Promiseland, our version of Sunday
School, is for
kids in Preschool through 5th grade. Our goals for Promisland
are:
Kids will know
that God loves them no matter what.
Kids learn they
can trust God no matter what.
Kids learn they
need to treat others the way they want to be
treated.
We provide a caring,
nurturing environment where children learn
biblical truths in a child- targeted, relevant and
creative way.
Promiseland activities include games,
fellowship, crafts, snacks, music, small group and
large group time and lots of fun! Large group time
teaches the weekly Bible lesson through skits
and games.
During small group, kids will discuss
the Bible lesson and learn life application
through discussion, games and prayer.
Promiseland is staffed by over 25 volunteers each
Sunday including Shepherds (teachers) who make a
weekly commitment to build a trusting relationship
with our young disciples.
Registration: To
register for Promiseland, complete a
