Preschool

"But Jesus called the children to him and said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these," (Luke 18:16)logo-k-kids-full-stacked.

Our Preschool Ministry provides God-inspired, Bible-centered, fun-filled opportunities for your young child to learn about the Word of God. Our teachers are excited to introduce stories of wonder and amazement from the Bible. All of this is accomplished through our excellent member volunteers who share God’s vision of bringing up children in Him.  

Our Vision:

We desire to provide a safe and secure environment to allow our preschool children to experience the love of Jesus through our volunteers and learn of His love through worship, lessons, and play. We want to partner with our preschool parents to assist them through out the week in spiritual growth for their children through our weekend activities. We desire that our volunteers are trained, uplifted, and praised for their efforts so they may give their best to the preschool children.

Our Mission:

Teaming up with kids & theiri families to discover God in creative & fun ways that impact their hearts and actions.  

Our goals for our Preschool children to learn:

  • "God Made Me"
  • "Jesus Loves Me"
  • "I can share Jesus with others"
