Elementary
Our elementary classes feature a large group/small group model. Children have the opportunity to worship and learn from the Bible in large group. In small group, they learn through games, service projects, activities, discussion questions, and prayer. They make lasting relationships with their class and their small group leaders when they have fun together over time.

BREAKS
We do like to give our dedicated leaders a break and do so primarily on holiday weekends. All breaks will be announced in the weeks prior to the break.
Saturday or Sunday?
Whether you are joining us on Saturday evenings or Sunday mornings, we want to make it as easy as we can for you to find the place for your child to have a wonderful time learning how much they are loved by God and by us! Take a look at the different weekly programming we have available for our Elementary Kids.

SUNDAYS
