OUR MISSION:

Helping KIDS live in an intimate relationship with God.

 

Downtown: 3 months - Preschool

Are you ready to sing, play, giggle and learn? Load up your little ones and head Downtown where our mission is to introduce living in an intimate relationship with God. Our babies and toddlers enjoy songs and hands on lessons from Bible Buddies that show God’s wonderful Creation and Love. Dedicated volunteers provide a safe and welcoming environment with a repetitive structure appropriate for this age group.

As they grow each year, kids cruise on over to the next class to experience God’s word through small group activities and large group storytelling and worship. From the moment they enter the room, our children are engaged in interesting activities that introduce the day’s topic. Large group storytelling brings the Bible to life for preschoolers and an upbeat worship time leaves them jumping and smiling! Small groups back in the classroom allow kids to connect with friends and their leader, developing relationships that make this environment meaningful and familiar.

Uptown: Kindergarten-4th grade

The best way to start the week begins with a stop in Uptown. Our comprehensive curriculum uses both large and small group environments to reach school-age children. The Uptown Theatre is a vibrant venue for live drama and contagious praise and worship in a large group se¬ing. Bible stories, real-life situations, silly surprises and songs take center stage thanks to a team of gifted volunteers.

This child-targeted experience effectively reaches kids as they begin to apply God’s Word to their own lives. Small groups shepherded by commi¬ed volunteers connect each child with friends they can learn with and adults they can lean on. Relevant discussions and a¬ention-grabbing activities help our kids grow in their faith as they grow in an intimate relationship with God
