Child Protection Policy
We believe it is the right of every child and developmentally challenged adult to be safe and protected at all times, and especially within the fellowship of Jesus Christ. To that end we have a protection policy that requires all workers and volunteers with children, youth and the developmentally challenged to go through an online course provided by our annual conference and to submit to state and federal background checks. Within our ministry to vulnerable persons, there must be two adults present at all times, at least one of whom is trained and certified. Certification must be renewed every 5 years.
Rotational Model Sunday School
Elementary age children are taught the basics of the Christian faith through study series, usually 6 weeks in length. Each series focuses on a familiar Bible story, person or concept and each week the children explore the topic using a different method of learning. The methods include Art, Cooking, Drama, Computers, Bible Skills and Games, and Video. By presenting the material through a variety of methods and learning styles, the message is reinforced and remains exciting. If your child has attended a vacation bible school in recent years, she or he has probably experienced this method of Christian education.
Nursery Age Sunday School
Sunday School is provided for children who are no longer in diapers, but not yet in kindergarten. Songs, crafts, stories and games are used to teach children to love, trust and revere God and to respect and care for each other. Children are introduced to Jesus in his role as the Son of God and our care giver, Shepherd and Savior.
