Nursery Team:

Provide care for infants and toddlers, 7 months (sitting up) to 4 years old. Expect to do lots of cuddling, rocking, getting on the floor, and playing with the babies. The toddlers need plenty of play interaction and direction. A very short and simple lesson is taught, but the primary role is to love, bless, hug, read books, and encourage.

Sunday School:

Ages 2-5 = Beginners, Preschool & Pre-K

Preschool Team members serve a very important part of the spiritual training for our little ones.  You are also serving parents when you provide a safe, loving, and fun environment for their children to learn more about what it means to be a child of God!

Preschool children are busy little ones! They are learning so much as they play and interact with others. Please consider your time with children as precious and worthwhile, not as simply babysitting or free-play time. Direct their play, engage with them, and talk together.

Three main truths are taught throughout the year: God made me, God loves me, Jesus wants to be my friend forever!

Beginners/2-3’s Class:

Provide care for 2-year-olds in a more structured environment. There is still plenty of playing and reading books, but you will have a simple short lesson to teach.

Preschool/3-4’s Class:

Provide care for 3-year-olds in a structured environment. There is some playing and reading books, but you will have a simple lesson to teach. This class also watches a Bible video story and makes a take home craft.

Pre-K/4-5’s Class:

Provide care for 4-5year-olds in a structured environment. There is limited playing and reading books, but you will have an interactive lesson to teach. This class also watches a Bible video story and makes a take home craft.

K-4 Team:  Kindergarten, 1st-2nd Grade, 3rd-4th Grade

K-4 Team members have the opportunity to teach more and provide input into the hearts and minds of these growing boys and girls. The curriculum focuses on three main points throughout the year: I need to make the wise choice; I can trust God no matter what; I should treat others the way I want to be treated.

Each class has a step-by-step curriculum guide with video Bible stories, application activities, scripture memory activities, prayer times, and time for you to speak into their lives. There is prep time needed to watch the videos in advance and read through the curriculum. The children love the curriculum, and everything you need is provided for you in the class.

Kindergarten:

Kindergartners are just learning to read. There is more time given to coloring, take home crafts, and interactive activities to teach the verse of Scripture or Bible story.

1st & 2nd Grade:

This class has a video Bible story, memory verse, interactive activities, and they start the God Encountering Tools program.

3rd & 4th Grade:

This class has a video Bible story, memory verse, interactive activities, and they continue with the God Encountering Tools program.  They are taught to apply and live out what they are learning.
