ELEMENTARY: Kindergarten - 5th Grade
Upon arrival, please check-in your child at one of our check-in printers (located in the lobby and the upstairs elementary hallway) Keep the parent tag with you for pick-up. If you have nursery/preschool children, the same tag will work for all kids at pick-up. Some parents tear it in half, and one goes upstairs and the other goes downstairs for pick-up.
Your child will attend corporate worship with you in the sanctuary. Children will be dismissed to Sunday School before the offering. Their Sunday School teachers will meet them in the foyer and take them into the Elementary Assembly room.
Our Sunday School curriculum is The Gospel Project. The three-year study covers both the Old and the New Testament, focusing on a different Bible story each week.

Talk with kids about how the religious leaders acted like they were righteous, but they did not have love.
