find your age group

We use age-appropriate material to guide kids into a growing relationship with Jesus. 

  • Babies from 6 weeks through 24 months utilize our nursery with trained, background-checked volunteers.

  • This program is for 2 - 3 year olds transitioning from the nursery to the preschool class. They will play, sing songs, and read a bible story. Children do not need to be potty trained and have access to a private, multi-stall bathroom.

  • When developmentally ready, our toddlers move up to our preschool program that uses an age-appropriate curriculum to introduce our youngest learners to the God that created them and loves them! Each week they participate in a hands-on Bible story and activities. For children to be promoted to this program, they should be in enrolled in preschool, potty trained and can tolerate a 30-minute lesson. For those with developmental challenges we have a buddy assistance program in which you can sign up. 

  • Our elementary program is for kindergarten though 4th grade and is an age-appropriate experience through the Bible. Each year starting in August, we chronologically walk through the Old and New Testaments.  Starting with large group worship and teach time, kids will then experience age-based small groups discussion and Biblical application activities. We want kids to know that to follow Jesus means we trust Him, love Him and live like Him.  

  • Our 5th and 6th graders enjoy their own space with a specific curriculum designed just for preteens in which they learn to apply Biblical truths and principles to our modern world. Through relevant and age-appropriate content, we strive to equip and empower our preteen students to make wise choices at home and school.
