Our mission is to glorify God by multiplying mature disciples and healthy churches that know Jesus Christ and make Him known.
Bridge Kids
Our goal is to create a fun and exciting place where kids will learn how to be passionate in their relationship with Christ and learn how to share that faith with others.
BRIDGE KIDS SUNDAY MORNINGS
Each Sunday morning, we offer classes for Nursery to 5th Grade at 9am & 11am.
Nursery – 2 years
We believe even even our youngest kids can be discipled and learn about a loving relationship with Jesus. Our trained volunteers patiently serve our babies in a safe and loving environment.
2’s & 3’s
Our toddler ages will enjoy learning through free-play, worship, Bible lessons, and age-appropriate crafts. Our dedicated teachers and volunteers work hard to model patience and Christ-like love to each child. At this age, our 1st hour class receives a simple snack of goldfish or veggie stix. Our 2nd hour class will have a more customized snack that reinforces the lesson.
Preschool – Kindergarten
Our preschool and Kindergarten kids will enjoy playing and learning in an engaging, age-appropriate room. We start our morning with free-play, then move on to worship, followed by a focused Bible lesson. Our craft time will reinforce and remind the kids what they have learned during the lesson. During our 1st hour, a snack of goldfish or veggie stix will be served. During 2nd hour, our kids will be served a more customized snack.
1st-5th Grade
Our elementary-aged kids meet in our Launch Pad with fun activities to help them start thinking about the upcoming lesson. They then move on to Worship, followed by their lesson. Our teachers use a variety of object lessons, games, activities, and review questions to reinforce what they have learned.
