practice designed to help us grow in faith together. If you are interested or have questions, please contact Pastor Dave or Pastor Faith.
Ministry & Service Groups
There are many ways to serve and connect: the Chancel Choir, WPC Women quarterly events, and our Sunday coffee and meal preparation. Our Stephen Ministry offers confidential one-to-one care for hard seasons; contact Pastor Dave to learn more.
Music
Music ministry at WPC brings together many gifts to create a meaningful and welcoming worship experience. Our 10:00 AM service is led by Ed Smart and features organ, chancel choir, and praise band. The Chancel Choir rehearses on Thursdays at 7:30 PM, and all are welcome—no audition required.
“Worship is our response to the overtures of love from the heart of the Father.”
