The Breiner Family
Kristin is enthusiastically in charge of leading kids to a lasting relationship with Christ through true worship experiences, interacting with the Bible and God, and helping parents become the lead spiritual teachers for their kids. Jesus calls us, by example, to bring the children to Him and draw them right in to the center of the church family. We long to renew that balance of the church here.
