Pre-School Ministry

The Pre-school and Kindergarten Class, meets from 9:45 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. each Sunday, is the first structured learning environment that children are introduced too. Here they begin to learn about the Bible through song, stories, crafts, and games. Learning about God can never start to young.

CHILDREN'S MINISTRY ~ Grades 1-5

PROMISELAND ~ Grades 1-3

The Promiseland curriculum is developed from following values:

Promiseland is a child-targeted ministry. We attempt to look at everything we do through a child's eyes. We plan activities that are age-appropriate and engaging to children.

Promiseland values the teaching of the Bible creatively. We teach Bible lessons through realistic drama sketches, video clips, creative storytelling, and comtemporary music. We use surprises, games, and fun activities which vary from week to week to creatively interact with the kids.

Promiseland values FUN! We want kids to have fun in Promiseland. While kids keep coming back for FUN, we can accomplish our mission by continuing to nurture and teach them spiritually. We want our children to keep coming back for more. Since we have the most incredible message to tell about our AWESOME God, we just cannot allow Sunday School to be boring. We pledge to make Promiseland the best two hours of yours child's week.

 

LIVE B.I.G. ~ Grades 4-6

LIVE B.I.G. curriculum is focused on helping tweens come to know the love of God through Jesus Christ. This is the next level to growing and learning how to be a friend of Jesus.

• It's an adventure where tweens will hear, see and live their belief in God.
• It's: music, art, theater, dance, laughter, discussion, imagination, education, entertainment, sight, sound, cool graphics, hands-on activities, games, crafts, snacks, bible stories, worship, prayer and so much more.
• It's helping students grow as children of God by taking what they have learned during Sunday School and using it in their everyday lives.
• It's based on "Three B.I.G. Truths"

  1. God is a Great Big God.
  2. God loves us with a Great Big Love.
  3. We are part of God's Great Big World.

God has a wonderful plan for each person...He knew even before He created this world what beauty He would bring forth from our lives

.Romans 10:9-11 - “Today, I confess that Jesus is my “Boss”. He is Lord over all people, even those who do not acknowledge Him. He is the living Lord over my past, present and future; over my work and leisure. In Christ, I am rescued, saved and fulfilled.”
