We offer a loving Preschool Ministry program on Sunday mornings during our DiscipleU Educational Hour, 9:00am-10:15am, in Classroom 12, for children three years of age and potty trained through five years of age, not enrolled in Kindergarten . Using an engaging and inspiring environment and striving to lay a foundation of faith that will last a lifetime, preschool children will consistently hear three basic truths: God made them; God loves them; and Jesus wants to be their friend forever.


Our Preschool Ministry Team engages children with exciting Bible stories and encourages them to be active participants in a variety of age appropriate activities designed to teach them the tremendous truths about God and His love for them. For the safety of all children, all of our team members are background checked and fingerprinted as well as CPR and First Aid certified.

WHAT WE ARE TEACHING IN FEBRUARY

"WOW!" A SERIES FROM THE GOSPELS ON JESUS' MIRACLES

Whether it’s a rocket car powered by soda and mints or a tornado in a water bottle, there’s so much in our world that can fill us with awe. The world of STEM is full of things that look like little miracles, but they’re nothing compared to the miracles God can perform. In this four-week teaching series, we will be taking a look at some of the miracles that Jesus performed during His ministry. Through stories showing the power of Jesus, they’ll no doubt say, “WOW!” Jesus has the power to heal, to calm our fears, to provide, and to save. We look forward to all of the kids joining us during our Sunday morning DiscpleU Educational Hour, 9:15am-10:00am. (Check-In Begins at 9:00am)

  • whisper, whisper - learning about church

    We love having families worship together. If you prefer to keep your young children with you but need to step away from the service, we offer a quiet place in our Prayer Chapel or you can walk around in our Narthex where the service is shown on a TV.


    We also have a wonderful resource for our families with younger children called, "Whisper, Whisper - Learning About Church." This book explains all that happens during a worship service and it even includes `Sanctuary Tips' and `Teaching Moments.' Stop by our Family Resource Library to check out this book. Take it home and read it as a family with your little ones. Then, take it one step further and talk about a worship service and why we do what we do in church.


  • fAmily resource library

    Our Youth and Family Ministry (YFM) Team is devoted to the whole family throughout all the phases. We take a personal approach to ministry spanning a family's ages and stages. Each area partners dedicated staff, invested and trained small group leaders, and loving, supportive parents to leverage relationships for the sake of deep faith in the lives of our children and students. Our community purposefully seeks to walk with families as they raise godly and incredible kids. Our specific ministry areas share timely encouragement and program information.


    We have a wonderful Family Resource Library with books from newborn to college age on topics including "what to expect" at each age, as well as a variety of other topics. These resources are available on the patio every week.
