Our Staff

Jesus was our ideal model for Christian Education; he devoted his life to telling people about this Father and bringing them to Him.  Through commitment to Jesus, we are called to be his disciples and continue his work on earth.  Contact Scott Russell for more information.

 

Nursery/Toddler Care

Offered all morning for children under the age of 3. Our caregivers give parents peace of mind knowing that their children can play all morning while they attend either of our worship services and an adult church school class.

The Camels – 4 year olds and Kindergartners

These children get the basics of the Bible through a curriculum called HeartShaper. It’s activity-based learning where the Bible stories are put on an understandable level and where the children have games, crafts, manipulatives and songs as well as a take home sheet with more ideas for the family to do at home.

The Caravan – 1st through 5th graders

These children experience different Bible stories through a Workshop Rotation Model. The children are divided into 3 tribes named after some of the 12 tribes of Israel. This year our tribes are: Reuben – 1st grade, Judah – 2nd grade, and Naphtali – 3rd/4th/5th grade. An adult shepherd who gets to know each child and shares in the Bible stories tends these tribes. These tribes ‘travel’ to different stations where they experience a different part of the Bible story. These stations rely on teaching through the theory of multiple intelligences- or the ideas that children learn in different ways. The tribes experience the lesson through: Storytelling, Arts and Crafts, Puppetry and Drama, and Food/Video/Games. There are 8 themed units this year that are taught over a 4-week period. They are: Isaiah, Jesus fulfills the Prophecies, Handel’s Messiah, Jesus’ Baptism, Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet, Appearances of the Holy Spirit, The 23rd Psalm and David.

The Wilderness – 6th, 7th, and 8th graders

These youth have moved on from the Caravan to a class that allows them to really know their bibles. Through a curriculum called “Live It!” these lesson will relate modern needs to our pre teens – themes on: Living Positively in a Media Age, Building Character, Under Pressure, Growing Spiritually, and Making Good Decisions will be discussed this year.  They also enjoy painting the walls of their classroom based on different Bible stories.

The Promised Land – 9th through 12th graders

These young adults jump into the hot topics of today and find scriptural explanations and discussions on what it really means to believe. They also dive deeper into the scripture from the morning services. From these discussions they put their faith into action through service to the church and the community all while having a good time.
