Preschool

God Cares for Us! Jesus is our friend! The Bible is a special book!

Preschool ministry gives our youngest children (Birth through Kindergarten) a loving environment filled with hands on learning experiences, to learn these and other Biblical foundational truths. Children learn best through play and teaching is based on fun-filled learning centers.

SUNDAY

Security

To ensure the security and safety of each child we use the security check-in system Checkpoint. Parents will be directed to a kiosk to check-in their child. They will receive a name badge for the child and a parent badge, which will show a new and unique matching number each week for security purposes. First time guests please sign-in at the Preschool or Children’s Desks.

SPECIAL NEEDS

We desire for every child to have a place where they can learn about God’s love and where families can worship and serve. We ask that parents register their child so that we may know best how to meet their needs. We use combinations of an orientation, short-term pull out class, and integration of special needs children into the existing LIFEgroups with ‘buddies'.
