Preschool
Children, come and listen to me.
I will teach you to worship the Lord.
Psalm 34:11
Our summer Program this year is a Circus!
Your preschooler will enjoy our Circus themed summer program as they learn about the Greatest Acts of God, starting with Moses going through the Judges.
Preschoolers can be dropped off downstairs in the children's wing at 9 am and picked back up following the second worship service.
The preschoolers will be our very own Monkeys, Elephants and Tigers.
Don't worry though we will have plenty of animal trainers on hand to help them enjoy God's Greatest Show on Earth.
School Year Sundays and Wednesdays
Fall lessons will be from Genesis, starting with creation and going through Joseph. Winter lessons will begin with Baby Jesus and go through Jesus' early ministry. Spring lessons will be more lessons about Jesus and an Easter unit. Summer 2010 will be lessons about Moses, Joshua and the judges.
Children from birth through 1st grade will wear security wristbands on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. They are to be placed on the child before dropping them off at the classroom. These are in addition to the nametags which will allow teachers to know your child's name and any allergies.
