Pre-K through Grade 6
Our desire is to offer children a place of wonder and discovery as they learn Bible truths and grow in relationship with Jesus. Children are encouraged and challenged to develop their faith in God through weekly lessons, special activities and programs, as well as hands-on mission opportunities.

Sunday School at 10:30AM
Our Sunday School curriculum uses the "rotation model", which allows children to experience the Bible in many different ways. When children see and hear and do, they retain 90% of the experience. As a result, the Bible story and its meaning will stay with them for life. Children move among different centers, such as art, computer, cooking, games, music & movement, science, storytelling, and video. Sunday School is interesting -- and fun.
