CHILDREN’S MINISTRY

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
Matthew 19:14

We have an ever-expanding Children's Church Ministry for infants through elementary school. Every Sunday, during both of our worship services, we provide a safe environment with caring and committed teachers. We offer a place where kids have fun with crafts, games and stories – all as they learn about who Jesus is. CFTN is a place where they can grow and develop a relationship with Him.

We offer Vacation Bible School and Summer Camp.

Email Bella Thomasson / 818.786.1403 for information on children's activities



MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

At CFTN, students have an opportunity to develop strong friendships while they grow in their faith. Students meet Sundays at 9:30AM for Bible study and activities downstairs in the Chapel room in the main church building and then are encouraged to attend the 11:00AM worship service.

Email James and Leah Slemmons / 818.653.3656 for all Middle & High School student activities.

LIFE GROUPS

“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” Acts 2:42

Below is a current listing of groups that meet during the week throughout Glendale and L.A. The groups are informal and relational, some are mixed, some for families, some for women some for men. Life groups are a great way to make new friends, develop a sense of community and deepen your relationship with God. Find a group that’s right for you and get connected!

Email Marta Gardner for more information on Life Groups.

INTERNATIONAL MISSIONS

“Declaring His glory among the nations.” Psalm 96:3

  MISSION AFRICA

Our MISSION AFRICA team traveled with The Word Is Out to Kampala & Mbale, Uganda. Both conferences were well attended and many seeds were planted. In both cities, the pastors and their communities are hungry for a deeper understanding of the Word of God and are on fire! It's incredibly exciting to see what God is doing on that continent. Here you can view a short video from the trip.





CFTN supports Pastor Alan's International Bible teaching ministry The Word Is Out, an intensive study of the Bible, which he has taught at pastor conferences, churches and in seminaries throughout Africa, India and the U.S.
IMPACT NDOLA
A CFTN team traveled to Ndola, Zambia where Pastor Alan headed up the Pastor's Conference. The team partnered with the students of Northrise University and reached out to the community and the city of Ndola for Christ. Read the blog from a past Impact Ndola.
We also support Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child, collecting shoe boxes to be sent to children around the world to share the love of Christ.                                                           

There are many opportunities here for you to get involved in CFTN missions.


PRAYER & PRAYER REQUESTS

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Philippians 4:6

We believe in the awesome power of prayer. There is always someone from the prayer team available at the front of the church after each service to pray with you or for you. If you’d like for us to pray for you during the week, please email your prayer request to Judy Hilsinger.
