Pre-Kindergarten & Kindergarten: Children & Worship (Room 106)
This is a special place to be with God, to talk with God, to listen to God, and to hear the stories of God. These words begin every lesson of the innovative Young Children & Worship approach we use with our Pre-K and K children, pioneered by Sonja Stewart and Jerome Berryman. Each lesson also includes a response activity and a “feast.” This age group begins worship in the Sanctuary with their parents, and then leaves during the second hymn to begin this class that extends through the Sunday School period.
1st – 2nd Grades: Come and See(Room 104)
Building on the foundation from Children & Worship, the 1st – 3rd grade children are introduced to a new set of Bible stories from Sonja Stewart’s sequel Following Jesus as well as songs, signing, and prayer practices to continue their spiritual formation.
After Worship:
1st – 6th Grades: CrossRoads: Education for the Journey(Rooms 101 – 109 & Theater)
Elementary-grade children grow in their faith as age-group shepherds and teachers share the Good News through our workshop-based program. Each Sunday the Bible story is actively experienced in colorful, stimulating learning environments which include computers, arts and crafts, storytelling, games & puzzles, drama, cooking, and mission workshops.
Our four children’s choirs (from Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade) have weekly practices from 11:30-12:15. Children are escorted from their classes to choir practices.
