E.A.S.L. was started in 1995 in response to a lethal handgun accident involving one boy in our community. Our congregation responded by starting a fall youth soccer program, which at its peak, served 160+ children. While our soccer program has run its course, our basketball program has grown and expanded. This is a skills-based, non-competitive league where all the children get to play. Growing out of the sports ministry, an arts ministry has flourished offering a variety of summer camps.
Our Goals and Core Values
To make the church once again a center for nurturing healthy bodies, creative minds and spirits.
To help children understand that they are gifted by God and when they use their gifts they glorify God, learn mutual respect, self-esteem, and the importance of teamwork.
To encourage all children to do their very best and to use their God-given talents as much as possible.
To foster a life-long appreciation for healthy bodies, the arts, and spirituality.
