Nursery Ministry

Ages newborn – 3 | Nursery is provided for all services

Our nursery staff is employed by the church year-round and have been trained to provide an exciting and educational Christian environment as well as provide a safe atmosphere. Videos, music classes, crafts and the like reinforce positive learning at an early age. Assistants in the younger nurseries give special care to the babies to ensure their security and their prescribed schedules. Our nursing room and sleeping room for the babies are pleasant, quiet, and well stocked with supplies and rockers for nursing mothers.

Terry Parker

My name is Terry Parker. I was born and raised in Baton Rouge, Louisiana but have lived in Texas for the last 43 years. I met my husband here in Texas. We have been married for 38 years and are the proud parents of three boys. One married. I attended Louisiana State University and University of Southwestern Louisiana (USL). I am an avid LSU Tiger fan! The Beach is my favorite place to relax!
Children and Seniors have a special place in my heart. I have been in Cost Control, Inventory Control, Graphic Arts and other jobs but my most treasured job was being a Pre School Teacher for 11 years and now a Sunday School Director for the 4/5 year olds and the Nursery Director here at the Freedom Center. Planting seeds of Jesus to HIS little children is the most rewarding thing I have had the privilege to do!

Freedom Culture

Families on the Go “Freedom Culture” is a new discipleship program led by Jean & Eman Esmaily and overseen by our Children’s Ministry Director Katie Sharp. It is offered for kids through our Families on the Go initiative. We focus on scripture memoriza

This new program provides a deep and rich atmosphere for children to be immersed in the Word of God and encourage kids to grow together and build relationships and a foundation that will last all of their lives.

Jean and Eman Esmaily

We are the Esmaily’s – Eman & Jean + our two little ones, Nissi & Jesse! God has brought us to the Freedom Center and made it our church family, who we are honored to serve. Jean has been attending the Freedom Center since she was a young child, and Eman was saved here in 2010. We are so grateful for the growth of families that God has produced in this church and for the love that He has put in our hearts to serve this growth by ministering to children! Our heart is that all children that come to the Freedom Center will be blessed with strong biblical foundations and a heart that is in love with Jesus. Our vision is that engaging children in discipleship early in their life will lead them to develop a culture of freely worshiping God and choosing to follow Jesus throughout their life. We believe that experiencing God’s presence and power is not limited by age and that the time we invest in a child today will help shape who they are in Christ tomorrow. We are excited and committed to the role God has put us in to share this mission!
