Chapel Time
Each week on Monday and Tuesday, teachers and children gather in the Chapel with Pastor Steve Henderson and Associate Pastor Brian Frack for Bible Stories and Music. It’s a delightful time of wonder and awe as we share the love and joy of God
This is a simple and meaningful time that enhances the Bible-Circle Time that the children are currently experiencing in their classrooms. We meet right before the end of the program morning session from 11:25 to 11:45. Families are also welcome to join us.
"For Where two or three come together in my name,
there am I with them."
Matthew 18:20

Along with our monthly themes we will be teaching, modeling and practicing basic traditional values. Sometimes in today’s hurry-up world, we rush through the most important fundamental principles that build character and integrity. Naturally, we all want what is best for children and our intentions are heartfelt and true, however, how conscious are our efforts? Are we investing the necessary time in guiding our future generation? When asked what families wish for their children to learn, having good values and being good people are consistently at the top of every parent’s list. And as early childhood educators we recognize the significance and believe that it is our responsibility to support this desire.
As we begin to emphasize good values with children, we will also reveal the fruit of the Spirit which God says brings us closer to Him. The fruit of the Spirit are the qualities of character God grows inside of you. It's God at work within us.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control."
Galatians 5:22-23
We believe that together we can teach our children traditional values while revealing God’s purpose for us by embracing the fruit of the Spirit in a manner which will build character and grace.
