During the 11:00am Children's Worship service we use a Children's literature called Elevate. It is based on an eight week schedule each eight week unit has a different theme. Children experience each week of Elevate in three parts: an opening activity, a large group teaching time with skit and Bible story, and a small group time with several choices of activities. We use a variety of methods to teach the Bible message creatively so your child will have a funfilled learning experience.
Our current theme is called "On The Trail" The Exodus of Isreal
