Children’s Sunday School Program

Preschool (ages 2 ½ through 4 years old)

Curriculum: Lesions out of picture Bible
Purpose:   To start building the basic foundation of a Christ centered, C.O.B. based lifestyle through teaching and church worship experiences.

Our classroom is large, painted in bright primary colors.  The furniture is age-appropriate sized, with a reading center (in a bath tub), a house keeping center, play center, and art center.  The area is handicapped accessible and equipped.  We are ready and able to include special needs children.


Teachers Sue Bock, Bonnie Hoffman

Special events

Our youth class provides the entire Children’s Dept. with a Christian based carnival the last Sunday in August during the usual class hour.  Our youth provide an Easter egg hunt Easter Sunday morning during the usual class hour also.

Children's Church

Children's Church meets on 2nd. and 4th.Sunday of each month after the scripture reading in church. This worship experience is designed for children enrolled in kindergarten thru 5th grade. We meet on the first floor.
​
Children will hear scripture during God's Story/Our Story. This is followed by a message about the scripture - the messages often involve skits and puppets or games. Children will learn worship songs - both traditional hymns and contemporary praise songs. We will work on learning the doxology and the Lord's prayer so we can participate during "big church." Children will also create a classroom project about the worship topic for the day. Come and join us at Children's Church we can't wait to see you!
