As an adult, if you would like to take a glance at the mock Tabernacle that was created for the children’s rotation this time, please fill more than welcome to visit it in the Children’s Wing.

Nursery News
We will be staring a new Sunday school class for the babies. This will be held in the Nursery While the older children are in the regular Sunday school rotation. I hope to see all the babies from birth to 2 years in this class. We will have music, movement, and lots of fun. And once again, Thank you for sharing your children with us!
FOCUS on the R.O.C.K. (RAISING OUR CHURCH KIDS)
The toddler years are critical to the child’s future attitude toward authority. He should be patiently taught to obey without being expected to behave like an adult.
