Growing in Faith
Children and Their Families Ministry
We are on the verge of celebrating our 100th anniversary as a community of faith. This is Myers Park Presbyterian Church’s 99th year!
As we look to the centennial, we will be listening for stories: the stories of Jesus that shaped the heart of our church, the stories of members who have been transformed within this community, and the stories of our mission partners who are grateful for our service together.
This year in Children and Family Ministries (CFM), we will be leaning into those stories: the stories of scripture, the stories of church members, and the stories our children have to share.
We hope the booklet below will orient you to all the things CFM offers. You can meet our team members, learn about the ministries that are under the scope of CFM, and take a peek at our calendar filled with many opportunities for fun and formation this year.
As we tell stories together this year, we give thanks for the greatest of stories: God’s love for us in Christ. May we receive and rejoice and share and serve in that great love this year.
In Christ,
Lisa Hickman and the Children and Family Ministry Team

Outreach for Kids
Encourage your children to get their hands in the mud of missions as they learn tangible ways to show compassion to others.
Sprout Outreach
Sprout Outreach connects children (4 years through 2nd Grade) and their families to local Charlotte neighbors and mission partners. Sprout Outreach is designed to be a first experience in serving God and neighbor in the Charlotte community and beyond.
Mission Kids
Mission Kids is a great opportunity for our older elementary school kids (3rd – 5th grade) to make strides in leadership and service. Our hope is they will:
- Expand their sense of community beyond their church, home, and school;
- Kindle their curiosity about societal issues and injustices;
- Encourage meaningful connections as they step out in faith to serve God and neighbor;
- Cultivate cheerful hearts for service.
We are grateful for a great team of parents who support and guide our older elementary school kids as they learn what it means to serve Christ in our community. This group lays the foundation for Middle School and High School mission and outreach opportunities.
