Director: Christie Bugner

Most Sunday mornings, our children have the opportunity to learn in a small group outside of the larger worship service. This is voluntary and a decision that is made by each parent. Some of our children choose to stay in the worship service, while others are dismissed following the worship through song. This is designed for children who are too old for the nursery but may have a hard time sitting in a worship service. It is generally for students aged 5-12, but we happily work with parents based on the needs of their children. Special occasions we may not have Children's Church to allow your children to worship with you, as a family. Any questions please see Mrs. Christie.

For over 14 years, Ruffin Stacey has been working with Child Evangelism Fellowship to provide a "Good News Club" at Lincoln Elementary School. Once a week, volunteers from the church teach students about the love of Jesus. This is a totally voluntary program and we are thankful every year for the students who come and enjoy hearing the Gospel. If you have a child at Lincoln Elementary School and are interested in learning more about the Good News Club, please contact Christie Bugner at the Ruffin Stacey Church office.  

Theme for 2026!

Make plans to join us!

We will have supper each night from 5:15-5:45 for students! We will journey thru Ireland as we learn Psalm 23 together. Each night will have game time, crafts, music and scripture....and of course lots of fun along the way. Registeration will be opening soon!

Each year in June, Ruffin Stacey Baptist Church hosts a Vacation Bible School. This is a week filled with fun, learning, the love of Jesus, and memory making. Each year there is a new theme and new ways for children to learn about God. Classes range from Pre-K to 12th grade and it is always a blessing for both the students and the adult leaders who participate. We hope that you will consider joining us next summer.

Dates for 2026! Stay tuned for more information soon!

Each July we have Gems Young Ladies Day Camp. Young ladies entering 6th grade-12th grade come together to see what God has called us to as women of God, cooking, meal prep, crafting, service project and lots of laughs!  Contact Mrs. Christie for information.

Lots of other opportunities for fun and service......
