Our Curriculum

Growing in God’s Word from Ligonier Ministries is a Christ-centered, Bible focused curriculum that is designed to teach children - from toddlers through elementary ages - to know who God is and what he has done in Jesus Christ.

This resource is intentionally crafted to help children:
  • grasp the holiness of God
  • the sinfulness of man, and
  • the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ
—truths at the very heart of the gospel. Rather than offering moral lessons or entertainment-driven teaching, it leads children to see their need for a Savior and invites them to trust in Jesus alone for salvation.

Every Sunday, the curriculum walks children through the unfolding story of redemption, showing them how every part of Scripture points to Christ. They will hear clearly:
  • what the gospel is
  • why repentance and faith matter, and
  • how obedience to Jesus shapes every part of life.

Midweek New City Catechism for Kids

We believe children should be taught the truth of God’s Word from an early age. The New City Catechism for Kids is a rich, modern resource designed to help children in grades K–5 grasp the core truths of the Christian faith in a clear and memorable way. Through question-and-answer teaching rooted in historic Reformed theology, children are grounded in who God is, what he has done in Christ, and what he calls us to believe and live. Through catechism, we desire to cultivate a love for God’s Word and lay a strong theological foundation for a lifetime of faithful Christian living.

We invite your kids to join us on Wednesdays throughout the school year as we prayerfully seek to train up our children in the knowledge of God, cultivating hearts that love him and lives that reflect his grace.

Safety

The safety of your kids is of the utmost importance to us . In order to maintain a safe and secure environment in our Children's Ministry—for your kids and everyone else’s—it’s important that we all work together to follow the proper Check-In and Check-Out procedures that are in place.

Every child’s ID sticker is matched to a parent-identification number, every volunteer is screened with an interview and background check, and every hallway is monitored by security personnel.
